Bull pen pitches 🫣

If you walk into the Nest and see a mechanical bull, don’t question it.

Announcements

Weekly friendly reminder that term 1 photo section meetings will be Tuesdays at 4pm at the Ubyssey office in the Nest (room 2208). They’re open to everyone and a good chance to chat, pick up pitches, receive feedback and ask any questions.
Make sure you join the facebook group and discord! Email pitch-lists will go out once a week but rolling pitches will be posted on facebook and discord as soon as I get requests for them.
We still have some slots open for boothing at club days if you’d like to join!
