5 years ago Could I suggest shifting this further back? This first week is pretty packed already so there isn't much time. The proposal is phrased to seem to be looking for a suggestion, so 1st week of school in evening if you see the schedule: https://open.sutd.dev/discovery-week-working-title/proposal_details/
if you want, 23rd is possible, between 1700-1900.
otherwise, I will need you to tell me a specific date and time so I can include it in the schedule/calendar please!
Oh! otherwise you could include it as part of the "Lab visits" and have a ROOT COVE open room(house)?

Session Name
ROOT GRASS Session (Gongcha up for grabs!)
Abstract
The first GRASS Session for Freshmores! GRASS is ROOT's engagement platform for us to be transparent about university and ROOT matters, involve you in our projects and to hear about concerns that you might have.
Tell us your feedback about Orientation and ask us anything you would like to know about SUTD! We will also be sharing with you some SUTD hacks that could be useful to you in your journey in SUTD.
Student Organisation organising this session
The GRASS session will be organised by the ROOT Communications team.
Session intent (what to expect)
The main objective is to introduce Freshmores to GRASS as a platform for us to engage them and for them to share their concerns and get involved with us on projects that matter to them.
During this GRASS, we will be gathering feedback that they may have about Orientation through focus group discussions with the orientation organizing committee. To help the freshmores with the start of their journey, we will also have ROOT members there to answer any queries they might have and we will be preparing an SUTD hacks sheet for them to take with them when they come for the session.
The session will be held at ROOT Cove to also introduce the freshmores to the venue as a student recreation space and the max capacity will be approximately 40 students at a time. As the session is free and easy, students will be allowed to walk in and out freely and no sign ups are required.
ROOT members will be there to help facilitate the session.
Some snacks and drinks will be catered for students who attend the session and this cost will be borne by the student government.
The preferred date will be on the 1st week of school in evening.
