Battle of The BNOCS – NOMINATIONS
Tell us who you think is the biggest name at UEA. Then we’ll a little vote to decide the winner. It’s on!
Edward ClaxtonAs you walk around campus the people you see can be split into three categories, the people you don’t recognise, the people you do recognise and the people EVERYONE recognises. The Big Names On Campus.
The Tab Norwich has set out to conduct an empirical investigation to find out who is the Biggest Name On Campus.
And who better to help The Tab team in our research than the students of UEA? We want you to nominate who you think are the Biggest Names On Campus.
Send all nominations to [email protected] or post them in the comment box below!
They could be a club night promoter, a member of the Union Council, a charitable soul, or just that guy who seems to always be around, you can nominate anyone for any reason!
What is a BNOC?
Obviously not everyone can be a BNOC, campus only has room for so many Big Names. Here are a few criteria your nominees may be judged against.
1. Friends with the World: You, your friends and everyone else would recognise or be familiar with the nominee for whatever reason, whether they are your facebook friend or someone you regularly interact with.
2. X Guy:The nominee’s name may not be known to everyone, but they are known by all in relation to their role within the university community. For example ‘you know the X guy? The guy who is always at Y with X! X Guy!’.
3. Why do I know that Name?! The nominee’s name is always thrown around in conversation in campus, but you don’t know anything about them or even what they look like. You and all your friends just know their name.
Now if while reading any of the above categories some names, or specific people popped into your head, send us their name/role/physical description along with why you think they are a BNOC!
Nominations will close Monday May 6, and the first round of Polling will begin shortly after.
