Children in Need, Cancer Research, Every Click
and Transplant UK. The events include a five a
side football tournament and evening events at
city campus, along with much more fun!
Whilst we want students to enjoy
themselves at the events throughout the
month we are aiming to get as many
students as possible to donate blood at
the Molineux on November 5th. We also
want students to carry a donor card.
The shocking statistics reveal that
around 400 people die every year
waiting for donors. In an attempt to
resolve this the Liberal Democrats are
currently putting pressure on the
government to consider having an opt

ADVICE FROM ASC
1 CRY WOLF//NOVEMBER 2007
 to the years second

Welcome edition of Crywolf.

This edition is yet
again packed with news of great events past,
present and future. News on the Students’
Union, helpful advice from the Advice and
Support Centre and a few bits ‘just for fun.’
Since freshers week I’ve been inundated with
e-mails asking how to get involved in the
exciting student voice movement, a better
response than anyone could have hoped for!
This could mean that by the time the next
edition comes around there could be a new
editor (that’s me gone), new writers,
photographers, designers, new everything!
Despite the tremendous progress we’re
making-there’s always room for more. If
you’ve missed the meeting in the Polybar on
the 24th October then send me an e-mail or
better still, come ask in the Students’ Union!

pleasing! Anyways, onto the match, it started
well and then got sticky with Gray and

September! Probably not the easiest month of
work but by far the most satisfying. From the
hot, lazy summer months we now move on to
the reason why I ran for this position-Students!
Both new and old, from sixteen to sixty and
from every walk of life. Its wonderful to see
everyone at university making new friends, new
experiences and eager to learn.
I suppose we have to start with freshers week.
Certainly the most ambitious within living
memory of most of the staff. A huge amount of
effort went into this from not just sabbatical
officers but permanent staff as well so a
massive thanks to everyone.
So have I been doing??
I won’t bore you with the meetings, organising
and day-to-day tasks which are essential, but
probably not very interesting.
Hopefully you either saw me, spoke to me or at
least noticed my slightly embarrassing photo’s
on posters since you’ve been here. I’ve
managed to visit all five of the university
teaching sites (that’s Wolverhampton, Walsall,
Telford, Compton and Burton). Students on
each site showing why it is so important for the
SU to have a presence there to listen to
students views. On a similar subject you may
have noticed some red postcards with ‘FILL US
IN’ written on them. If you noticed these then
you may also have noticed some small red post
boxes marked, ‘suggestions.’ Please tell us
what you want us to do!! We want to make your
experience an enjoyable one and this is your
opportunity to tell ME directly what you want.
MAKE THE MOST OF IT!
RICHARD
Now that freshers’ is over with, it is going to be an
exciting year.
This year The Students’ Union has an
opportunity to do something very special…we
get to rate our Uni. The Students’ Union will be
writing a report on the quality of learning and
teaching at the University. Once the report is
written, the QAA (people who keep Universities
in check) will use it as evidence during their
audit of the University.
It may not sound exciting…but the results from
the institutional audit will affect students for the
next 5 years. I will be heading up the Students’
Union written submission to the QAA.
What else is happening I hear you ask…
Well, between now and Christmas I will be
training our student representatives and raising
awareness of Academic Misconduct.
Keep your eyes peeled for more info.

Hi everyone, I hope you are settling in well to
Wolverhampton and Uni life. Since I last wrote I
have been pretty busy.
Firstly I had the most terrifying experience as a
Vice President so far which was speaking at
graduation! I ended up really enjoying it and not
going wrong at all! I will miss all of my friends
who graduated and wish all 2007 graduates the
best of luck.
Freshers week was brilliant and I must say we
couldn’t have done it without the Bestmates. I
co-trained them just before freshers and got to
put my ‘Train the trainer’ course to good use. I
also “gave it a go” at Disco Dancing which was
brilliant! I must thank the Disco girls for their
participation. We must try it out in Fat Micks
one night!
I have also launched my “Have you locked up
today” campaign in halls of residence issuing
door hangers reminding students to lock up
Hi everyone!
I hope you all enjoyed Freshers’ Week as much
as we all did, lots of hard work but it was very
much worth it. Since Freshers’ Week I have been
busy encouraging students to stand for positions
in the Bye-Elections and I would like to take this
opportunity to congratulate and welcome all of
our new officers and School Reps, it’s going to
be an exciting year. I would also like to
congratulate all of the teams who took part in the
Varsity against the Birmingham College of Food
on their victory! Over the next month I will be
working on Operation Donation and encouraging
you all to get involved with donating to charity
and raising awareness of important causes
throughout the year. Any questions please feel

their doors and windows. This is going well and
I am working with the council and police to
make Wolves a safer place to be. I have also
presented the University with my targets for
change with accommodation for the year
ahead which was received really positively.
I have instigated our first ever Diversity
Committee, to which I had an overwhelming
response to. Hopefully we will have our first
meeting soon. This is all about extending the
student voice to welfare positions.
I am now working on “Operation Donation” to
bring a whole month of donor awareness and
also we will be hoping you students may dig
deep to your empty student pockets to donate
a little to our good causes.
See you all around I hope, remember you can
find me at City Campus in the Hole in the Wall
or the Advice and Support Centre.

