The Committee Are Losers & They're Your Bitches

Those are song lyrics, by the way. (Sort of)
The extremely pretty RockSoc committee aren't losers. They are, however, your bitches.
Elected each year by members, it's the committee's job to make RockSoc rock. This involves organising events such as club nights, live music gigs, pub crawls, managing our money, publicising the society and deciding what DJs to put out there.
Check out the committee profiles for an idea of what each person does.

Any Way You Want It

Got an idea? Think we could do better? Want something changed? Tell us about it! Although the committee are awesome, they can't read your mind. Please head over to the Contact Us page and get in touch with us if you want to say something.
You're also welcome to come to our regular committee meetings. These usually happen each Sunday at 8pm in the Students' Association's main bar.

Committee Profiles

Publicity Officer

Name: Peter Liddiard
Favourite Drink: Tesco Biere Speciale
Degree: Computer Science

Webitor

Name: Swetha 'Schweppes' Padmanabhan
Favourite Drink: Beer / Red Wine / Tequila
Degree: English Literature
About:
A tiny creature that some would even dare to call cute.
I basically manage the website and handle the events on Facebook. I'm also the one putting up all the wonderfully awkward photos of you for all to see. =)
If I'm not obsessively reading, Megadeth, Alter Bridge and Pink Floyd are blaring through my headphones.

Treasurer

Name: Sandra Brogren
Favourite Drink: Wine (of All Colours) & Cider
Degree: Art History & Management
About:
I’m the Swedish Treasurer of the Society who spends most of her time making sure to get in
all the receipts and cash to make sure we can create epic events for all our members and co.
When I’m not hassling people for money I like chilling with my Art History stuff in the
library (I’m weird like that). Or even better practicing my Pole skills to later, probably semi-
drunkenly, demonstrate at Rocksoc.
I love Rocksoc and am always down for a good ol’ headbang, so even if I don’t look like the
typical rocker; don’t fear to drag me along!

President

Name: Halvor Heggenes
Favourite Drink: Vodka
Degree: IR & Russian
About:
As your president this year, I am supposed to lead the society and make sure it maintains its reputation of greatness, drunkeness and debauchery. However, I intend to rely heavily on the rest of our experienced and beautiful committee, most of whom are probably more suited to my position than myself. That said, I do have my uses, and intend to make the most of them, and should you have any concerns, I am a nice enough guy, so don't hesitate to bring me all your comments, complaints and requests. Should you fail to find or reach me, I'm probably in Aikman's without signal, so come join me for a beer or six.

Radio Officer

Name: Emma McMullan
Favourite Drink: Red Wine / Jack Daniels & Coke
Degree: French And Spanish
About:
Having a great love of headphones and no musical talent myself, I'll be contenting myself as RockSoc's new Radio Officer by playing music by people who do. Each week I'll be (hopefully) pleasing your ears with everything from Guns n' Roses to Green Day, Alice Cooper to Avenged Sevenfold, Velvet Revolver to Versailles. Got an idea for a theme? Want to have your fifteen minutes of fame on the airwaves? Then I'm the woman to talk to.

ENTs Officer

Name: Luke 'Ruri' Hodgman
Favourite Drink: Laphroaig
Degree: French
About:
Musician and part-time headcase with a fondness for hedgehogs. A dedicated member of both RockSoc and the ENTs crew, so it only stands to reason I'm the ENTs officer, right?
I generally like dancing about like a madman on the floor to most of the music that the DJs play during club nights - as many will attest - but my favourite bands and musicians include Radiohead, Tori Amos and Biffy Clyro. Bit partial to some videogame tuneage, too. May have gone a bit more mental since coming back from living in France for a year.

DJ Officer

Name: Peter Sedlak
Favourite Drink: Double Screwdriver
Degree: Modern History
About:
Hi. My name's Peter and I'm the dude in charge of making sure our finely bred stable of DJ talent is walked, watered and fed at least once a day. I love rock music and love RockSoc even more, partially because both of these allow me to make drinking a lifestyle rather than a cause for alarm and partially because I have a huge love of tattoos and piercings, so I just naturally gravitated to this awesome society.It's like if you made a Venn diagram of 'incoherent mess' and 'awesome', the overlap would be shaded 'RockSoc'. That's why I'm here, and I suspect it's a part of why you're here too. If you like what you hear from our DJs, don't like what you hear, think you can DJ too or even think you can do it better - let me know! We're always eager to get fresh blood in. And if you do make it big, someday - and that day may never come - I'll call upon you to do a service for me. Until then, consider these club nights a gift.

Secretary

Name: Katrina McCorry
Favourite Drink: Malibu & Diet Coke
Degree: Psychology
About:
Hey hey RockSoc! I'm the person who writes down everything that goes on in committee meetings. For me, RockSoc is by far the best thing in this town, what with all the awesome people and amazing music. You'll usually spy me jumping around on the floor looking like an idiot but if you catch me during a still moment come up and say hi! I promise I won't bite. Unless you're into that ;)

Vice President

Name: Aaron Cunningham
Favourite Drink: Tequila / Beer / Wine
Degree: Ancient History
About:
I'm vice-president, previously I was radio officer and I'm also a DJ. I'm an executive member, helping out Halvor and getting stuff done (hopefully).
I'm a complete sixties-ophile and spend most of my life with my headphones on. Or failing to play guitar to an acceptable standard.
I love a range of rock and love the society.
