stUDents’ UnIon offICers aDDress

Hi Guys,

Welcome to the first edition of expliCIT for the Academic Year 2016. To all new

students a warm welcome to CIT, we wish you all the very best as you embark on the start of your journey in third level education, a huge milestone in your lives. To all returning students, welcome back, we hope you all enjoyed the summer break and are looking forward to another year ahead here in CIT. We are honoured and privileged to be your elected Students’ Union Executive for the year ahead. It is the role of the SU to actively represent its members and continuously work towards the improvement and en-hancement of the student experience, and you can rest assured that YOUR Students’ Union Executive will be constantly work-ing tirelessly in this regard for the duration of our time in office. We look forward with great enthusiasm to the year, we have no doubts it will be an exciting and rewarding one for you all. Getting the Balance Right College life is all about getting the balance right, while you’re here have a fantastic time, go to absolutely everything you can possi-bly fit in but always remember why you’re

here in the first place, to get the best pos-sible education you can! Trust us cram-ming over-night is no craic at all. Box clever throughout the year and always put your studies at the forefront of your priorities. #SUWordsOfWisdomCommunication with the Student Body Throughout the course of the year we will use a range of mediums of communication to interact with YOU, our members. The main ones will be:• Social Media: Be sure to like our Face-

book page: CITSU and follow us on Twit-ter: @CITSU

• Website: www.citsu.ie – The SU Website has been greatly enhanced over the last couple of years and contains useful infor-mation galore and will continue to be up-dated on a regular basis.

• Snap Chat & Instagram: CIT_SU – They say a picture tells a 1000 words, why not send us a snap or Insta?

• General Meetings – All students as mem-bers of the SU are invited and encouraged to attend General Meetings, a great way of finding out what’s happening around the place and the ins and outs of how the insti-

tute is managed etc. All of these meeting will be advertised throughout the campus up to a week prior to these meetings, so be sure to keep an eye out. All students can submit an agenda item for General Meeting by contacting the SU.

As a union we believe communication is key, we need and want to hear from our mem-bers. #TogetherWeAreStrongerGetting here We would urge all students to give them-selves plenty of time to get to CIT when commuting via public transport or driving, in particular, early in the morning, the re-ality of the situation is that CIT’s location here in Bishopstown is an extremely busy one. Also, be sure to consider all possible routes in terms of getting close by to CIT, to beat the traffic etc. e.g. the 208 bus service is an alternative to the 205, with less than a 10 minute work from Curraheen Road to CIT. The 220 offers a viable alternative to the 219 for those commuting in from Douglas, with the drop off point for this service be-ing Model Farm Rd…less than a 5 minute walk through Parchment Square and you’d be in CIT.In terms of the construction of a much awaited on campus bus shelter the funding and plans are in place for this and we look forward to seeing work commencing on this soon. In regards, to public transport we urge all students to conduct themselves in a man-ner befitting to that as if your Mammy was sat alongside ya, whether it’s in the morning on your way into college or on the way into town for a night time event. Remember that all buses have CCTV installed…Bus Éireann is watching you. Students of CIT at all times are representative of the student body of CIT and as such we as a Union want that to be a glowing one. There’s an old saying and a very true one, don’t do the you know what on your own doorstep! The Union has built up a strong working relationship with Bus Éireann in recent years, to ultimately benefit our students. This is one we will strive to uphold and to do this we need all students’ assistance and cooperation. Class Reps It is vital that each class elects a Class Rep-resentative at the beginning of the academic year. This person acts as a representative for

their class and is their class’s chief spokes-person, very much the voice of the class. One of their main duties is reporting back to the SU Executive at Union Council Meetings in relation to particular issues which are of concern to the group.It is important that the person who is elected is committed to the position, not only will they speak for the class but they may also organise class parties and social events. College is not just about studying, it is im-portant that you have an active social life and the Class Rep is there to organise such events so that classmates can form close friendships. A trained representative will visit classes at the beginning of the first semes-ter, in order to facilitate the elections of class representatives. This will be done in partner-ship with a member of academic staff.Some benefits of becoming a Class Rep:• Opportunity to exercise leadership and ini-

tiate change• Opportunity to voice the opinions, con-

cerns and ideas of your classmates so that they may be addressed

• Receiving first-hand information from the lecturers and the Students’ Union regard-ing their activities and services