Hi Again!
I hope you all enjoyed fresher’s week and are
settling in to university life okay, and if you’ve
been here a while are settling back into the
lecture routine. I know I have and that is why I
am sat typing this about 20 minutes before the
magazine deadline. So here is what I have been
doing to leave this blog to the last minute
possible.
I worked very hard during fresher’s week,
helping set up tables for the fayre and speaking
to so many of you in the Hole in the Wall,
followed by the even longer nights. Trevor Lock
was a personal highlight, I have never laughed
so much in my life at being insulted! As well as
helping people settle into halls, I also did a
number of induction talks, telling people all
about the Students’ Union and what we do. I
had fun, so hopefully everyone else did too.
I have worked with both Caroline and Kira on
the Operation Donation month, the results of
which shall be seen shortly. In particular I have
been working with the National Blood and
Organ Donation service, and hopefully (fingers
crossed!) shall have them in to talk to students
about donating blood (5th November, put it in
your diaries!) and signing up to the organ donor
list. See my article further on about why
everyone should give blood.
I have also worked with Caroline to get the
Diversity Committee established. Due to the
massive response, we decided to increase the
amount of reps per group from 2 to 3. We have
now selected the majority of our reps, and are
looking to hold the first meeting on November
2nd. I look forward to seeing as many of our
reps as possible there.
Keep working hard!

WEEK A time which some look forward to, some dread and
some don’t know what to expect. Whatever your take
on the first week back at University there was certainly
plenty to keep you busy both day and night. Our
freshers fair proved not only popular with students but
our guests, along with the Express and Star,
complimented us on such a successful event.
Combined with the popularity of Just Jack and
Wheatus on top of our regular nights made for a
fantastic weeks entertainment. Some would say the

“…Trip of a lifetime!”
Nie Hao!!!... Okay so it’s 2nd September and I
meet the group of 15 students from the
university all excited, packed and ready to go.
We get to Hong Kong and then to Shenzhen
Polytechnic University… we were obviously
expected by everyone, the welcome banners
and a special visit from the vice president of the
university definitely made us feel special and
very welcome!
So we had Chinese lessons from the most fun
lecturers of the university…surprisingly I learnt
quite a lot! Enough to keep me speaking
Chinese here too! The afternoons were packed
with culture trips and meeting Chinese
students. This was one of the best parts of the
trip, the students are sooooo friendly and easy
to get along with, so well that I’m in regular
contact with most of them now and planning
for some of them to come to England next year!
If anyone is a 'shopaholic' like myself….then
you would totally appreciate the huge
department stores, late night shops and
markets where I just wanted to buy
everything especially because it was all at
bargain prices!

VARSITY
Well if you haven’t heard by now, where
have you been hiding on campus?
10 teams compete and only 1 Uni can be
victorious, and in case you were
wondering - we were, us……………
WOLVES came out on top.
The day saw, for the first time, our new
students integrate themselves into their newly
chosen sports team and get the much-needed
practice in order to go into the BUSA fixtures
already motoring. The day also saw for the first
time the festivities a Varsity Day brings with it.
In the first round of matches WOLVES set their
stall out early by securing a win as the Men’s
Hockey ran away with a 6-1 victory
orchestrated by their talisman Andrew Cooper
who ran the show and bagged himself 2 goals.
Special mention should also go to Simba who
also netted and polished it off with some fine
acrobatics.
So with Wolves 1-0 up, focus was also upon
the Men’s Football 2nds who had to battle for
everything they got. The game was not
particularly on the pretty side, especially due to
some ferocious CAKES challenges. The lads
secured a hard earned 1-1 draw that continued
our lead against the chefs. The only goal
coming from a well-worked right sided
manoeuvre, Aton Gustave teed up Kevin
Singleton with a sublime cross to be smashed
home from 6 yards.
10 CRY WOLF//NOVEMBER 2007
DAY
We then headed inside for what was to become
the most controversial match of the day. A mix
up led to three of the Netball teams playing
instead of the original two, safe to say our girls
settled well amongst the chaos to accomplish a
well worked exercise that saw every
combination of each team working well and
looking good for the season. We won 90% of
the quarters played, but Cakes claimed the
victory as they beat what they thought was our
first team, in my view it was a distinct case of
cheating as they didn’t have much silverware
and nicked our Netball trophy. WELL DONE
GIRLS ON OUR WIN.
The Astroturf and its viewing public were
treated to yet again another hockey master
class. The Hockey Women’s team came up
against lacklustre opposition, however the
potential banana skin was avoided as Jobeth
Bastable led from the front. With three years of
experience under her belt she was not content
with just a hat trick but rained in 4 goals closely
followed by Gemma Boothby’s 3. All this goal
scoring rubbed off on the Freshers and saw
both Lucy Baker and Kate Stableforth open
their account with a goal a piece and a
whitewash of a 10-0 victory.
Meanwhile back to the pitches - the CAKES
were getting a sound beating by the Men’s
football 1st who ran amok and claimed yet
another victory as the game was dominated by
Daryl Williams who scores a brace of goals
including one outstanding scissor kick finish.
10 TEAMS COMPETE
ONLY 1 UNI CAN BE VICTORIOUS!
Adjacent to the Men, the Women’s football
team were also locked in battle and a tough
battle it was. The final whistle blew to sound
our first loss with the girls marginally missing
out 4-3. The match was a tight affair and it
could have gone either way as WOLVES hit the
bar in the final minute.
Back on court the Men’s basketball returned
order completing a resounding victory with a
final difference of over 30 points. Captain Eric
Potts registered top scorer with 35 points. The
team as a whole played well and should have
sent out the message to their next rivals that
WOLVES is not an easy place to visit.
The final match brought the day to a crescendo
at 17.15 at WRFC. The late kick-off witnessed a
vociferous crowd ever growing in numbers right
up until kick off. The rugby was a tense affair
with both teams eager to pounce upon the first
mistake, first blood to Wolves. Macdonald
Foroma intercepted a hopeful pass between the
CAKES centre partnership and ran in the try
from halfway. Adam Smith in the unfamiliar role
of place kicker converted and it was 7-0
WOLVES. As the game wore on it was evident
that neither defence was going to give away
points cheaply, not until the second half after a
prolonged period of pressure could CAKES find
away through the watertight defence. The
opposition No10 opted for the aerial route and
bombarded the newly initiated winger with the
highball that he could not collect and CAKES
pulled one back.
11 CRY WOLF//NOVEMBER 2007
In quick succession CAKES scored another try
and the solidity of the first half had escaped
WOLVES. Eventually the home side found their
stride once more and a well-worked lineout saw
a certain prop break the try line, back to level
pegging. CAKES went ahead once more with
another penalty and the final score was 20-17
to Cakes. WOLVES should have secured
another draw and would have albeit bad
decision making from an over eager flanker
when they should have kicked at goal.
The day was not spoilt however as the players
departed to the tune of ‘WE ARE TOP OF THE
LEAGUE………SAY WE ARE TOP OF THE
LEAGUE’ from the large crowd it was obvious
then that on and off the pitch the day had been
a success with WOLVES running away 8-2
overall winners.
Thank you to everyone who was involved and I
look forward to witnessing a day of enjoyment
on everyone’s behalf next year.

