Meetings and gatherings
Attila's Sixth Floor
Previously home to the University Library and the Faculty of Social Sciences, Attila now mainly houses public offices. The sixth floor contains a total of three rooms that can be used for rehearsals, training sessions and meetings. The rooms are available for student associations and hobby associations between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. on weekdays.
To check the availability of the room, go to the booking calendar. Associations who use the Attila rooms regularly have permanent user accounts for the calendar. In fact, Attila has regular reservations on most nights, but Thursday nights and time slots before 5 p.m. are free. For more information about booking or using the rooms, please contact the Student Union's Secretary for Organizational Affairs.
If you find a suitable time for your association and would like to reserve it, act as follows:
-
Email or call the Secretary for Organizational Affairs or the General Office. Let them know who is in charge of the reservation and give them the contact information of that person (email address and telephone number).

The person in charge should also notify the secretary when s/he can pick up and drop off the room keys from the info desk in Attila.

The Secretary for Organizational Affairs or the Office Secretary at the General Office will book the room for you and give the details about the person in charge to the info desk in Attila, where they will have a key waiting for you.

Tamy's Student Association Room
(The Pinni A building, 4th floor)

The room consists of a lounge with a kitchenette, a meeting room, a locked store room and an office space. The kitchenette has a dishwasher, a coffee maker, a microwave oven and assorted crockery. The lounge has couches, shelves, noticeboards and chairs. Small gatherings and meetings can be held around coffee tables. In addition, the room has a computer (with an internet connection, of course).
The lounge in the Student Association Room doesn't have to be reserved (in fact, it cannot be reserved), but there is a smallish meeting room that is suited for the meetings of the executive committees of student associations. It is equipped with a long table, chairs and an overhead projector.
The meeting room is booked here. Anyone can take a look at the booking calendar but you will need a Gmail account to make a reservation. The Secretary for Organizational Affairs can provide further information and create accounts for the booking calendar.
