Start of term relaxation
Gather in the Mitre from 8pm.

Second Week (Saturday 4th May)

A pleasant walk up the river in summertime. Meet outside Somerville at 6pm.

Fourth Week (16th May)

We will be celebrating the twentieth anniversary of the founding of the Society in 1982 with a garden party at St Hilda's College, from 2.30pm, and then a banquet in the evening. Contact the society account for more details: arthsoc@herald.ox.ac.uk

Eighth Week (14th June)
Punting
The society will pole off down the river in search of The Once and Future King, but find it's available from all good bookshops. The readers of this termcard groan at the author of this page's excuse for a sense of humour. Departure is likely to be from St Hilda's College.