• Enhance your CV• Build and improve on your communication

and public speaking skills etc.• Acquire many useful people skills• Learn how to organise successful events• Opportunities to attend various training

events and Forums throughout the year. Class Rep training will take place on Tues-day 4th October this year. During the train-ing day elected Class Reps will be shown the ropes and will acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to actively represent their class from the get-go. At the end of the year each students will have the opportunity to nominate their Class Rep for a Union Council Award. The Union Council Awards recognise outstand-ing Class Reps for their contribution to their class and the Union as a whole. Each Class Rep will also receive a Certificate of Merit.Class Reps play a huge role in the work of the Students’ Union and aid our progression and success in actively representing all the students of CIT. It is a big responsibility, but brings with it an education in itself!! Can you be the voice of your class? Go for it, it’s a decision you’ll never regret.Welfare CampaignsOur VP Welfare, Ruth, will run a series of welfare campaigns throughout the year. These campaigns will help you to manage personal issues which you may be faced with such as sexual health, mental health, physical health, accommodation, safety, finance, bullying, addictions and so many other welfare issues which may arise for you as a student. The campaigns will take place in the main corridor of the main building by the canteen.Our first campaign is S.H.A.G. (Sexual Health Awareness and Guidance) which will take place October 11th - 13th. Our Mental Health Campaign will run in November from the 8th - 10th. In December before exams we will run Exam De-Stress from the 6th-8th. Please ensure to pick up a copy of our expliCIT magazine in the main corridor each month. This will feature timetables and

articles on each campaign as well as com-petitions and how to sign up to attend vari-ous workshops.Welfare Crew – Do you have what it takes to become a Welfairy?It has been a very busy summer preparing campaigns. In the next few weeks we will be looking for students to be part of the Welfare Crew. The Welfare Crew help out in all campaigns and have so much fun, while learning new skills when doing so. If you are interested in being part of the Welfare Crew, please email Ruth on [email protected] or text 086-3842977. #HonTheWelfairysWelfare TuesdaysOn Various Tuesdays throughout the year Ruth will run Welfare Tuesdays. These Tues-days will consist of campaigns on various issues as well as condom giveaways. Our first Welfare Tuesday is on Tuesday Septem-ber 13th – Be Safe Day. This day will focus on being safe in college and on nights out as well as in your accommodation.

Don’t walk home alone.We are encouraging everyone on a night out to NOT walk home alone. Please look after your friends. Make sure to either walk in a group or get a taxi. Put aside money for your taxi home. You can also organise to meet your friends at the end of a night out and all go home together. Plan your trip home as much as you plan your night out. Have a taxi number on speed dial, pre book it or Hailo. Make sure your phone is fully charged before you go out too. Don’t walk around the city on your own – tag along with a friend. Drink responsibly and know your limits when it comes to alcohol. Don’t be the one to leave home for a night out and not return home.Is there a wannabe Charles Dickens out there…?Do you have a story to tell, that will be of interest to the students and staff of CIT? If so, we want to hear it. Send it onto Keith at [email protected] and if we can we’ll publish it within future editions of ExpliCIT.Respect For Your EnvironmentWhen you’re passing by an elderly resi-dent’s garden, think to yourself would I like someone doing unmentionables there if that was my Grandmother’s? The Students’

