Queen's University CUPSI Team

09/27/2019

Hello everyone!

So we have some news.

1. We've decided to postpone our qualifying slams. We want to make sure as many people know about this opportunity and we need some more time to spread the word! So if you want to compete, hang in there!

2. There will still be a show tonight! It'll be a good ol' fashioned regular slam, and Monday we'll host a slam or an open mic depending on turnout!

3. We've been adopted by QPS!!! This means that we'll largely still operate the same way, but we'll be a team run through Queen's Poetry Slam.

As always, feel free to message us if you have any questions.
