Dear SSS alumni

When was the last time you visited NTU? Join us at SSS@NTU Homecoming to reignite and recount the school days. Visit iconic buildings such as The Hive and Gaia, which officially opened in June this year.

Besides the NTU Homecoming programme, here are what SSS has to welcome and connect with you. You are not obliged to attend every event. You can select and attend events of your choice: 

1. 2.00pm - 4.00pm | School of Social Sciences: SSS Alumni Homecoming Tea Reception and Showcase (For SSS Alumni, Faculty, Staff and Family of SSS Alumni only) at Gaia, Hangout 1/Social Terrace at level 2

The tea reception and showcase can be attended anytime between 2-4pm. Enjoy a selection of local delights whilst it lasts. You can also view a slideshow that showcases our past alumni events. It is a chance for reunion and meeting other alumni.

2. 3.00pm - 4.00pm | School of Social Sciences: Mental Wellness Workshop (For SSS Alumni, Faculty, Staff and Family of SSS Alumni only) at Gaia, Seminar Room 14 at level 3

Stay healthy by balancing our emotions with simple acupressure massage and simple recipes. Manage anger and anxiety. Stay happy. It is a hands-on session with acupressure massage and qigong exercises.

3. 4.15pm - 5.00pm (Registration to begin at 3.45pm)| School of Social Sciences: NTU Featured Faculty Series - Youth Culture, Esports and Digital Literacy: Talk by Associate Professor Patrick Williams, School of Social Sciences at LT3 at level 2

Abstract: The significance of competitive video gaming has shifted greatly over the last 40 years. Once seen as a risky form of leisure by parents and teachers, today many young people choose playing or watching others play competitive video games over more traditional media activities such as television or cinema. More importantly, competitive video gaming—now called E-sports—is increasingly recognised as a site for learning important 21st century skills. In this talk I will discuss how E-sports as a leisure activity fits alongside more formal school-based versions of digital literacy, and show what young players today are learning through their participation in E-sports activities.

Sign up today for #NTUsgAlumni Homecoming 2023 on Saturday, 14 October, from 2 pm to 9 pm at Gaia, NTU Singapore.

You are welcome to invite your family and friends for a delightful day out on campus and participate in workshops, campus tours, fireside chat with NTU President, carnival games and a networking dinner.