Union Executive have worked extremely hard over the past number of years in fos-tering good relations between students and the local residents we hope this may long continue, after all we want the students we represent to have the best possible reputa-tion, and our job in many ways to ensure and protect this. IF YOU BOUGHT IT BIN ITLast preach we promise, please be con-scious that all catering outlets are self-catering and as such rely on students to dispose of their rubbish, and to put cutlery in the designated areas etc. We urge all stu-dents to do so. The staff in these areas work extremely hard, so your help and coopera-tion in regards to this would be much ap-preciated by them and us. Last year a Food Ban was implemented in the Student Centre Common Room, this was removed at the end of the last Aca-demic Year on a trial basis and this will be still the case for the duration of the month of September. Should students be viewed to be not treating this area with the respect that it deserves, disposing of rubbish etc. the Food Ban will be re-implemented with immediate effect. Remember guys that CIT has many links with external organisations many of these potential employers, so we do not want the first thing they think when they walk through the front door to be something like ‘That crowd treat the place like a dumping ground’.USI National CampaignThe Cassells Report – a report into the fu-ture funding of third level education was re-leased on Monday 11th July.The report presents a new opportunity, one of the advocating of a publicly funded third level education system. Students’ Unions Presidents from all over Ireland came together in Athlone IT to dis-cuss the Cassells Report. From this, every President has signed a letter in response to the report arguing against a loan scheme for students. Shane Falvey (SU President) was elected onto the Union of Students in Ireland Cam-paigns sub-committee at the July National Council, and as such contributed to the national campaign on behalf of CITSU.A national demonstration will take place in Dublin on October 19th – further details on this will be available in the next edition of expliCIT and will be emailed to all students. We look forward to the participation of stu-dents in this action, which could prove to be monumental to the decision made on the fu-ture funding model employed for third level education sector. A decision which could affect not only current members of the stu-dent body but students for generations to come. Bye for Now!We really look forward to meeting and en-gaging with many of you over the course of the year. May the year be a productive, happy, fun packed #YOLO and successful one for you all. Always remember YOUR SU is here for YOU. Have a great Fresher’s Week Guys!Best Wishes,Shane, Ruth, Denise Dave, Dan, Rebekah

FIRST ARTICLE, I am going to talk about the issues surround-ing the government’s report and recommendations regarding third-level education funding (11-07-16). There has been three op-tions given; firstly the abolition of student contribution and full state investment, secondly the current hybrid system being retained and expanded and thirdly the “study now, pay later” loan system. What I have always deemed the tragedy about our nation is that we Irish have never been able to maintain the pledge of the 1916 proclamation to “cherish the children of the nation equally”, and thus provide an equitable future for all its citizens. And the way they treat third-level education is no exception. Ireland undoubtedly made strides since the 1960’s in investing in third level education, and the establishment of Regional Technical Colleges from that time on, culminating into the Insti-tutes of Technology of today is one example of this evidence. However, we have relied for too long on the second option – the hybrid system - , because, Ireland being Ireland, it tends to be a compromise between opportunity and cyni-cism. It has worked that way because it gives the ostensible expression of fair education funding. However, due to the means-tested nature of the system, not everyone is able to receive such aid, and sadly, Official Ireland – with our establishment parties acting on their behalf - are only too content to use this fact to ensure that, through their children being able to afford third level education without the need of aid, the greater student body are not going to feel any extra-confident about their pros-pects before, during and/or after college – we saw that when the Fine Gael/Labour coalition, announced progressive raising of college fees in Budget 2013 (December 2012) that has not been reversed since. The third option, “study now, pay later” would be not be feasible, be-cause this option is only feasible for countries like the United States and Australia with their adaptably sizable economies, and their ac-cording prospects.The first option – full state investment – is the one that should be adopted, for it is standard in most European countries. It should have in fact been brought in back during the Celtic Tiger Years; had this been given priority, Ire-land would have developed real economic re-silience that would be bringing us into major strides. However, thanks to the then-govern-ment of Bertie Ahern mismanaging our nation and our economy towards the infamous 2008 Bank Guarantee and, subsequently, the 2010

Bailout, the failure to even consider this at the time has been a major factor in setting Ireland back economically for probably de-cades to come. And this also says much about the attitude of the EU/ECB towards Ireland; despite their assistance in our educa-tional growth, through funding and Erasmus, this has been negated into insignificance through shafting Ireland into the 2010 Bailout; for the bailout has, inter alia, robbed colleges, students and the nation of money that could have been invested in third level education and funding, plus without fees being raised or even today’s proposals being published. Thus emphasising the EU/ECB, and several of our “partners”, notably Germany, are not our friends.If opportunity presents itself, one should take it if it does so. Many students may feel a sense of indifference to this very issue at present, whether they get assistance or not. They may feel that it is only a few years, and as long as the name of the Institute - with the neces-sary grade - is on the CV, than that is what you need for employment that pays enough for your roof over your head, the weekend drinks and the annual holiday to Santa Ponza. Romantic idealism, I’m afraid, for expectation does not long catch up. If they are not going to take this issue seriously, what is that going to say about what will be thrown at them later in life? For post-college, there will (usually) be the prospect of mortgage (the country since the boom years being at the mercy of the property market), marriage and kids – they will have to go to college one day themselves, yes? - along with all the obstacles that come with them, thanks in no small part to our es-tablishment turning these into mountains that require either luck, guts and/or cash to get over. And the establishment have managed to do so because they banked on the apathy and indifference of the broader populace when the boom was booming, and they did not realise what they had given themselves over to until it was too late to act on time in 2010.This is more than just about student wellbeing.

