To: VAXB::DAAB1CC: Subj: RE: What do you do ? _A Brief History of Aaardvark._
Aaardvark was a society set up last summer term by our esteemed president
Stephen Brocklehurst, originally with the aim of producing a magazine to
provide an outlet for surrealistic humor. As the term progressed and the SU
proceeded to give us no money, we arranged several "amusing" (????????????)
incidents to attempt to establish the name of the society for the forthcoming
year. As this progressed, these events overtook the idea of the magazine in
priority. Our current projects now include . . .
1) the production of a couple of pre-magazine handouts, and the eventual
production of a full-length magazine by about week 7.
2) The organization of several more events, yet to be decided, to make peopel
laugh and to publicise the socsiety.
3) Perhaps te production of a radio show in collabration with URY (still very
spculative, but we're aquiring some materal at the moment) All in all, the
socsiety is summarized by our aims defined in our (nearing completion)
consitution . . . "to bring a smile to the face of the university.' Hope this
helps to enlighten you.
Colin (Treasurer!)
