Ok, so you've probably already heard about the Rhodes Union. It's an awesome setting for frequent, rocking nights out that will form a large proportion of your first year memories, as well as in your later years, but not as much so. Here's a word of advice for any Rhodes newcomers that want to start hitting the party scene straight away, and don't want to be left in the dust like some of the usual University drop-outs.

Know that 'Cane train' nights happen on Wednesday and Fridays, so try to ensure that you have no tuts or important lectures on a Thursday morning. There's nothing worse than having a big night out at the Union (which usually progresses into a full blown Union -> Rat -> Friars party crawl), and then needing to hit a challenging lecture/tut the following morning. If you do, make sure that you have KGB tablets available for hangover prevention, because it really can get pretty bad...

So that is just a quick tip, it may seem unimportant, but I promise you, you will thank me for the whole year long if you manage to land yourself in a 'convenient Thursday morning situation.'

Remember people, diggidy check yaselves before ya wreck yaselves.

Peace.
