When you arrive in York you will be put into a little \u201cfamily\u201d. Your family will have some first years and 2 students from the older years who have volunteered to be your \u201cparents\u201d!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Freshers&#8217; Week <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the second week of first term, we run a course \u2018Fresher\u2019s Week\u2019. This includes both drinking and non-drinking social events (some in your families, some not). The final event of the week is a formal black tie meal at the Hilton, followed by a night out. The whole week is a fun way to get to know people studying PPE \u2013 some of which are my now closest friends who I met during my PEP Fresher\u2019s Week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our other events<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">January Trip Abroad <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Every year the club organises a trip abroad with around 30 tickets up for grabs. Previous destinations have been Barcelona and Athens \u2013 this year we are looking to go to Dublin. The trip is a great time away after the Winter exam season and tickets always sell out quickly. To make the trip \u2018educational\u2019 there are always speakers&#8217; events, tours, museums as well as group meals and nights out. There really is always something for everyone to enjoy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12-Hour Ball<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Renowned across campus our biggest event of the year is the 12-hour ball. It&#8217;s always towards the end of the Spring Term and is open to all year groups \u2013 and their friends! We begin the night (usually at the Hilton) for a sit-down black-tie meal. Then we parade across a range of venues and clubs in town before returning to the Hilton for a greasy breakfast. Even though I didn\u2019t make it to breakfast in my first year, I am determined to this year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1280\" height=\"851\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.york.ac.uk\/student-voices\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2021\/12\/screenshot-2021-12-03-at-15-56-57.jpg?resize=1280%2C851\" alt=\"A photo in-front of dark, closed curtains of 10 PPE students laughing at the Freshers Ball in 2021.

In the past we have had Q+A\u2019s with Rachel Maskell (York Centrals&#8217; MP) and Tim Harford (\u201cThe Undercover Economist\u201d). We open up these events to straight Politics, Economics and Philosophy students and we are often invited to their individual speakers\u2019 events too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Joint socials<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Summer term we hold a BBQ or garden party with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/econsocyork\/\">EconSoc<\/a>. In the past we have even run a Phil Vs. PPE quiz with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/uoyphilsoc\/\">PhilSoc<\/a>. We are always looking to run socials with the three other societies. We share lots of modules with their students and it&#8217;s good to get to know them socially, as well as academically. Plus, as these three societies are run through our Students&#8217; Union (YUSU), you can join any of them as a member if you would like to. A lot of PPE students are active members of PolSoc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to find out more there are photos from our events on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/clubofpep\/?hl=en\">Instagram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/clubofpep\/\">Facebook<\/a>, as well as our University <a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/ppe\/about\/club-of-pep\/\">webpage<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">My module highlights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/students\/studying\/manage\/programmes\/module-catalogue\/module\/POL00008C\/2021-22\">\u2018What is politics?\u2019<\/a> was my favourite module in first year. It taught me to see Politics in a whole new light, by exploring the difference between \u201cpolitics\u201d and \u201cPolitics\u201d. I have since focused my degree on the more theoretical side of Politics, as opposed to simply looking at how different political systems work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In second year the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/students\/studying\/manage\/programmes\/module-catalogue\/module\/POL00053I\/2021-22\">\u2018Politics of Gender\u2019<\/a> was an eye-opener. We explored issues (some controversial) and theories that I had never considered before. These included the politics of pornography, prostitution and performativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my final year, I am studying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.york.ac.uk\/students\/studying\/manage\/programmes\/module-catalogue\/module\/ECO00006H\/2021-22\">\u2018Health Economics\u2019<\/a>. I am particularly enjoying applying the different models and methods that I\u2019d learnt in first and second year microeconomics modules to a highly specific industry and adapting them to a unique market type. I am now looking into future careers and further study in this area after finding this module so interesting and engaging.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ap-custom-wrapper\"><\/div><!--ap-custom-wrapper-->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I\u2019m Molly and I am a final year student studying Politics and Economics at York! I want to tell you about why being a part of the School of PPE is an amazing experience and some other things about what it\u2019s like to study one of the PPE programmes here. I love the variation in teaching that studying a joint-honours allows me to experience across the disciplines, whenever I get too bogged down in essay writing I can take a break and hop over to something more problem-solving based while still being productive in my study time. Your university experience is not just 3 years of pure study and the social opportunities at York make it unique. My blog will cover things about the Club of PEP, and some of the course content that I have particularly enjoyed over my 3 years so
