DUSA Graduation Ball 2001 Breaks All Records

Graduation Ball 2001 staged by Dundee University Students' Association (DUSA) was held last Saturday evening on the campus of Dundee University.

Months in the planning, requiring over 150 staff, and taking 3 days to set up, Graduation Ball 2001 broke all records and was the biggest and most successful event ever held by DUSA.

Revellers enjoyed a Champagne reception, marquee bar, funfair, barbecue, Abba and Stereophonics tribute bands as well as a jazz band, string quartet and Champagne breakfast.

Vice President Daniel Hartley stated "there were over 700 graduates still partying just before 6am, on what was the most successful Graduation Ball ever." DUSA would like to thank Dundee City Council, Tayside Fire Brigade and Dundee University for their generous co-operation that made this event possible.
