posted by Shiva Sanei on Aug. 6, 2020, 4:49 p.m.


Hi, CSSS gang.


So, contrary to not so popular belief, it'll be kinda hard to host this semester's End of Semester Social at Club Ilia. As such, the CSSS is only somewhat proud to announce that this semester we'll be hosting our (っ◔◡◔)っ 🌟 Worst End of Semester Social 🌟 yet. Join us at our discord server at discord.gg/sfucsss and celebrate in a responsible and law abiding manner that the SFU administration would be proud of.


Here's the details:

When: Friday, August 7th at 6:00PM

Where: The comfort of your own home. (oh, and discord.gg/sfucsss I guess)

Who: The coolest people that the Comp Sci major can get you.

What: Jackbox Party Pack, Skibbl.io, other stuff. Aka The most fun you'll ever have during this Finals season. 


Pop and Food will be provided if you live somewhat close to a place with decent delivery and don't mind paying for it yourself. 


Hope this event doesn't disappoint you any more than it already has.
