1. File your missing association notices by Friday, the 29th of June, 12:00 noon
All associations within AYY must fill out a yearly association notice. Associations that have not yet filed an association notice for 2018 must do so before the 29th of June, 12:00 noon. It is no longer possible to apply for operating grants this year. If the association fails to fill an association notice in the allocated time for the second year in a row, the association can be removed from the Student Union’s list of associations.

Association notices are submitted through the TAHLO system, which can be found at http://tahlo.ayy.fi/. You can log in using your association’s username and password. If you have forgotten your username or password, you can recover it and have it sent to the association’s contact e-mail address at https://tahlo.ayy.fi/password_reset/.

Fill out the following Tahlo tabs carefully: General, Board, Facilities and Attachments. You can update the form up until it closes on the 29th of June at 12:00 noon, so you do not need to do everything at once. Remember to save your changes before exiting a tab!

When filling out the association notice, you will need:
*   Rules in effect
*   The annual report for 2017
*   The strategy for 2018
*   A list of the officers

Also remember to update your association profile on the AYY website. For more detailed instructions, see /en/blog/2018/02/28/submissions-for-association-notices-and-operating-grant-applications/. If you have any questions or problems, do not hesitate to contact the organizational sector (jarjestoasiat at ayy.fi)

 

2. What kind of spaces does your association need? Have an impact by taking the survey!
How satisfied are you with the facilities that AYY provides for associations? What new spaces and services would your association like to see? And what are your association’s hopes regarding the Student Center?

Take the survey for associations about AYY’s spaces by the 30th of June to get your voice heard! Answers to the survey will be used in the planning of the Student Center and other AYY’s upcoming facilities.

Take the survey here: https://lomake.ayy.fi/fi/space-survey-for-associations/

A free use of an AYY rentable space (excluding Servin mökki and Rantasauna) will be raffled among associations that have taken the survey. The prize is valid for the rest of the year.

 

3. Service office’s summer opening hours
AYY’s service office in Otaniemi will be open at exceptional hours during the summer:

– The office is closed on Midsummer Eve (Fri 22nd June) and between 9th July and 27th July (key distribution service for one-time rental facilities on Mondays between 14:00 and 17:00).

4. Afterwork at Smökki and the Smökki Cup beach volleyball tournament on the 3rd of July

The residents of Otaniemi have transitioned to a summer mode, each in their own way. Some withdrawal symptoms of the spring’s event-mania can be observed. Hard-working or hardly-working friends are nowhere to be found. What to do?

The answer is obvious: let’s go to the wellbeing committee’s SmökkiAfterwork on 3rd of July! Gather all your friends regardless of their summer plans and come enjoy the sunny weather, a few drinks and the great company on this Tuesday evening. Pub Smökki has it all: world cup football, authentic PubQuiz and a lot more! Refreshments and snacks are available for a small cash fee.

A volleyball tournament is also held alongside the afterwork by the AAVA’s sports committee, more info can be found here: https://www.facebook.com/events/394287647757015/

Summary:
What: Afterwork for the whole Otaniemi
When: On Tuesday 3.7. from 17 onwards
Where: Smökki, Jämeräntaival 4
Why: Because it’s summer and time for an afterwork in good company!

5. Share your ideas on AYY’s advocacy policies
The Aalto University Student Union is updating its policy papers this year. At the same time, the current policy papers will be combined into a single document. In what societal questions should Aalto people be especially active in?

By taking the survey, you can bring new issues and ideas to the policy paper preparation work: https://lomake.ayy.fi/vaikuttaminen/kerro-ideasi-ayyn-vaikuttamislinjoista/

The survey is open until July 31st. For more information, please contact AYY’s Advocacy and Communications Manager: heikki.isotalo (a) ayy.fi
