2 weeks left until dJubileet
Oh, how quickly time flies. Now there are only 2 weeks left until dJubileet kicks off!
Speaking of time, we will once again answer the traditional question, "Was it better in the past?" with a Lunch Lecture: Was it better in the past? and a Section History Lecture.
At the Lunch Lecture: Was it better in the past?, we will invite two of our honorary members, namely the former program manager Stefan Arnborg and the former head of the education office Inger Larsson, to tell both funny and disturbing stories from the long history of the Computer Science program.
The Lunch Lecture: Was it better in the past? will take place on September 26th at 12:00, and (of course) lunch will be provided! Anyone who wishes to attend will need to fill out the form that can be found in our Facebook event, the form opens at 13:37 on September 13th.
In the Section History Lecture, our dear Section Historian Isak Lefévre will talk about all the events in the Section's history that are more amusing than the ones he doesn't talk about.
The Section History Lecture will take place on September 29th at 17:00 in connection with our singing evening. Food will be provided here as well! If you want food (and a prioritized spot), please fill out the form that can be found in our Facebook event, the form opens at 13:37 on September 13th.
Hope to see you there!
Welcome (back) to META!
Hello dear Computer Science and Media! First and foremost, a warm welcome to all new students! We hope you're enjoying your time here so far, and a hearty welcome back to the rest of you! Computer Science and Media are fortunate enough to have a chapter hall in their possession called META. META is our beautiful space that always takes care of us, soo... it means we must show some love in return! META hasn't always been left in an okay condition over the past week. If you happen to be the last one in META and decide to leave, you MUST ensure that ALL windows (please check the meeting room windows too) and doors are closed! Furthermore, the lights should be turned off, as the META ghosts prefer dark mode. 😎
Tl;dr: When you leave META, make sure doors and windows are closed and the lights are off!
In addition to these more serious matters above, here's some good-to-know information:
-
Your parents won't come to META to do the dishes, so make sure you handwash everything you use.
-
The door to META is a bit heavy, and the handle is easily damaged, so it's always best to use the automatic door opener; it saves the METAdors a lot of work!
-
META sometimes (quite often) has poor air quality, which improves if you force the ventilation. This is done through a timer button located to the left of the cabinets in the kitchenette (in the corner farthest into the kitchenette).

New email routines for the board
Good evening!
As of 1 August, all emails sent to individual board members (e.g. dnok@datasektionen.se, ordf@datasektionen.se, etc.) will automatically be forwarded to the entire board.
The purpose of this change is to reduce the risk of cases falling through the cracks, as well as to to facilitate our internal work.
For matters intended only for a particular board member, it is suggested that this be sent to kthid@datasektionen.se, where the kthid is the ID of the intended recipient. Alternatively, other media may be used, such as Slack.
If you have any questions, contact drek@datasektionen.se
Take care!
