March is when our events really kick into gear - and this year is no exception! We hosted a Nottingham University Business School (NUBS) 25th anniversary event in the prestigious offices of PwC in London thanks to Kevin Ellis (Industrial Economics, 1984), followed closely by a similar event in Lagos.
This coincided with a number of other informal events across Africa led by James in our International Volunteering team, before he then handed over the baton to our NUBS team, who hosted several across Asia! Quite the whistle-stop tour.
Elsewhere, the university celebrated International Women's Day and Sustainability Action Week and we joined forces with the faculties to host a plethora of volunteering events on campus - thank you to those of you who took part.
And finally...for many of you, a trip to the legendary city centre music venue The Chameleon will have been a rite of passage, this month will see it host its final gig after two decades.
2. Another legendary Nottingham venue plays its last tune
The likes of Sleaford Mods, Royal Blood and many other well-known acts have played to music lovers at The Chameleon, one of the city centre's most beloved of venues, which is now set to close after two decades of service.
Tucked away down Newcastle Chambers just off Old Market Square, the bar, which has capacity for just 70, has become a legendary city centre spot for many. But after 20 years the owners are closing for good by the end of the month after their landlord sold the building within which it sits.
