OUT OF THIS WORLD

Here’s an update on the KC@uni project.

Last weekend I met with Janaka, the organizer of the UQ Bhakti Yoga Club and we talked about organizing some talks/discussions once a week at UQ. We also decided to do some more advertising for the club activities. Currently there is a yoga class once a week. Up until this week the only advertising was done through the club’s email list but on Monday we put up some posters around the St. Lucia campus. I took one of the old posters that I made for the Southampton uni Vedic Society several years ago, and I made some changes to the text. You can download the poster as a word document here.

I went along for the yoga this Wednesday and four other people came. Next week the yoga class will happen in one of the busiest parts of the campus, on the grass near the library. We are doing this as part of diversity week and it is advertised in the diversity week poster. Hopefully it will attract some more people to join in.

We have booked a room on campus for the talks and discussions that start from next Thursday. I have made a poster/flier to cover the rest of the semester. You can see it below. The poster was originally made by Candidasa for use in Southampton and I just changed the text to advertise the UQ events.

On Monday we have a food stall on campus for diversity week. We will sell some prasada snacks and we’ll also use that as an opportunity to advertise our club and make contact with potential members. We’ll have some books on the stall too.

I am still collecting names and email addresses of interested students at Griffith Uni. Until we have a club there, I will invite those students to the UQ club. I am starting to get some contacts at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) too.
