During what many consider to be the most anticipated KPS meeting of the year, earlier this evening the final results for the 2017 Room Allocation Report (RAR) were released.
In addition to the RAR results, another important update was that for this year’s Freshers’ week the organisation’s tent is set to be located between Sir Temi Zammit Hall and the Library, as opposed to the parking area that has been commonly used in the past. The relocation of the organisations’ tent should serve to increase traffic towards the various organisations’ stands, therefore generating greater exposure.
In the light of the RAR results, The Third Eye has taken the liberty of briefly analysing the Room Allocation Results in relation to last year’s results.
It is to be noted that the original result list photograph taken during today’s KPS meeting and published on The Third Eye’s Facebook page contained an error since the organisation SIERA is in fact Senate recognised and therefore ranks at 27th place and not 31st place. ​
