Court 17 students saved the most energy this year as part of the Student Village ‘Student Switch Off’ campaign.
As a well deserved reward all students from Court 17 were invited to celebrate at the Platform Bar on 1st May, with free drinks, music and (of course) plenty of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream!
Don’t be too downhearted – there are still opportunities to win other prizes. Like the Facebook page ‘University of Lincoln Student Switch Off’ (www.facebook.com/SSOLincoln) to keep up to date with our regular Facebook competitions.
