The Political Studies and Economics Society is a student-run organization that plans and holds
various interesting, fun and politically oriented events on and off campus. The
society starts each year in September in continues until May and it usually
meets about once a week to discuss recent events, news, and future plans the
society has in motion. The society typically sends a delegation of students to
the Canadian Political Science Students' Association annual conference each year
as well, which is one of the larger fund raising objectives it has. The society
is also a supporter of the Autism Society of Nova Scotia and attempts to donate
a moderate sum of money each year to the cause.
This year, the society's
meetings are being held every Wednesday at 4:30pm in Vinnie's Pub and Lounge on
campus in Rosaria Student Centre and we encourage any and all who would like to
attend to come. It's a chance for students from all areas, years, and programs
(members are not restricted to being in the Political Studies program) to come
and meet as friends, away from the stresses of the week. Lastly, if you are the
least bit timid in discussing politics amongst a group of peers remember this:
"It is not necessary to understand things to argue about them."-Pierre de
Beaumarchais. Those are words we live by every time we meet.
Hope to see you
there!
