THS: Prolonged corona restrictions
The following message is from the THS President.
Hi everyone! In response to the prolonged local restrictions in the Stockholm area, we will prolong THS restrictions accordingly. All of the following applies until December 13th. After that, we will reevaluate and send an update. Events:
-
We will continue having no events in Nymble or Osqvik until at least December 13th. Nymble:
-
Nymble, the Bookstore, THS Café and the Restaurant will still be open, but with new updated safety information posted around the building, and possibly even further restrictions than the past three weeks in the number of seats and tables in their respective areas. This because we still want to provide, for the students who really need it, a space to study.
-
Administrators for crucial democratic meetings, may still make use of premises in Nymble, but only the administrators. The meeting itself will still be needed to be completely on Zoom. You must contact ordf@ths.kth.se and ask permission if you wish to do this.
-
KårX will continue to be physically open 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. What will KTH do? The library will keep on being open just as it has been the last couple of weeks, but we don’t have any more information to give you right now on the subject. A formal decision will be made during next week, and we will keep you posted about that as soon as we receive more information.

Extended Elections
Since some posts do not have as many candidates as our regulatory documents prescribes, an extended election period has been opened for these posts.
The posts in question are: International Student Coordinator, Light and sound responsible, Secretary, Auditor as well as Election Committee Member.
The nomination for these posts closes on the 19th of november, and nominations can be accepted until the 25th of november.
Note that due to a technical error in the election system, it was not possible to open an extended election period for Election Committee Member. Instead, the role has been added under the rubric "Fyllnadval" (by-election) since this gives it the same dates as it would have had otherwise. Take note that this means that Election Committee Member is open as a normal election, even though the section it is open under would indicate otherwise.
Mentorship in mathematics
Do you want to develop yourself, sharpen your CV and make a difference? Become a mentor in mathematics!
The mentorship for particularly gifted children is aimed at primary school students who do not feel challenged by the existing maths teaching. This can often lead to mathematics not being perceived as rewarding, and can cause dissatisfaction or mental problems for the children. As a mentor, you meet a group of 2-4 elementary school students, one hour a week via Zoom. Time and content for the meetings are decided by you and the children together. Here you can see a short film where former mentors and trainees tell about their experience. It is not a requirement that you as a mentor yourself are particularly talented, the most important thing is that you have a strong commitment and interest in mathematics.

Information meeting (Facebook event) Welcome to a meeting where we tell you more about what it means to be a mentor.

dÅre 2021 is cancelled
Hello everyone. After a lot of planning and reconsideration, dÅrestaben has unfortunately come to the conclusion that we can not arrange dÅre with a clean conscience, since we feel we can not guarantee a safe event for everyone involved.
There are no other big events that the chapter is arranging right now, and that is for a good reason. It simply doesn't feel right to travel with 96 students up to Åre, where we travel and live together, while FHM is recommending us to not meet anyone outside our home.
We hope that you can understanding where we are coming from, while at the same time we recongnize that this is a dissapointment for many. We apologize to those who had cleared their scheduly for January. If you have any questions whatsoever about our decision, don't hesitate to contact dÅrestaben!
Take care, and stay tuned for dÅre 2022. ❤️
