April was a relatively quiet month except for the film night on the 8th. Everyone seems to be knuckling down to serious study – as mature students are wont to do!
Coffee mornings have been their most successful this semester which may have been helped by the Student Guild advertising them for us on its website. We’re pleased to say that these ‘chats’ are proving significant as we’ve been advised of two worrying incidents involving lack of security at the Mount Lawley student village. We are taking this further through the Guild and notifying the University. This problem highlights the difficulties that can occur when companies external to the University’s control are in charge of such services.
The 8 members who picked up their tickets for the showing of Like Father, Like Son at Joondalup Pines thoroughly enjoyed an excellent film. Fortunately we managed to find people to use the surplus tickets we were left with as the film ran for another five nights.
We take this opportunity to wish all our members success with exams/assignments/theses, etc. and look forward to recruiting members to help on our committee (which isn’t too onerous) as many of our founding members will be leaving at the end of this year. Commitment can be very rewarding and we’re keen to find new students to take on the challenge.

Research Request:
I'm an undergraduate student at the University of Queensland, and
one of my courses involves a research project looking at lifestyle
factors correlated with at-risk internet use and videogaming. The basis
of my research is a survey, designed by my supervisor
Dr Penelope Lind. The survey is for adults Australia-wide to complete,
and in this regard I'm asking for some help.
Want to get involved in real science research?
The QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute is seeking volunteers
to participate in a 30-45min online survey on internet use and
videogaming.
Thanks in advance!