This is about how students will see themselves, develop and evolve so as to become the upstanding citizens that we need in this country, and so their children, in turn, will cherish. It will send the correct message to our government, and the EU, that students, along with the rest of the nation, have to be able to get through what they have to with respect and dignity, and the broader populace do not come 2nd to vested interests. So when the CITSU/USI organise the events needed to get this message across – Go Out, Get Involved, Make Your Voice Heard. It is your future, and for our futures, after all.

SECONDLY, I am going to bring up a seri-ous issue regarding the recent Brexit vote.Erasmus students are welcome in CIT and all third level institutes, for they have given Irish students the chance to make friends with stu-dents from other European nationalities, and to study in European colleges at minimal has-sle and cost. However, this could be negated into insignificance when it comes to German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s icy decision NOT to give Ireland special status when it came to the implementation of Brexit (13-07-16), when Taoiseach Enda Kenny went to Berlin to stress the need to maintain our Common Area with Britain, and the border status with Northern Ireland since the Good Friday Agreement. It still rankles badly enough that Germany under her reign was mainly responsible for coercing Ireland into the 2010 Bailout that will be felt for decades to come here. Merkel may have given a small glimmer of hope with her recognition of our Common Area, which pre-dates the EU, but this does not guarantee anything; if any-thing, there is a very real possibility that Ireland will end up squeezed in the middle, for Ger-many, the dominant EU power, will undoubt-edly feel the need to deter any other country from leaving the European project, and in turn, diminish their dominance.However we may feel about Britain’s recent decision, it is important that our Common Area be protected. Not only because to allow the free-trade between our two islands and the free movement of Irish and British people, with the large Irish community living over in Britain, and the large number of students on both sides who have benefited through Erasmus from study in Institutes on both islands. This is potentially a matter of life-and-death. The majority of students here may not be aware, but when the situation with Northern Ireland boiled over from 1968 onwards, it sucked Ire-land and Britain into a dirty war; I remember plenty of tragic news stories reporting the lat-est outrage, usually tit-for-tat, and the relent-less misery that followed. Also, the island had to manage stringent border checks in order to check the violence, while trade and movement suffering accordingly. Also, countless Irish

people working – and studying - over in Brit-ain suffered discrimination and even assault, while English people working and studying in Ireland received similar hostility as a result of The Troubles. It was the hard work and deter-mination of the governments on both islands, along with the leadership of determined fig-ures in the North that led to the 1994 cease-fires, the 1998 Good Friday agreement, and finally the special friendship that exists be-tween Ireland and Britain today. But things are still fraught socially and economically between the two communities in the North at present, and any hard border could cause things to quickly break down again.And that is why, whatever the cost, Ireland, both the government and the people, must stamp it out to Germany – and the EU - that our Common Area, our Border status and the Good Friday Agreement must be preserved at all costs – we have too much at stake. The British realise this too. And if Merkel and the EU attempt to force our hand on this one, it will show that we are not equal partners in the European Project; we are its second-class citi-zens. And this will further enforce to other EU countries that the needs of its citizens come a distant second to the elite and the powerful. Should it come to this, Ireland would want to consider leaving the EU as well.It is important that we also make our voice heard on this one, both to our government representatives, and to the various European Embassies and EU bodies in our country. Also, there should be greater awareness of the need for Erasmus students to be made aware of the issues there at present. The alternative en-forced on us is too much to even contemplate.

WHAT’S THE CIT-UATION ERE?!Hope everyone had a great summer. How was yours? I assume that you did a few things; be it work over the summer, work on a J1 Stateside, rock it up with Beyonce or the Electric Picnic, cheer on The Boys In Green over in France, party in Ibiza or hope for county glory in the All-Irelands!

