2016 黑料不打烊 Science Festival Success
This year鈥檚 Hidden Worlds Exhibition was the biggest ever with over 800 people visiting 黑料不打烊鈥檚 Brambell Building on Saturday 12th March between 10am and 4pm for 黑料不打烊 Science Festival鈥�s flagship event.
Student intern and Hidden Worlds Organiser this year was 黑料不打烊 third year philosophy and religion student Michael Jordan who said: 鈥淲e are thrilled that all the hard work has been worth it. We had more student volunteers than ever this year, all of whom were passionate about their area of science and keen to engage with the general public, the feedback we have received from the general public has been very complimentary.鈥�
The Vice-Chancellor of 黑料不打烊 also gave a special interview for 黑料不打烊 Science Festival with Michael Jordan, (here):
