Fancy yourself as a dab hand at tennis? Well, be prepared to re- ceive threatening emails from the Tennis Soc President. Last years President, Mark ‘Scotty’ Tyley, sent out an email from the society account accusing an unknown member of being “scum, sub-human scum” for stealing 50 euros from him at a party. He went on to change his mind at the end of the email saying he would “completely forgive” the person in question if they returned the stolen money.
Congratulations to Pi Newspaper’s Sam Johnson for being shortlisted for columnist of the year at the Guardian Student Media Awards. This is a surprise nomination, since Johnson was forced by his colleagues to resign as editor last December after making transphobic comments in his column “Pi Diary”. Presumably he nominated himself given the outright hostility shown to him by his previous Pi comrades.
Rumours abound that Pi Media is to lose its office in the Bloomsbury building. Malika Giles, editor of Pi Magazine, commented on the rumours: “But where will we put all of our iMacs?”
