Tags: , , ,
@11:30, Market place (Tori).

For the first time in history business students (a.k.a Kylteri) around Finland in Vaasa, Oulu, Tampere and Turku come together to challenge people to run for a good cause. KylteriRUN sets off on a noble quest to fight against youth alienation in Finland. Youth alienation is a subject that is constantly on display in media and is a subject that costs millions of euros for the society.

Running distance: 7 km.

Entree fee: 10 Eur (only in cash).

All the nationwide profits will be donated to the Finnish Central Association for Mental Health. Everybody is eligible to participate, the more the merrier. You can choose between fitness- or fun-series. Fun-series is ideal for student or workgroups who want to stand out by dressing in a certain way.

Sign up here.

@10:00-15:00, Bufetti’s lobby (Fabriikki) of the University of Vaasa (Wolffintie 34).

The event is for freshmen who want to know about different student organizations and associations, as well as student nations and acitivity groups at the University of Vaasa.

The subject associations introduce themselves on Wednesday. Student nations, activity clubs and other organizations introduce themselves on Thursday.

Find the list of the student associations and organizations here.

@15:00, Palosaari sports field (Palosaarentie).

As Finns didn’t succeed in London Olympic Games, now university students had to make up own sports in order to stand a chance. So there are introduced the Finnish national sports: Boot-throw, turbo-javelin, egg-and-spoon race and many more! You need both speed and accuracy and most of all beginners luck. For the few and the proud, there are also amazing prices to claim.

At the same time this is a good opportunity to get to know to the University different sport organizations.

So dress up in coolest-retro-sport outfit and come to have fun with all the other freshmen.

The event is alcohol-free.

@12:00-19:00, Hovioikeuden ranta (the intersection of Hovioikeudenpuistikko and Rantakatu).

The Initiation Rite of the University of Vaasa is an annual tradition where the new freshmen are ‘baptised’ as members of the student union.

After the magnificent kick-off show, the real initiation begins when students are divided into groups and go around different checkpoints in the Hovioikeudenranta area. It is recommended that you wear clothes according to the weather (it could be raining), since you will be spending the whole afternoon outside.
You will do yourself (and your group) a HUGE favour if you buy your drinks (alcoholic or non-alcoholic, BYOB!!! Bring Your Own Beer!!!) beforehand!

After the initiation race, it is time to drop by at home, change into your clubbing clothes and head over to Fontana, where the official after-party is held and where a very awesome band called STOCKERS! will be performing. Best teams of the race will be rewarded with amazing prices later in the evening at Fontana, so be there or be a square!
