Several activities are held each semester at ECU. The Guild Activities Officer is responsible for coordinating events such as O-Day, End of Semester Party, functions, entertainment and a variety of weekly activities in the ECU Tavern and Cafeteria.

The Guild also works in conjunction with all the Guild Clubs and University Schools and Faculties to assist with their Theme Weeks and events. 

 

 


 

BREAK OUT UPDATE

In a heinous alphabetic coincidence, the Swan Lounge's
Saturday night line-up is comprised wholly of bands beginning
with the letter H.
Starting at 8pm you can hear Heart's Moustache, Hybrid Aura,
HandsStandsForAnts and then hurling you onwards into your post pub Saturday night will be Hypnogogia.Happily they'll all be hanging around after their sets, so you'll get the chance to hold their hands, hump their legs, or ask how
the hell they came up with their handles.
