Treasure hunt

Posted by on Feb 17, 2012 in All, Campus/Faculty, Facilities | Comments Off

With the start of the new semester “fresh blood” arrived at Zernike in the form of 90 international exchange students. To make their first day unforgettable the International Activity Workgroup had prepared an exciting challenge for them- a Treasure hunt!

The brave adventurers were divided into groups and were let to explore The World of Zernike in the search of ten check points. As if that task on its own was not hard enough, they had to go even further and prove their knowledge by answering tricky questions on each check point.  Every right answer was a step closer to one of the “treasures” prepared for the three best teams.

At the end of the day winners or losers didn’t matter so much because everyone was enjoying the delicious dinner at the warm and cozy restaurant, organized by the Exchange office.  Many were chatting with the new friends made during the day and there was not even one new exchange student who didn’t know Zernike like the back of his hand.

Some say: “Finally”, others are rather disappointed that the summer is now definitely and officially over. This event brought the first snow to Groningen. Suddenly, everything was white when waking up on a Friday morning. Having talked to various people, the opinions about the first snow differ widely. Some students (especially international students) who haven’t seen snow in their life were really excited and you could see happy faces all over the place.

4 times a year FEB “proudly” presents a great race for students: a race for finding a place to study for the exam period. Studying at home is always an option, but University of Groningen offers a large number of places to study, not to mention that sometimes you do want to see human faces as well, not only your books and articles. To help you find a place to study easier, we spotted some nice study places, made a video and present them here for you to make a choice. Good luck studying!
