Hello dear chapter!

The study board will once again be holding a complaint lodge in META today! We apologize for the late notice but hope you can forgive us for this!

As compensation, we, as usual, offer goodies in exchange for feedback on this period's or semester's courses, so don't hesitate to come forward and share your thoughts!

Hope to see you in META and good luck with your studies!

Hello hello!

Every Saturday from 2 pm to 3 pm we have booked KTH Hallen for the rest of the semester. The idea is that we do some activity/sport for an hour. Everyone is welcome! The primary goal is having fun, not to play super competitively.

This week (Saturday 16th) we will play stress (a type of basketball game🏀) for 1 hour.

This isn't to bribe you to come but there will be some Christmas-themed fika this time 🍪🎅

I will try to vary the sports in the following weeks. And please come with suggestions for what we can do!!!

All events are published in our sports group on Facebook.

Hope to see you there 🙂

Happy 2nd advent, chapter! Are you itching to do Christmas crafting? Is the exam studying piling up? Do you want more cozy Christmas in your school week? Did you miss out on building gingerbread houses at the previous two events - or can you just not get enough? The Baking Comittee and Tag Monkeys welcome you in from the cold and snow to the warmth of Meta this friday, the 15th of December, from 17.15 for Christmas crafts and gingerbread baking! There'll be all kinds of crafts and decorations, cozy vibes and hot chocolate! No signup required, just Christmas vibes, Welcome! //Baked and DAD

Hello chapter! Here is a small PSA.

Unfortunately, there have been multiple instances of theft on campus during the semester. Therefore, we would like to ask you to keep an eye on your belongings at all times. That also applies in locked areas such as computer halls and restrooms. Also, make sure to not let unauthorized people in to the buildings.

If you, for any reason, feel unsafe, or if you want support from KTH security staff, feel free to call their number 08-790 7700 at any point during the day or night. The phone number also works if you would like to report a theft or if there are unauthorized people on campus.

You can also always contact the chapters SMA, Axel at sma@datasektionen.se or JNO, Jennifer, at jno@datasektionen.se.

Good luck with the last few weeks of the semester. May the odds be ever in your favor on your last exams/labs/assignments.

Amanda, D-SOL

Welcome to a lunch lecture about working with diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace!

An introduction and case study together with Gunnar Risting from Purple Pill, a project developed by Gunnar, John Leijonmarck, and their colleagues, with the purpose of encouraging more men in the workplace to actively work with questions and issues regarding gender.

With its name being a reference to the Matrix metaphor of having the courage to see the truth and taking a stand, the Purple Pill initiative aims to include everyone in the fight against gender inequality.

This event is a collaboration between the Computer Science and Engineering Physics Chapters! Organized by Physics' Equality Committee JämN and Computer Science groups Jämlikhetsnämnden (Equality Committe) and Näringslivsgruppen (Business Relations Group)!

See you there!

This time a year the former students will show current students how it used to go down, aka they will show how to party, old school. 😎😎

There will be great food, great hang and the occasional classic so even if you are not an OG, you're all welcome!

Monday 11th of December 17:30 will be a pub 🍻 and gingerbread house building competition in both META and Tolvan???! 🙀 😵‍💫 🫣.

This is a chance to visit an unfamiliar chapter hall and meet Electro ⚡ MedTek 🩻 Media 🎥 and Data 🤓 students!

The gingerbread house building competition (17:30-18:30) requires cooperation, creativity, and speed and includes relay-race-like elements (why??- ✋Trust us). Everyone who enters the contest gets a free custom ✨ extremely swag 😎 one of a kind 💎 premium patch. Register in dsekt.se/mt23 to get a team (limited places!)

For those who can't make it to the competition, fear not. The pub 🍻 🪩 in META (and maybe Tolvan) is open from 17:30. There you will also be able to buy 💵 patches left over from the competition. You get into the pub for the chapter you do not belong to through our (patent pending) 🧑‍🤝‍🧑 drinking-buddy-system™.

Further details will come closer to the event 👍 👍 👍

Hey chapter! This year's Skiftes will be a lunch sitting on the 17th of December and the ticket release will be this friday (1st of December) 18:00.

For those unfamiliar with Skiftes it is a sitting meant to symbolize the transition from the current officals to those who were recently elected to posts for the coming calender year. Everyone are welcome to partake in Skiftes but due to the above explanation current and becoming officials have priority for tickets to Skiftes.

During week 49, a blank 128x128 canvas will be open, and anyone can build their masterpiece with a cooldown between each block. Bring all your friends and work together to create and defend your place in this historical moment! Everyone from the Data and Media chapters are welcome to participate at any time during the week, no matter if you are active in the student body or not.

After the week has elapsed, we will be printing out the final result and hang it up in META. It will also be available as a map item in the main server once it opens!

Server IP: event.mc.datasektionen.se (Java 1.20.2) The event begins on December 4th at 5 PM, and ends on December 11th at 5 PM.

Join the Discord server here: https://dsekt.se/metacraft

We'll see you in META (in Minecraft)!

Welcome to Datas Danskväll (DDK)! On Monday the 27th of October we will continue with the dance evenings and we will focus on Bugg. The goal is for us data scientists to gracefully glide across the dance floor at balls. This will be the last opportunity to practice before the dJubileet, so join us!

On future occasions, we will also have the opportunity to learn salsa, chacha, rumba, foxtrot, jive, lindy hop, tango, slow foxtrot, and quickstep.

(𝐎𝐁𝐒: We couldn't book a room so Joakim will occupy one in the Q-building)

Join us on Monday with or without a partner! Hope to see you then.
