Bus booked for Simon Singh lecture on science and the media
A minibus capable of seating ten students will depart from the Gillingham Building at 16.30 to take students from the Centre to hear Dr Simon Singh, the award winning broadcaster and writer, explore the way in which journalists report science on Wednesday 14 March at 6pm. The open lecture[1], titled Science and the Media – the Good, the Bad and the Ugly, will take place at Woolf College Lecture Theatre on the Canterbury Campus[2]. Dr. Singh will argue that as science impacts on society more than ever before, it is crucial that media reporting is accurate, insightful and informative, rather than distorted, scaremongering and sensationalist.
The bus will return from Canterbury to Medway at 19.30. Students are welcome to use it to travel in one direction or both. First come, first served. The first three names below have got seats…there is room for seven more.
