The Women in Science, Engineering and Technology (WISET) network have extended invitations to Pulse members to attend their \u201cWomen in Academia\u201d awards ceremony, which starts next week. If you are interested, please contact us at uoslgbt@soton.ac.uk and we will send you the invitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To coincide with the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots, on Friday 28 June we\u2019re holding a lunchtime picnic social in the Valley Gardens on Highfield Campus (assuming the weather is kind to us, otherwise we’ll convene in B38, the Staff Social Centre.) The picnic will run from 12:00 \u2013 14:00 and is a great opportunity for us all to get together as a community and get to know each other better! Don\u2019t worry if you can only make it for part of the time, just bring your lunch along and we\u2019ll be delighted to see you! This event is open to all staff, students and visitors to the University. You can also join the Facebook event<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
