A whole day and night of activities for the Freshers, where they get to know all the student organisations.
Our goal for this event is to highlight you and introduce the freshers to all the organisations. This is an opportunity for you to show the freshers who you are and gain new members. We want to help you shine and are here to guide you!
You can sign up for the Festival HERE! before the 30th of June at the latest!
Please note that you do not have to answer all questions immediately, you are only required to answer the ones marked 'required' to commit to the festival for now.(You can resubmit this survey at a later date, with more information, or change this answer at a later date, as long as this is before the 30th of June)
We have looked at all your feedback and here is the new and improved event-plan:

What is the motivation from ITU?
Our main goal is to arrange an inclusive event where all the Freshers can get to know the student organisations and experience the great social environment at ITU.
Students are happier and are more likely to make it through their studies in general if they experience a sense of belonging and have a social network from day one.
What kind of activities?
The different activities during the day are located around or at ITU. Each organisation have their own room/location where they can plan an activity.
You are encouraged to arrange activities that represent you as an organisation.
We will make a program and a navigational flyer so the Freshers are able to see when and where they can meet the different organisations. This is also why we need you to sign up and inform us of the activities you are planning.
An activity could e.g. be:
🎵 A concert or singalong together with Node
🥎 Spikeball together with ITU Active
🧶 A cozy room where you can knit together with KnitIT
You can be as creative as you’d like, ITU’s the limit!
What is the budget?
Each organisation has the possibility to get up to 2000kr for the activity you plan from the Study Start Budget.
We will send out a document by June 1st with guidelines on what you can spend the money on and how you can apply for it.
**Please don’t spend any money without having approval**
The organisations should use their own material to facilitate their own activities.
Do you need extra hands?
If you need help to facilitate your activity please inform us when you are signing up (in the form) with how many and what.
