Nominations are now OPEN for Soton’s BNOC of the year 2019
Could it be you?
DaisyWe all know that one student who can’t even make it down to the Hartley cafe without hearing “hey, you alright” about 15 times. Everyone has them on Insta, everyone knows their name and everyone wants to be their mate. This type of student is called a “BNOC” and we’re looking for Soton’s biggest of 2019.
Maybe a fresher who’s gone down in Soton history because of a drunken chipped tooth? Maybe a third year who knows everyone and the DJ at every night out? Or maybe just that really fit guy who everyone knows about coz he’s just really fit? It’s time to nominate them!
Of course, we know some of you are self- confessed BNOC, so please don’t be afraid to nominate yourself.
If you think you or someone you know is a candidate for BNOC of the year 2019, nominate them, or yourself using the link below. We will publish the top nominations and let you decide by voting who will win this prestigious title.
