Law freshers week is the worst planned oweek ever. The games (to their credit quite fun) are horribly planned and managed, the ogls and committee always never know what is going on and everything is always delayed, pushed back repeatedly or straight up cancelled. Specifically, during the firm visit, 1/4 of us had it virtually and was essentially a waste of time, whereas the others got to travel to various law firms in mbfc and network with lawyers. The first 3 days were almost all talks which we had to sit through while most ogls and the committee left the audi to play ping pong in the lounge.
Some y1s are also extremely cliquey and an exclusive group of y1s are always skipping talks together and ditching their ogs to have meals together.
Additionally, the rnf head has been forcing y1s to go for flag day even when we have valid reasons such as work. She seems to suggest that if we are unable to come, we have to ask our family to donate so that our “quota” can be hit.
Overall an upsetting experience 🙁🙁
