Autumn is here! New and exciting things are happening in Helsinki!

Wednesday, August 31st, 2011

Leaves are slowly starting to fall and it is time to get back to campus. The debating society will also have an exciting autumn ahead.

On Monday 5th of September we will be representing ourselves at the university’s opening carnival at Porthania (Yliopistonkatu 3). We will be there from 2 o’clock until 6 o’clock. The rumor has it that some of us might even show our faces at HYY’s party the same evening.

Quite soon we will also organise a show debate for the new and the old students who are interested in debating but don’t really know what it’s all about. We’ll post information about this soon!

Another interesting idea for this fall came from Oulu. We got an email from their debating society suggesting that we should host a debating tournament in Finland. We think that this is a fantastic idea and we’ll post more when we know more!

Keep following our website and please come and talk to us at the opening carnival!
