1. AYY’s Association Regulation addressed by the Representative Council on 17 Sept
AYY’s association regulation will be addressed in the next Representative Council meeting on 17 Sept. The meeting will open a section which defines the obligations of associations in the first list. The meeting will particularly address the context which defines how association funds should be used when the association is dismissed or discontinued. Due to the process, the specialist’s advice on rule amendments may be delayed until the association regulation is updated.
2. Sign up your association for Campus Expo by 15 Sept!
AYY’s Campus Expo is an expo event for all Aalto students organised by Community Committee Aava. Campus Expo will be held on Tue, 22 September in OK1 main building (Otakaari 1, Otaniemi). Stands are open from10am-2pm and from 4pm onwards special status association facility / guild room tour, and AYY can give a free facility to some associations to arrange an open event in the evening. All special status associations, committees, clubs and other associations are welcome to participate in the event. This is a great opportunity to introduce your association to new students! Sign up at http://lomake.ayy.fi/aava/kampuskarkelot-22-9-2015/. Registration will end on 15 Sept. Welcome to the expo!
3. Your association to join Otatarha race?
The traditional Otatarha race, a festival-like car racing event, is here again on 30 September. Would your association like to be a part of this event by hosting your own checkpoint? We would like the event to be even more audience-friendly this year, offering the audience more activities besides the actual car/vehicle-racing. We warmly welcome association checkpoints that somehow activate people and offer them something to do. The checkpoint can be a “team checkpoint”, where a group of people is doing something together, or a single-person activity. What is most important is that the checkpoint is fun.
If you have an idea (you don’t have to have all the details specified or decided yet) and you would like to participate in the best Otatarha race event this year, please send an email to sirius.vuorikoski@ayy.fi. If you are interested, please let us know no later than two weeks before the event, i.e. at the latest on 16 September, so that we still have time to figure out what to do and go through the details if there’s need for that.
4. Reminder: Otaniemi Service Point closed at 11am-12noon starting on 7 Sept 2015
Otaniemi Service Point will be closed during the lunch hour at 11am-12noon starting on 7 Sept. Otherwise, the service office is open as usual.
