Sunday 3rd March sees a clash of the two biggest UQLS events on the calendar - the launch of the UQLS Book Club and the Suri Cup.
The Obiter can reveal this has left exactly two people who fall into the category of both cricket and novel lovers, in a complete pickle.
Thankfully, in a clever attempt to cater to this audience and stick to the theme of the Suri cup, the UQLS Book Club has just announced this week’s meeting will focus on a discussion of the ‘Shane Warne Autobiography’.
If they have enough time, the meeting will also discuss ‘The Complete Matthew Hayden Cookbook’ and ‘Howzat: the history of cricket jargon’. One member of the Book Club event suggested the group reads Adam Gilchrist’s autobiography ‘Walking To Victory’ in an attempt inspire the book club’s athletic capabilities.
The organisers of the Suri Cup have responded to this clash by innovatively replacing ‘tea time’ to ‘reading time’, a chance for the players to have 10 minutes of ‘quiet individual reading time’ during the match.
If the clash of these two events are successful, the UQLS is looking to organise more event ‘collaborations’.
One idea was hosting the social touch footy grand final at the venue of the law ball in an attempt to garner a greater audience.
There are also talks of hosting four-hour-long networking drinks at the first years camp to gently ease the first years into the legal industry.
More to come this Sunday.
