With the club fair, classes starting, and getting used to university life, it can be hard knowing what’s going on at the U of O.

Welcome to the first edition of our Thryllabus. It’s a new catalogue designed to help students find out what’s going on throughout campus and to get engaged! Each listing is sorted by date, who sent it to us, when, and where. The September edition features a number of first general meetings for clubs, which is a great chance to try out something new. There’s also plenty of recurring events, like Theatre Thursdays or Quadball games, to give you something to look forward to each week.

If you see something you like, check it out! Club contact information is always included in the listing. Remember, if you go, tell ‘em the Fulcrum sent ya. Want your event listed on the thryllabus? Email [email protected].
