1. CAMPUS EXPO ON 17-19 SEPT. SIGN UP NOW!
This year, Campus Expo will be organised in Töölö on Monday, 17 Sept and Tue, 18 Sept-Wed 19 Sept in Otaniemi. In Campus Expo, you can present your association activities to new students, sell overall badges and make new acquaintances. Your association may participate in one or more days.
Sign up by Mon, 10 Sept: https://lomake.ayy.fi/aava/kampuskarkelot/
On Monday, the first expo day will be organised in Töölö between 10am-2pm in the main building lobby of the School of Business. On Monday evening, you can also arrange association activities open to everyone at KY’s club facilities, which you can advertise at your expo stand.
Due to renovation, the expo in Otaniemi will be exceptionally organised in the lobby which surrounds Hall M. The facilities are a little smaller and more challenging, and stands will be closer to one another but we hope that you understand the situation. There are not enough tables and chairs for everyone so we encourage you to bring your own equipment for your stand.
On the first Otaniemi day, an evening event will also be organised. The idea is that you can invite new members to get to know your activities in sauna facilities which can be booked when you sign up. If possible, you can also arrange the event in your own club facilities. The idea is not to organise checkpoints but rather to organise events/activities that your association usually does, and which can be easily presented to those who are interested. Please mention possible event ideas in the registration form and we will annouce the division of facilities by 11 Sept. You can also mention if you organise the evening event in your own club room and we will add it to the schedule.

- Mon, 17 Sept, Campus Expo in Töölö
10am-2pm Lobby in the main building of the School of Business
~6pm-7pm onwards, evening events in the club rooms of KY Building

3. INVITATION: DIALOGI PROJECT’S KICK-OFF ON 12 SEPT FOR THE REPRESENTATIVES OF AALTO ASSOCIATIONS
Dear student association member,
Come and hear about Dialogue project which will be launched again this autumn! The aim of Dialogue project is to improve the working life by researching Aalto University students’ and companies’ views on work, work practices and the working life, and to promote interaction between the parties.
Communications Agency Ellun Kanat will organise Dialogue’s kick-off event on Wednesday,12 sept 2012, 4pm–5pm. The event will include an info session on what Dialogue is, why it is important for Aalto’s students and how the associations could participate in Dialogue. Wine and snacks will be provided!
Please register by 10 Sept 2012 to dialogi@ellunkanat.fi. Please also mention the association which you represent. It would be great if an enthusiastic representative from each association attended the event! You are cordially welcome, Dialogue team
What is Dialogue?
Dialogue’s mission is to achieve a better working life. Dialogue is the first industrial action in the world history, where employees and employers work for the better working life on the same side and around the same table. Dialogue project of 2012 delves into mobile work. The question is: Do students want to have effect on the working life to which they will graduate? Dialogue wants to give voice to the future employees, the students. Concrete interaction takes place in the joint workshops of companies and students.

5. WELCOME TO THE SCOUTS – PRESENTATION OF SCOUNTING ACTIVITIES ON 25 SEPT
You can join the scouts at any age, and you should, as scouting is rewarding volunteer work. It includes adventures and experiences, which increase your confidence in your own skills. In scouting, you learn organisational skills, cooperation skills and management, and you can try out new ideas in a safe environment. There are 38 million scouts in the world, in almost all countries of the world. Scouting includes nonpolitical activities open to everyone, which take place in local groups.
Scouting in the metropolitan area is getting more popular and adult volunteers are needed. Come and learn about scouting! We present scouting activities and provide refreshments at Partioasema (Töölönkatu 55) on 25 Sept, 6pm-8pm. Invite your friend to come with you! You can find more information at www.pääkaupunkiseudunpartiolaiset.fi. You can also call Anna at the office: 09 88651216 or send e-mail to anna.kolehmainen@partio.fi.
The event is available on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/events/337475083011564/
