FAQ's

WHERE CAN I FIND SUBU ON SOCIAL MEDIA?

You can find us at FB.com/sububournemouth and @SUBUBournemouth on both Instagram and Twitter.

We Are Freshers:

wearefreshersbu - (Twitter and Insta)

Bournemouth University Freshers 2020 (Official) - (Facebook group)



IF I HAVE AN EVENT IDEA OR WAYS TO IMPROVE THINGS FOR THE FUTURE AND OTHER STUDENTS, THEN HOW CAN I BE HEARD?

You could email your us at - subu@bournemouth.ac.uk as we are always hungry for your feedback, or message on Facebook or Twitter. If you would like to become a part-time officer at SUBU then the elections happen in October so keep your eyes peeled on our websites.



WHEN WILL EVENTS BE ABLE TO TAKE PLACE AGAIN?

SUBU is planning events that comply with the Government Restrictions and BU campus reopening plan for September 2020. That will mean that many things will temporarily move online. Some orientation style events will be pretty much unaffected, however social events are still going to have to wait until the green light is given.



WHAT IS HAPPENING IN SEPTEMBER? DO YOU HAVE A LINE-UP?

Semester 1 will start on 21st September and SUBU will start running some freshers events from then. Clearly large social event s and parties still have to wait until the Government removes the restrictions on The Old Fire Station – but when it is given the green light the ‘delayed’ freshers week will let rip. We are also very hopeful to be running an outdoor Freshers Fair on 27th September.



I'VE SEEN OTHER EVENTS ADVERTISED ONLINE. . WHY DON'T YOU HAVE ANY?

DON'T BUY!!
We advise you not to purchase any tickets for any events at present as we feel it is irresponsible for any event organisers to be selling them not knowing when restrictions will be lifted by the Government. Official BU events will not go on sale until we know when restrictions will be lifted and we will inform you on our website when it is safe to book them. In the past people have had real difficulties obtaining refunds from some event organisations In Bournemouth, so be careful and our advice is don’t buy. Remember official BU events will have the BU or SUBU logo on them.



WILL THERE BE CLUB EVENTS?

We are organising Freshers as normal. We Are Freshers takes pride in organising events for every one to take part in. We are just unsure as of when certain events, such as nightclub events, will be able to take place. Once we have clarity from the Government, we can work on our events and when we will be able to bring these to you.



HOW CAN YOU TELL IF AN EVENT IS OFFICIAL?

All of our We Are Freshers events are clearly branded with the BU and SUBU logos and are run through this and the SUBU website (www.subu.org.uk) or the official Facebook group: Bournemouth University Freshers 2020 (Official)
