I found both social and academic events enjoyable this semester. Being a first year student having events organised by the law society and the ability to get involved greatly helped my sense of comfort at Abertay. Attending law society events allowed me to meet other students and gain knowledge from their experience at the university. It also made me feel like I was a part of something a feeling which in such a new and scary environment can be close to impossible. The welcoming atmosphere of the law society is something I am incredibly grateful for.
