Bulletin the University of Sussex newsletter   Next Article      Contents

Noticeboard

During the Autumn term the Bulletin will be produced fortnightly. We will therefore include two weeks' lectures on the back page. Please make sure that you get information to us in time for the copy deadline. Lectures, seminars and colloquia that miss the deadline will be put on the web at www.susx.ac.uk/information_office/bulletin/ which will be updated every Friday.

As the Bulletin is being produced fortnightly there is no room on the back page for small ads. All adverts sent in will now be displayed on the web version. Please try to keep adverts to 20 words or less.
