Roundtable Discussion Fundraiser

What Is a Roundtable Discussion? Our annual roundtable discussion focuses on discussing topics we and other societies feel are important, in a safe and supportive environment. Everyone is welcome to come along to contribute to the discussion, or just to listen. If you choose to donate (please scroll down for more details on entry) you will receive a self-care goodie bag including hot chocolate, positive messages, stickers and more. Refreshments will be provided at the event. Societies Involved This will be a collaborative event, and we are hoping to invite a few other STEM societies at the university. You are welcome to join even if you are not part of these societies, or if you're not studying a STEM subject!
