The Typewriter Tour

The Typewriter Tour is the Society’s welcome to new students: sit at the typewriter, write six words, and join. It belongs to membership, run by the Director of Membership and the Tour Lead.

Join the Society

When

Once a year, in the spring club fair week, with the fair as one of its days. The 2027 dates follow Student Life’s fair and are posted on What’s on.

How it works

No paper is kept. At the station you join on auibsal.org from the QR code, a volunteer photographs your typed page and attaches it to your new account, and you take the original home. Writers under 18 don’t join: they keep their page and nothing is photographed.

Who sees your page

Six Words are written only on the typewriter, never on the site. Your page is private until you choose otherwise in your account: only you, your profile, or this page too. That choice is your consent, and you can change it any time.

The Six Words wall

  • Awareness is a blessing I didn’t ask for.

    Ali Mahdi

  • Quiet girl, loud dream, almost there.

    Jannah Alhussieny

  • Rewrote the story I was given.

    Karrar Alwaili

  • I just saw my reflection blink.

    Areej Al-Rikabi

Try the typewriter

Nothing you type here is kept. Your six words for the wall are written on the Tour, on a card.
