Activities

On the 13th till the 15th of October, the 286th GMM will be held with the goal to discharge the Board 2024-2025. There have been issues regarding the result of the last two financial years (from the 67th Board 2023-2024 and the 68th Board 2024-2025), but to allow a switch to take place normally and give the upcoming Board a clean-slate, we have created a proposal in regards to these finances.

A document was sent out and attached to this activity with the outlined proposal. There will be a discussion moment held in Colloquium 6 on Wednesday the 17th of September from 12:30-13:30 to discuss the proposal as written in the document. To be clear, this is strictly regarding the result of the financial years, not discuss the discharge of the Boards. 

If you cannot attend the meeting but have comments, inquiries or suggestions, please send an email to secretary@thor.edu. Hope to see you there!

During the summer the Overflow working group has been working on a plan to spend some of the money that was generated in Het Walhalla. During this information session we will go over the plan and explain our choices. But we also need your feedback to improve it and hear your opinions about what we have made. 

This year Thor will again organise the most amazing weekend of your study time! On the 19th, 20th, and 21st of September Thor will organise the first-year weekend full of fun activities. This is your chance to get to know all your fellow first-year students and the study association Thor! 

The weekend will start at our own local heaven, Het Walhalla, at 16:30 on Friday the 19th of September. That Friday you can drop off your baggage before 13:00 if you don't want to take it with you on the bike yourself. A packing list will follow later once you have subscribed.
 
You can enrol for this weekend by filling out your details below. If you have any questions regarding the weekend, please do not hesitate to contact the organisation at thew@thor.edu. This weekend will cost €35,00 euros. If you enrol, you are expected to show up for the weekend and pay the participation fee. If you end up not being able to come, you can send an email to thew@thor.edu before Tuesday the 16th of September at 12:00. If you unsubscribe before this deadline you don't have to pay the fee. You can pay with iDeal via the webform below, or in the Board room when the academic year has started. 

 

 Do you want to organize a super fun activity like a pub quiz, casino night, or the Open House Day? Are you a first-year interested in becoming active in Thor? Then you should come to the Ivaldi interest lunch! The Ivaldi committee is a first-year committee that organizes a wide variety of fun activities. It takes up very little time, so you can combine it with your studies  well. At the interest lunch you will learn more about the fun things you can do with this committee while you get free lunch! You can still show up even if you didn't subscribe. Subscribing helps us give an estimate of the amount of food we need to get. And subscribing to this lunch doesn't mean you are subscribed to Ivaldi :)
