13th June 2014 Dear CUMaS members, Congratulations for surviving this academic year! For those who are still having their exams, add oil! This is the last CUMaSKini before the start of the summer holidays 🙂 First and foremost, this is just a friendly reminder to members that we need to receive payment to secure your ticket …
Food for Thought – Misogyny, Feminism, and Gender “Are you a Feminist?” In my first year at Cambridge, two passionate and outspoken self-declared feminists put me on the spot. I was anxious because I knew that my answer was going to be “no” despite the fact that they had both given great speeches on gender …
23rd May 2014 Dear CUMaS members, The end is near! What I mean is the term is ending of course. Just two topics today so that you can get back to your studies. The first is just to inform everyone of the Garden Party deadline and the last but definitely not the least is we get discounts at the …

Just kidding. You didn’t really think we’d leave without a proper goodbye, did you? 😉
So what’s the scene, soya bean?
Soya think I am bean-curd. But I have no time tofu you into thinking miso funny.
Okay. Wow, jeez. So that was pretty bad.
But there is hope, because everything must come to an end; whether it’s winter, Lent term, or the horrible jokes of your Publicity Officer (lol. those were jokes?)
So without further ado, let’s welcome the newly-elected committee for 2014/2015! Congratulations, all of you! We hope everyone enjoyed the AGM last week (or at least the free food and sippy-sips at the back).
The new committee has our utmost support and we can’t wait for the amazing year they have planned for CUMaS, and hope to continue supporting and helping them should they ever need a hand 🙂 But they seem like they know what they’re doing. They’re a good bunch 😉
And now, all that’s left are a few good-byes from the 2013/2014 Committee.
It’s been a good run, we’ve really enjoyed being your comm, but more so, thanks for being such a supportive CUMaS family :’)

What’s the word, hummingbird?
Me again.
I know, I know, I’m sick of me too. But look, I come bearing thee news! Much news!
First off, presenting the Candidate Manifestos for the AGM 2014! Come watch your candidates fight to the death politely discuss their vision and capabilities as they vie for your love and support at our AGM next week. Also, don’t forget to sign up on the Voter Registration Form prior to the AGM.
With less than a week until MNight, don’t forget to purchase your tickets now before they all sell out! All tickets enter a raffle for free St. John’s formals!
In addition, we’re are in the Final 12 hours of the UKEC MNight Trailer Competition. So far, the support we’ve been receiving from all of you in the UKEC MNight Trailer Competition has been incredible! But we’re not calling it quits just yet. We still need a little push to achieve our goal of 5000 likes, so get sharing and liking! We promise you there will be a couple pleasant surprises along the way 😉

What’s the scoop, mushroom-soup? 🙂
Just a quick reminder that the deadline for the CUMaS Committee Manifestos is this Sunday! Also, with just over one week till the AGM, don’t forget that voter registrations are up. Whether you’re voting in person or by proxy, you’ll need to sign-up so we know we’re meeting quorum (yay, quorum!)
MNight is also fast approaching, so get your tickets now! Catch the CUMaS production of the year (also our only production of the year). Join our mismatched group of unlikely heroes as they attempt the ball crash of the century!
And while we’re on the topic of MNight, our trailer’s been entered into the UKEC MNight Trailer Competition in the run for £1000! This is money that would go right back into our events for you, making them bigger, better and more subsidised! But to win, we’ll need everyone’s help! That’s right, we need you! So, please check below for more details.
Teach For Malaysia also sends their regards and has a little thank you message for the great questions you had for them at our Education talk.
The Cambridge University Chinese Orchestra Society Annual Concert is also tomorrow, so check below to get tickets!
Let’s have a good Week 7, everybody!