My best experience over the summer was heading over to Lille, France, to watch Ireland V Italy. Even though I spent my week over in Belgium (took in a lot of touring), it was with a childhood friend, and this enabled us to travel together (with a group) and see the match. The banter in the bars and hotels was something else, and when we got into the stadium, the atmosphere was like a cauldron. But when Robbie Brady got the goal, the night was made – it was the best birthday pressie ever (celebrating that moment, left; it was my birthday that day, June 22nd). I was still tired the next morning, but I had to awaken to get my exam results (a triple celebration!).

Two other trips that can compare would be a trip at the end of May to Utrecht to meet some good friends studying on Erasmus whom I met in CIT. There was lots of culture and sightseeing to be done, and lots of beer too!! Another would have been The Stone Roses up in Marlay Park last July, and I am sure that many of ye would have been there enjoying the craic there… unless of course, some of ye were Beyonce fans ! There was plenty of jamming sessions in Temple Bar, and later, after Ian Brown and Co. rocked Marlay with their hits, I could see Croker glow rosy; whether Queen Bey was still strutting her stuff then I cannot say for sure.

Having told these stories, the point I am making is that make sure that you all share your experi-ences with each other so as to ensure that there will be plenty of promise and aspiration to look forward to over the course of the year: it will not be long passing by. And do not be afraid to let the experiences show over yerselves; it will be important to let any first-years who are looking to connect with people now they are starting a new journey in their lives – we were all like that at one stage of our lives - and we may need to meet one another again at some stage in the future. Freshers Week is the best time to get accustomed with one another, with entertainment, opportunity and social aspects to come, so get out there, get involved and do not be afraid. Not to mention the sports and societies weeks that will give people the opportunity to get together and involved in groups with your respective hobbies and interests. So – BE BRIEF, CARPE DIEM.

HAPPY DAYS – Fresher’s Week!! The comedy is something else, among other things!!

MEND YER WAYS – Dem summer days won’t be around forever…

My CIT Students’ Union

Experience-Barry Cahil

My name is Barry Cahill, and last year I became the second recipient of the CIT Presidential Citation, it’s hard to put into words what it meant to me to receive such an honour from the college.

Last year was a massive year for me as I was 24 going to collage for the first time, wondering would I “fit in” with my class and how would I cope with course work. I re-member my first day in CIT, I went into a hall filled with other mature students and then Shane Falvey came in to talk to us about the Students’ Union, and let’s just say it was a bit of a comedy show as he couldn’t get his stand to stay up, he was only meant to be there for five minutes, but he was still there 20 minutes later and he was for lack of a better word inspirational. Even though things where falling down around him, he wasn’t fazed by it at all and had this can do attitude.That’s what made me want to become a Class Rep and the more you get to know all the gang in the Students’ Union the more you feel you can accomplish, you get this support network around you, and you can’t walk down a corridor without running into someone else in-volved in the U nion. Then there is the other side of it, you get to help out your class your friends and it gives you a chance to improve your personal skills such as listening, debating, and negotiating, all skills that will help you in your future. I know I was meant to talk about the award but to be honest, it’s the work I put in that made it possible, and none of it would have been possible if I didn’t become a Class Representative. I would just like to thank my class for giving me the chance to do great things, and hopefully more in the years to come . . .

Welcome to CIT12

Good StartTo get you off to a Good Start at CIT your first five weeks of college are going to be jam-packed with Good Start activities. Good Start aims to help you to find your way by focusing on success, belonging, motivation and independence; the whole student experience. The Good Start programme of fun, social, sporting, study and support sessions and events will help you become familiar with the campus, settle in, meet people, get prepared for study and find out who’s here to help.

