NEWS: QUB crest appears on “Pre-Paddy’s Madness” poster
Monday, March 15th, 2010
It has been brought to The Gown’s attention that the Queen’s University crest appeared in the top left hand corner of posters advertising the GAA “Pre-Paddy’s Madness” night in the Bot last Tuesday. The crest appeared on the poster which advertises drinks promotions just days before St. Patrick’s Day, when the province’s media will hone in on QUB to monitor their reactions to celebrations in the Holylands. It also comes in the wake of a culling of hours for staff in the Union bars, as with profits down the Union is in the midst of attempts to attract more custom. A source within the University explained to The Gown that the QUB crest is generally only used for high profile ceremonies such as graduation.

NEWS: Sonya Mac leaves crowd unimpressed in Mandela
Friday, March 12th, 2010
The Union’s attempt to attract more students to the Thursday ‘Twisted’ club night by inviting DJ Sonya Mac to take over the decks has seemingly failed. This comes in the wake of the Union slashing working hours of bar staff. Declan Gallen (aka DJ Deci) lost his Thursday night slot to the Cool FM DJ from last night, and will now play in the Bunatee bar whilst Sonya Mac plays Mandela Hall. However, reports from last night aren’t good.
