Newsletter

YOU will write the next newsletter!

Okay, this is how it's gonna work. This is a coup, against me. You can decide what the content of the next newsletter will be. I will write the agenda, committee changes and 'nice to knows'. You write the rest, through this form (it's anonymous). If no one fills the form, I'll be mildly disappointed, but I have faith in you all! I will include as many of the submissions as possible :)

Now onto the good stuff! Paddle Boating in 5 days!!!. This activity is specially organised for 1st year AI/CS students so you can find a new buddy and enjoy together the canals of Groningen!

Next up we got the Cover Career Day coming up on the 20th of May! I don't know why I'm mentioning it here, you should have signed up already. If you want to network and learn cool stuff about cool companies, this is your chance!

A committee is a group of friends that work towards a common goal. You can learn about all sorts of topics such as budgeting, planning, sponsoring, and much more! See the website for a complete overview of committees that are looking for members!

Nice to know