The TeamThe Good Start Ambassadors here at CIT aim to help you to settle into college life and make your transition into college life as pothole and wobble free as possible. During Registration Day you met

What to ExpectBeginning a new experience can bring up all kinds of feelings and doubts; excitement, anxiety, fear, happiness, uncertainty. You might ask yourself: Am I going to be able for this? Is this course the right one for me? What if I don’t like the subjects or find them too hard?What’s Normal? DO YOU KNOW?-Working hard is normal!-Asking for help is normal!-Feeling like you are not the best is normal!- Being stuck sometimes is normal!College is challenging, it’s supposed to be, but it isn’t impossible. As long as you go to class, do your work and stay focused, it can be a lot easier than you may think.

the team, remember them? Each member of the team has been in first year here once, they know what its like to be new. Look out for them; don't be shy, say hi they are here to help you settle in.

Tips to RememberYou are in charge of yourself

Attend all of your classes

Learning at college is different to college

Everyone wants good grades

You have to do alot of work outside of class

The lecturers and tutors want to help you

Use your computer!

Be proactive and choose to go to class, listen to lecturers, take notes and study

Alot of material is covered very quickly in college and in some classes attendance counts towards final grade

You will have to adjust your attention span to take in large amounts of information in short periods of time

Knuckle down as early as possible, everything you cover at college will be relevant to your future career

Homework, extra reading and preparing for exams and assessments can take up alot of time

Make contact, ask questions, when you don’t understand something ask for guidance and advice

Use your myCIT e-mail (check it regularly it is how CIT will contact you), Blackboard and online learning resources

You will recognise the team by their red hoodies and their Just Ask t-shirts.

The main difference between school and

college is that it’s up to you, you have to

take full responsibility for learning, which

is a big shock to the system after coming

from school. 2nd Year Engineering Student

Help is always there but you have to go

and get it. You need to take the initiative,

if you don’t understand something you

can look it up and then if you still don’t

get it you can go and find someone.

They’re not always chasing you up and

that’s possibly the main difference really.

CIT CANCER SOCIETYBarry CahillCIT Cancer Society would like to firstly wel-come all of you first year students to CIT and we hope you’re all settling in well. CIT Can-cer Society was founded in 2013 by Shane Falvey (Current CITSU President now in his second term) and since then it has had some tremendous students running it and support-ing it. Over the years I believe every chairper-son that was at the helm has left their own

legacy behind them whether it was an event that they came up with or a slogan that moti-vates people to join up. This year I have very big shoes to fill, and I’m hoping to reach a wider audience by doing events not just in CIT Bishopstown, but in Crawford, CSM and NMCI, the money that we raise will go to both local and national beneficiaries for support and research projects in relation the cancer.Cancer does not only effect the old it can af-fect us too! We need to research more ways to prevent and treat people with it...to do this we need to raise money and with your help supporting our many events over the next year I’m sure we can raise a lot of money for our charitys.This is what last year’s chairperson, Orla Shee-hy, had to say, “I got involved with the Cancer Society as it was an area I was passionate about and wanted to try and do my bit to help such a worthy cause. I was interested in working first hand with the local organizations in our area and finding out about their input

with treatment and support. I found this eye opening and inspiring that this work is going on so close by.”This is what the current PRO, Tracy Mullane, had to say, “Last year, as a first year, entering a college as big as CIT, can be very daunt-ing. I decided to join the cancer society as I knew it would help me settle in and make new friends outside my year and course. Being part of the society also helped me in work-ing as a team and working with our societies. It was very rewarding to see the money we raised go to brilliant charities that do fantastic work for people and their families who have been affected by cancer.”If you want to get involved, be sure to sign up on Societies Day, Facebook CIT Cancer Society, email us at [email protected] or get on to me Baz Cahill.Hopefully, by the time this has been issued someone will have thought me to use twitter.

The CIT Photographic Society received the CIT Societies Award for Best Society 2016. We are so proud to have worked so hard to have gotten this award but most of all we are proud to have built a society where our mem-bers can learn a new skill or practice their passion for photography. Many people who have been in our society know a thing or two about photography on an amateur or pro-fessional level and have their own cameras however there are people like me who came into the society knowing absolutely nothing about photography. I didn’t own a camera, not a digital and certainly not a DSLR (profes-sional camera) but the people who did taught me everything I know and that’s something I’ll always admire about our society, it’s that you can go from knowing nothing to knowing so much and getting to a stage where you can be proud of what you’ve achieved no matter how long it takes. And to know that when you’ve achieved something you can share that with others and pass the knowl-edge along.We now even have a few cameras that you can take on loan for an event or even for a few days to practice your skills.Our society tries to keep things interesting by going on trips around the country but also abroad. Some of our trips have been to places such as Hook Head in Wexford, Ca-hir Castle and Cashel in Tipperary, Ducketts Grove in Wicklow, Galway, Kerry and keeping

