On monday the 9:th of november the D-directorate will arrange a motion writing session.

What is a motion writing session?

It is a opportunity for you that want to write motions for Glögg-SM to discuss motion ideas with the board. The session can also be used to get feedback for a motion that you have written.

Should i write a motion?

Good question! If you have an idea of a change that you think will make the chapter that little bit nicer, then it could be that it is a motion that you want to write. Attend the motion writing session so we can discuss it!

The motion writing session will take place digitally via Zoom. A link to the meeting can be found here.

Ior, the chapter's systems engineering/admin group is recruiting officers to help administer the myriad of systems that we use every day. If you would be interested in that sort of thing, send me an email at d-sys@d.kth.se!

I realize that those of you who would read this post in English are probably all exchange students, and have not gotten a lot of info as to what Ior actually does. It's a committee/club that is dedicated to bulding, maintaining and migrating systems that the chapter relies on for various purposes, such as user login, bookkeeping, publishing news, holding elections etc. almost every day. This, like everything else in the chapter, is done pro bono, and the main goal is to have fun and learn together, because KTH does not really teach us much about how to actually build, deploy and maintain live systems.

The chapter "compensates" members by providing access to systems that cost money otherwise, such as an enterprise Github organization as well as a fully paid for AWS account that we can utilize and play around with.

The Google Form that is attached to this post is in Swedish, so I don't know how well that would work for you, so ignore that and just contact me directly in case you are interested in knowing more or taking part! My email is once again d-sys@d.kth.se.

Due to the new recommendations from FHM, D-Dagen has decided to not host the indoor lounges in Gröten and META. Instead we are going to focus on handing out goodiebags outdoors, outside KTH Entré and META. This way we can avoid gathering students, and students can easily keep a large distance from each other when they collect their goodiebag.

Tomorrow D-Dagen will stand outside of KTH Entré at 07.00-10.30 and hand out coffee and non-alcoholic mimosas. Come and have a chat with us, this is a perfect opportunity to ask us any questions you might have about the digital fair that take place next week on November 5. See you there!

Hi!

On Thursday November 5th META will be closed as it will be used by D-Dagen. If you want to heat food there are microwaves in other buildings such as Nymble, V or U

CANCELLED!! Due to new recommendations by FHM this event will no longer be taking place.

Dear Data and Media, it is finally here, the time has come for QN to invite everyone to a smashbros tournament! On november 3, the doors to META open up for the competition of the year begins. Bring a friend or play by yourself. There will be fika!

This Tuesday QN will be doing a regular boardgame night with halloween-feeling in META, 17.17. Tag monkeys will also be carving pumpkins in META at the same time!

Hello!

The admission for the Baking Club is open all year round, but I thought I should remind you of that.

We are the sweetest and most chill club of the chapter. If you are a part of the Baking Club there ar eno obligations or responsibilities, you are as big a part as you want to be and come whenever you can and want to.

You also don't need to be a baking expert to join, we'll learn together as we go. Also, anyone who helps out with the baking gets to have a taste when the baked goods are fresh from the oven.

Now when all the exams are over and Halloween is coming up, it is time for some Halloween-themed arts and crafts with Tag Monkeys!

Where: META

When: tuesday 27/10 at 17 ❤

This monday the study board participated in several meetings with representatives for the Computer Science program.

During the link meetings for years 1-3, in which those responsible for the period 3 courses also participated, the principal topic of discussion was how the courses had handled the transformation to digital education. If you're interested in the details, please contact the study board representatives for your grade.

Additionally a program counsel was also held where specific prerequisites for courses was the main discussion point:

• The program made it very clear that they now expect students to prioritise their unfinished courses over new courses. An example would be a student postponing their optional courses in year three to re-enroll in unfinished courses or prepare for re-exams.
• More students will have to take individual paths through the program, re-enroll for unfinished courses and postpone new courses
• It will be possible to register for courses with specific prerequisites despite not having the required prerequisites registered in LADOK as long as the re-exam for the missing courses hasn't been registered in LADOK before the start of the course.

We have asked that more information regarding this issue be uploaded on the course web.

Other points of discussion:

• They are aware that several students haven't gotten grades reported yet and hope to fix it soon
• The program might get new optional courses, one example mentioned was machine learning (this might potentially be a newly created course)
• What should be done in the case of a student of a course falling sick in Covid-19 shortly ahead of a physical exam
• Digital education: they have identified several positive aspects regarding online lectures
• The information regarding exams have been communicated late in several courses due to late decisions

Hello and Merry Christmas dear CS-students!

Check out this form in English to apply: https://forms.gle/PsLTUWGtAUWU4o4CA

This form will close the 18/10.

Hello everyone, hope your having a great day!

I just got a mail from Viggo Kann. He is getting a group together consisting of teachers, students and other KTH staff to discuss the future redesigning of the computer labs in the E and D buildings (imagine the Avengers, but cooler). They want at least one from the computer science chapter (but up to three people would be awesome).

Therefore, we are looking for some computer science students who want to be involved with planning the redesign of our beloved computer labs. No experience is required, they just want to bounce ideas off of the people who will be using the computer labs on a day to day basis (you guys!).

But is there going to be a lot of work? Nahhh, it's going to be super chill.

• Three one-hour meetings per term.
• The first meeting is now 14/10 15.15 over at Zoom. (You can join the group even though you can't join that date in particular).

If you are interested in helping Viggo and all future computer science students to fix the best computer labs ever, send an email to sso@d.kth.se.

This Tuesday we are charging our batteries for the coming exam period. Therefore we will be doing a completely normal board-game evening with nothing special, except for Fika. META on Tuesday at 17:17. Be there!

METAspexet 2020 opens its recruitment for certain groups. We are looking for you who want to help out to finish this year’s shows, set for the 28-29th of November. Are you interested to know more about how it is to work in a spex? Then this is the perfect opportunity to try it out! Since our shows are in less than two months, this will not be as a big of a commitment as a regular spex year. The main production is in Swedish, but if you are interested to join, please contact direqtionen@metaspexet.se and we will get in touch.

Experience the beautiful colours autumn have to offer by joing us on a walk through Hagaparken!🤩 This will give you the great opportunity to get to know the META International Group and perhaps also to take some photos and capture the best side of the season.🍂🍁 We'll meet at the Entrance of KTH at 17 and then travel together to the park by bus.🚌 (Hopefully we'll might also get some company of the Media chapter's Photogroup!)📸
