3, 2, 1, ACTION!
We'd like to invite all Introparents of the introduction week '26 to the Introparent Bonding Activity! As you all (hopefully) know, this year's theme is Absolute Cinema. Therefore, before attending the introduction week, you'll have to show what you're worth behind the screens.
During this activity you will have to be smart like Oppenheimer, fast like Lightning McQueen, and show teamwork like The Avengers. To make sure each duo will bond well, we have a final prize for the winner!
You will also get some free snacks and drinks so that your tape won't run out of frames to make an amazing film out of this amazing activity!
Only one of the parents needs to sign up, along with their duo.

Dear members of S.V. GEWIS,
Every year brings its own trials and its own pleasures. For the freshman just beginning their studies, and for the veteran yearning for a salary above the national average, the same quiet expectation applies: that something worthwhile be made of the year. What that looks like differs from person to person, and what feels like a rut to one may feel like a welcome diversion to another. Yet there is one certainty upon which every member may rely without question: the Month'like Social Drink of The Fraternity "In Vino Veritas".
As we do every year, we are delighted to usher in the new academic year in style and abundance. And as we do every year, we strive to offer you something extra, beyond what you have already come to expect from us. White, red, and sparkling wines will flow generously, so that all your desires may be met. The customary delicacies will, of course, also grace the table. New this year is the knowledge we are proud to share: three of our gentlemen travelled to Reims to hone their craft in the fine art of champagne, apprenticed at the renowned house of Pommery.
As newly minted connoisseurs, we shall unfold this phenomenon, this reception, for you with care and refinement. We therefore warmly invite you to join us on the 31st of August at 17:00. Refreshments, and naturally an abundance of wine, will of course be provided.
We look forward to seeing you in appropriate attire, ready for an evening of decadence.
Cheers!

After a hectic introduction week where you have (hopefully) made a lot of new friends it is time to really start your student life. And no student life without studying. However, you might already heard a lot of concepts you have never heard of, like "Canvas", "TE Timetable", "Plan App" or "Osiris". But don’t be afraid! There is no need to worry. Attending this training will teach you all the basics you need to know to survive all the software at the TU/e.
In case there are more then 70 people that want to attend, there will be a "first come, first serve" policy. In that case the remainder can view the session online.
Don’t forget to bring your laptop!

TLDR: cool activities, dark cave, sign up
Are you ready for underground adventures in Valkenburg? Tight tunnels. Pitch-black passages. Walls you'll be clinging to. On Saturday October 3rd, we're ditching the daylight and heading deep into the dark underground for a day that'll push you way outside your comfort zone.
Whether you're squeezing through narrow cave corridors on a bike, conquering rock walls in the dark, or venturing into the unknown on an adventurous cave tour, this is the kind of day you'll still be talking about at the next borrel!
There are 3 activities, out of which you will do 2! When signing up, rank your top 2 activity preferences:
🚲 Cave biking
Discover this great underground landscape, by cave bike! Cycle through the cave, going left, right, seeing a high ceiling, then low again, narrow, spacious, no idea where you are anymore.
🔦 Adventurous cave tour
During this escape tour through the caves, you will discover the stories of the quarry workers, and encounter obstacles they left behind. There will be crawling, sneaking, shooting and even crossing the water!
🧗 Cave climbing
The Scramble Tour will take you to places that normally remain closed to the public. One of the guides will take you over several challenging courses including a via ferrata, and an abseil into the old well. Manoeuvre over the obstacles and stare into the depths.
💠No preference
Be aware: activities will be split 10/10/10 across the group, so you might not get your 2 faves.