it as local as Fota Wildlife Park and as far as Milan and Brussels.We host a weekly workshop on campus where you can learn tricks such as long exposure, water splash, play with toys and objects and work with models. We also host two exhibitions each year where we choose a theme and anyone is welcome to submit a photograph. Last semester we tried a move-ment exhibition where our photographs hung with pride from the ceiling. We also got help from the music society and the origami soci-ety who brought the night together. This is al-ways a great event for all photographers’ es-pecially new photographers when they have their work shown to large crowds of people and they get a chance to really stand back and see something they’re proud of.Our society is a society that other societies seek help from as we do offer something very important and that’s capturing important memories around CIT and even outside of the college. We receive many invites from other society events, some annual events includ-ing all the college Balls, Battle of the Bands by the Music society and LGBT Prom by the LGBT society as well as many more events. We always need the help of photographers and even new photographers who are willing to learn. These events may seem daunting at first and maybe the first one you try isn’t your style but there will be an event perfect for you to photograph that you’ll enjoy.

We are always trying to switch things up like making our first calendars and by doing something different with our exhibition last semester. We also started introducing com-petitions every now and again to keep things fun.We hope that by joining our society you’ll find your niche in photography, you’ll learn new skills and meet great people. We hope that you most importantly have fun. We also hope that with photography you believe in yourself and have patience.

Last season was arguably one of the most bazzar in the history of the English game, all the big dogs were all bark with no bite, the mid-table constants became one of the most difficult sides to go up against, most notably West Ham United. 2015/16 was the year of the underdog, with Leicester City lifting the crown high above their heads, having narrowly avoided relegation just 12 months previ-ous.There have been some big changes this year with Jose Mourinho taking the helm and Manches-ter United, Pep Guardiola at City, Antonio Conte at Chelsea and Jurgen Klopp taking charge of his first full season. We also have to think of the newly promoted sides, Burnley, Middlesbrough and Hull City. Let’s not forget our champions Leicester City and how they will cope with the added pressure of Champions League Football.

I think we’re looking at a two horse race for the title with an outsider, The Jose factor might be enough to push United back to the top of the mountain, ep-ically with the additions of big names such as Ibra-himovic. I feel Arsenal are the team to beat, they have been knocking on the door for a long time now, and the only piece yet to be added to the puz-zle is a 20+ goal a season striker. While I do think Manchester City will come in at 3rd and Spurs at 4th, Liverpool could very well be this year’s dark horse, ever more so if they have favourable re-sults in the first five games. Liverpool will have one game a week with no European distraction, giving them plenty of recovery time in between games, but realistically 5th place would be a very good fin-ish for them.

The rest of the top 8 should be made up of Chel-sea, West Ham and Leicester City. Chelsea strug-gled last year, and I don’t think much has changed, only that the already aging squad is now another year older. West Ham are getting my 6th place as they look to be very close to the quality of the Top 4, however their participation in the Europa League

could hinder their chances as they are lacking in depth. Reigning Champions Leicester I expect to drop a few places, they have already lost Kante to Chelsea and it remains to be seen if they can hang on to the rest of their big stars, I’m going 7th or 8th for them, and I see them finishing 3rd in the Cham-pions’ League group.

Battling for survival will be the 3 newly promoted sides along with Sunderland and West Brom. Again it’s very hard to say who’s going down, I think this will be the year that we say goodbye to the masters of survival Sunderland, a lot of their squad are coming to the end of their careers, and unless the get a manager in place that can get a lacklustre team to click, I think last place has their name written all over it. Surviving will be West Brom and Middlesbrough, I think the experience of their players and managers will be enough to guide them to safety.

FANTASY PREMIER LEAGUEThis year CITSU are running a Fantasy Premier League from the official BPL website. This competition is free to enter and will start on match day 6. The stu-dent who scores the highest points each week will receive free entry to the Stu-dents’ Unions night club for them and a friend.