It was a chill, bleak evening; the vast, expansive
ocean of sky was cloudless, the bleached
outlines of twilight stars gazed down on their
kingdom like a family of tyrannical rulers,
indifferent to whether their subjects lived or
died, yet always intent upon controlling every
aspect of their pitiable, god forsaken existance.
A sudden rush of icy wind swooped from the
gargantuan chain of mountains encircling the
clearing and the shadows seemed to contort
and interwine as if with lives of their own,
forming themselves into a myriad of twisted
shapes and characters…
The limited dregs of colour that remained in the
evening sky sank and faded away to
nothingness and the moon rose discharging its
pale light over the clearing down to the
periphery of the stangnant swamp.
A shock of vivacious lightning lit up the the
heavens, throwing in sharp relief the image of a
solitary figure standing alone and motionless in
the middle of the clearing. Her eyes were wide
open, far reaching yet strangely vacant as if
rendered in some sort of a hypnotic trance. A
narrow, ivory ring of mist surrounded her giving
her some sort of an ethereal, unearthly
appearance.
The wind blew with escalating vigour, forcing
her golden hair to flutter madly around the
smooth, elegantly shaped face like a shining
halo adorning the most radiant and glorious of
heaven’s cherubim. Seductive, icy blue eyes
gleamed coldly in the murkiness of the moon
light, contributing to a bizarre, yet strangely
entrancing glitter effect playing about the soft
and lustrous skin of that celestial visage…
The phantasmal shadows of the night gathered,
enveloping her, carrying with it the eerie
whispers of darkness- strange, beautiful
nothings assuring her of an eternal, unyielding
love… an unearthly desire for her naked flesh
that would never desist.
Softly, she poured and returned her love to the
night… a love that was to be uncomprising and
perfect… as passionate and amorous as the fiery
caresses of the hellfire itself.
Sharp, cutting kisses were returned to her body
from unseen, sensuous mouths laying her softly
to sink in a river whose waters were of the purest
erotic pleasures and lascivious delights…
The wind grew stronger like a mighty tempest;
upon glacial, frosty wings it carried with it, not
snow, but big hailstones which fell and beat
upon the Earth with such fervour and ferocity
that even the mighty oak trees dotting the
edges of the clearing provided as much shelter
as stems of wheat.
But the darkness was infinite and absolute. It
would always be there; waiting, loving and
guarding her. Civilisations would come and go;
powerful emperors would rise and fall… only
the blackness of the night remains…ageless
and perfect… submitting only to its golden
queen in complete and unconditional
surrender… a perfect fantasy that even
centuries of frustration leading down the
twisted, blurred path of madness and insanity
could never quite dispel.
The shades took her softly, singing joyous
litanies of praise and rose upwards, towards the
wide open adamantine gates of ebony… closer
and closer to the majestic, horned lord of
nightfall that waited ever patiently for his regal
resplendant queen, his bride to be…
