An Absentee-DM

On the 24th of August, An Absentee DM will be held in the Section Room in Nymble at 5:00 PM. During the DM, the board will, among other things, address the signing of contracts for D-Dagen and ratify several PC decisions.

At the request of D-Dagen, the name of the artist in the contract with United Stage has been crossed out in order to have a reveal later. If you still wish to find out who the artist is, you can contact the board.

The summons, agenda, decision protocol, and discussion protocol can be found here

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!

Extra recruitment for the management team for Studs 2024 is now open!

Hello chapter!

The recruitment for the management team of Studs 24 is almost complete, but we are still missing two roles, Head of IT and Head of Finance. Therefore, we are extending the recruitment process for a little longer to give everyone a chance to apply for this unique project.

But what is Studs then you might ask. Studs is a project where 30 master students get the chance to visit interesting companies in the IT industry. It will provide you the opportunity to connect with companies that you are really interested in and give you insight into what working with IT actually looks like. At the end of the project we all go on a study trip together, to a destination chosen by the whole group.

As a member of the management team, you will be in charge of one of the project's areas of responsibility, lead a team working towards that goal, and thus develop your leadership skills. Anyone studying a master's degree and a programme linked to the EECS school is welcome to apply! Just email pl24@studs.se if you have any questions!

Read more and apply in this form, the last day to apply is Sunday, July 16.

Best Regards Erik Hedlund & Erik Nordlöf Project managers Studs 2024

Kayaking with the Sports Club

Hello Everyone! 🌞🚣‍

Sign up at: https://dsekt.se/kayak 📝

Summer is around the corner, it's warm outside, and the water has almost reached acceptable temperatures. Do you know what that means? Kayak paddling, of course! On the 19th of June, the sports committee will arrange a day of kayak paddling out in Velamsund. All members that sign up are welcome. 🌊🛶

We will meet up at 9:00 at the bus station at Slussen. From there, we will commute together to Kihls gård, walk the rest of the way, and arrive at the kayaking clubhouse around 10:00.

Depending on how many sign up, we will split up into groups of ~20 people and paddle one group at a time. We will have one morning and one afternoon session. There will be activities on land when the others are out paddling, and if you want to go for a run or hike trails out there, you are welcome to do so! 🏃‍♀️🏞️

For lunch, we will offer hotdogs 🌭 and waffles 🧇. There will also be fika ☕ and fruit 🍓 to eat during the day.

Schedule (might be subjected to change or delays):

  • 9:00 AM - We meet at Slussen to commute to Velamsund.
  • 10:00ish - We arrive at Velamsund. If you need to change, you can do that now. We will serve some bread 🍞 and coffee ☕ now.
  • 10:30ish - The first group starts kayaking.
  • 10:30-12:30 One group is paddling. The other group will be doing whatever they feel like on land. We will bring frisbees 🥏, spikeball 🏐, brännboll ⚾, etc.
  • 12:30 - Lunch. Hotdogs + potato salad, and waffles are served.
  • 13:30-15:30 - The second group paddles.
  • 15:30-17:30 - Free time. It is possible to paddle more or just do some other activities on land.
  • 17:30-18:00 - Time to go home. If the weather is nice and people want to stay, we could probably stay longer. 🌅

Practicalities:

  • IMPORTANT! You need to be able to swim to join the paddling. 🏊‍♂️
  • Bring proper clothing 👕
    • Something to paddle in. 🚣‍♀️
    • A jacket to protect you from wind and rain could be nice when paddling. 🧥
    • Clothes for being active on land. 👟
    • Change of clothes for after you paddled. 👕
  • Towel, if you fall into the water or want to take a shower. 🛀
  • The Chapter is not paying for the trip to and from the location of paddling. 🚗💰 Enjoy the event and have a great time! 😊🌊🚣‍♂️ Visa mindre
