Happy skiing holiday!
There may be a break in our studies this week, but there never is in events. Towards the end of this week, you can enjoy a three-course dinner in a post-apocalyptic atmosphere in the International Sitsit or participate in a Beer Pong tournament.
Next week, on the other hand, there will be a slightly more official program with the first Department Coffee Hour of the spring on Wednesday in the A-wing.
Along with all the events, remember to enjoy the outdoors and rest a little before the start of the next period!
