Kenn Mann says the following of the 1979-1982 era -
"As you know college societies go through their ups and downs, periodically undergoing a renaissance as a bunch of enthusiasts join. The 79-80 academic year was one such, hence Jonathan Flint's name going on the pot. Somewhere between the years 80 and 82 the society successfully invited various authors to give talks at the college. My dodgy memory vaguely remembers the late John Sladek being one of them."

1980-81

Films included Flesh Gordon, Rollerball, Quintet, Fahrenheit 451. Santa Claus Conquers the Martians  (!?), Hardware Wars, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
The society attended a lot of BSFA meetings, went to a number of conventions and obtained 60 more books for the library, bringing it to a total of 250 books.  See the Annual Report

Some comments from Steve Barnett (Chair 82/83) on this year:
"I was president in 1982/3 - in my first year as a postgrad. Previously, I had been one of a small group who, as undergrads, basically got the society up and running. This group included Jonathon Flint (president), Elise Mann (ne Perchersky) (founding editor of our fanzine "NME") Ken Mann (secretary I think), Denis Howe (projectionist and scape goat), Mark Jeffcock, Andrew Bradbrook (librarian), John Chamberlain, Neil Hampton ..."

Trips were organised to see American Werewolf [in London?], Heavy Metal, Shock Treatment and The Wild Women of Wonga (!?)
