🐋 Hello chapter! 🐋

**On the 15th of april it is time for the Chapter fair! **

The fair will be ongoing between 12 and 15 (and afterwards there might be some activities with QN & DESC) with committee presentations around 12:30.

During the fair you will be able to learn more about the different committees of the chapter, as well as what the different volunteers do within the chapter. The fair will be held in the 𝛿-hallen, a meeting place that we’ve constructed in Gather.town, a web-based 2D pixel-art game where you can walk around and speak to others using proximity voice-chat and video 📷. (Video is optional!)

During the fair there will be a scavenger hunt for the brand new Chapter fair-patch where you can compete by gathering points.

There will also be a collection of games to try, and rumors has it that DESC and QN will arrange something fun during the event 🎮

The schedule for the day looks like the following: 12-15: The fair will be ongoing: here you can explore our Committees booths. 12.30: Committees present themselves. 15-??: The Committee booths close, but the fair will be open for more activities and some fun events.

Have a good time and see you at the fair!

Do you miss events? Do you want to celebrate that the exams are over? Then join QN and JML for a joint Movie Night on the 26th of March!

With the internationals Women's Day just last week and Ruth Bader Ginsburgs death last fall, there is probably no movie more relevant than On the Basis of Sex, which is about none other then RBG herself.

We watch the movie, discuss it, and then we have a cozy time together playing games (or something :))!

Sign up before the 24th of March for Fika!

To try and make the Study board a little more visible, we will start posting our lunch meetings here for anyone interested in joining us to discuss the various courses. Next meeting will be at 12:15pm on March 25, welcome!

Get an insight into life after graduation – learn from alumni through our mentor program

The aim of the mentor program is to give you as a student inspiration for your future career. Your mentor will be a former student, i.e. an alumnus/alumna of KTH, with experiences and personal knowledge of how life after graduation can be. He/she may have a different educational background. Mentoring is about asking questions, listening, reflecting and discovering new perspectives. As a mentee in the program, you are expected to meet up with your mentor four times, of which two meetings are together with the other participants. The mentors and mentees will plan the other two meetings on their own. Please contact alumni@kth.se should you have any questions.

Register before 14 March 2021.

Hi all Chapter Members!

Due to the new Pandemic law and restrictions, the following decisions have been made by KTH and THS.

• New opening hours for META is between 8-22.
• New maximum capacity for META is 26 persons.
• The furniture arrangement will be adapted to this as soon as possible, please do not rearrange.
• The premise is open for study purposes only, not for Chapter activities.

There is also some updated information regarding Nymble and THS from THS President Charley:

Events:

• We will continue having no events in Nymble or Osqvik.
• The previous rule about administrators for crucial democratic meetings being allowed to book rooms in Nymble is no longer in effect.

Public areas in Nymble:

• Nymble, the Bookstore and the Restaurant will still be open, but with new updated safety information posted around the building and even stricter restrictions in the number of seats and tables in their respective areas.
• Only 4 people per table is allowed, and we ask that people do not move any furniture. If you happen to be in Nymble we ask that we all help out to remind people of these restrictions when necessary. For example, if you see a table with too many people, ask them to move apart.
• KårX will continue to be physically open only Monday-Wednesday, but will still be reachable by phone: 08-790 98 51 and by mail: karx@ths.kth.se during their regular office hours.
• THS Café is closed and the Restaurant will instead be open 9-15 for the foreseeable future. Lunch will still be served as usual in the restaurant, with some extension of its supply in order to offer what THS Café usually does.
• We will regularly evaluate the situation and the above is subject to change.

What do we know right now about KTH?

• KTH library will open again on January 25th.
• Study places are kept open as usual.

Take care of yourself and those around you <3

On January the 22nd there will be a D-directorate meeting!

At the DM, the board will, among other things, review two already made per capsulam-decisions, close two projects, and inform of the dismissal of two officials.
