Some great social #psychology posters presented by the 4th years today at #RGU. You picked some excellent topics, and it was fascinating hearing about your ideas.

A list of course stalls in RGU's Riverside Building (the best ones are at the bottom!). It is a lovely day outside the Riverside Building.

#RGU Curious Minds event today/tomorrow @robertgordonuni.bsky.social. Lots of the #School team are involved with this. Today David Smith & Sheila Erskine will be giving their Cabaret of Dangerous Ideas talks on masculinity & food attachment, plus various research showcases.
It's our trusty RGU letters! Also useful to celebrate RUGs or GURs or URGs. A Curious Minds banner talking about the research festival.

What a lovely day! Celebrating with our 4th years, in the sunshine 🥳🥂🎓#Congratulations again, enjoy the long weekend
The RGU letters looking slightly wonky - is it my camera, or has it been at the fizzy wine (who can tell)? Our lovely 4th years, gamely pretending they haven't seen the wonky RGU letters. A table of party food. Sausage rolls and buns as far as the eye can see...

Good luck to everyone sitting exams. You've got this!
A hand-crafted motivational message. Written in green highlighter on a yellow post-it note, is the message 'Good luck!'. It is accompanied by a four-leafed clover. The creator is saddened that it was suggested that it looked like a butterfly, and mourns the less cynical days of their youth.

#Christmas has come to Level 6 of the IGB. Things are looking #festive.
Our Christmas decorations are now up. This is a lovely little Christmas tree in gold and silver, under the level 6 sign.
