Assessment Centre Workshop

USP Productions: The Dark Web

Show time:
• 2 February (Friday) and 3 February (Saturday), evening show @ 8pm
• 4 February (Sunday), matinee @ 3pm

The Dark Web plays host to the worst of human depravity and the best of its dreams, shielded from real life by the screen of anonymity. But the veil only goes one way: you don’t know them, but they know you. Watch as one unsuspecting family finds their lives thrown into disarray by the insidious machinations of those behind the veil.

The Dark Web is a play that examines the culture and implications surrounding the part of the internet known as the ‘dark web’, where users and their activities are concealed behind layers of anonymity and encryption, and content ranges from the innocuous and noble to the depraved and frightening. At its core, however, the play is centred around its characters and their stories, serving as a thought-provoking exploration of the human condition.

NUS-Waseda Double Degree Programme Sharing Session

QR Centre Programming Week (1st Workshop): Excel Visual Basic Applications

The QR Centre is organising two workshops for those in the USP community interested in programming. These workshops are run by USP students who are computing enthusiasts.

The 1st workshop is Excel Visual Basic Applications (VBA). It aims to share some of the fascinating capabilities of Excel that can be unlocked through VBA, such as automation of tasks, so you do not have to sieve through tons of data or constantly type extremely long formulae. Participants will learn the basics of VBA programming, culminating in the development of a simple programme to calculate income tax.

The Sessions: Voluntourism & Social Justice

Volunteering internationally is rarely just about doing good or being responsible to the “Third World”. USP alum Prof Sin Harng Luh, now working in the NUS Department of Geography, has written critical articles questioning the role of voluntourism in encouraging performed dependencies, and in the inherently biased power structures in the host-volunteer relationships. Yet, rarely would she tell people not to volunteer – in fact, she often strongly encourage volunteering. Why? Come find out at our first Sessions event of the year!
