Rag & Flag 2019

NUS Law freshmen raised over $19,000 for their beneficiary, Lion Befrienders at this year’s NUS Students’ Union (NUSSU) Rag & Flag held on 10 August 2019. The freshmen put up an entertaining and colourful performance, earning them a Bronze Award.

The success of Rag & Flag was attributed to our freshmen’s commitment and dedication to the project. Working hard together over two months has helped us establish camaraderie amongst the freshmen. Many of us made friendships that will last for a lifetime. Moreover, I was encouraged that the freshmen had a heart for the community.

On Flag Day, freshmen raise funds for social service organisations and subsequently on Rag Day, they put up dance performances to thank the public for their donations. This year’s Rag & Flag was held at Bishan Park Ficus Green where members of the public were treated to a spectacle of performances from the various NUS faculties.

It was heartening to see our freshmen participating in all the activities enthusiastically. Despite facing many challenges and having to stay late into the night to realise this project, we were able to overcome these obstacles because of our indefatigable spirit.
Overall, the experience has been a meaningful and fulfilling one which will be etched in our memories for a long time to come. Well done, NUS Law!
