The Atheist Society was formed at the end of the academic year 2006/7 by a group of students under Jens Enzo Nyby Christensen who got together over the University forums. Jens was President for 2 years and was succeeded in 2009 by Jim Coppin.
The Current Committee is Anni Lehikoinen (VP), Naomi Hyland (Secretary, Ray Thomas (Treasurer), Joss Clifford-Frith (Events Manager) and Diego Morganti (Librarian).
The Society held its first Reason Week in November 2008 and will hold another in November 2009.
The formation of an interfaith committee is a current aim, the Atheist Society has held religious representative on the Student Departmental Committee for 2 years now.
Upcoming events include standup comedy, a new weekly event and more pub crawls, movie marathons and debates.
The continuation of the "religion crawl" is another priority.
