Event

MC Sitz Without Borders

Is your inner wanderlust stifled by the rona-monster? Do you need to quench your travel thirst? If you could go anywhere, where would you go?

We know we miss the luxury of travel in these times of closed borders. Join us on Saturday, the 26th of September at Casa at 19.00 for the Masters Committee’s first Sitz of the year – Sitz Without Borders!

This sitz will be in English. You will find all the necessary information below, but remember to dress according to the theme – so dig out your ski or snorkeling gear, or whatever you wish you were wearing if you were on the holiday of your dreams! Or mix and match, wear your snorkel with your snowboarding pants! We want to be able to guess where you wish you could travel to right now – the best outfit will receive a prize! For those who are less familiar with the wonderful sitz culture of Finnish universities, a sitz is a traditional academic dinner party that entails singing, toasting, eating, some fun competitions and awkward jokes.

WHAT: MC Sitz Without Borders!
WHEN: Saturday 26/9 at 19:00
WHERE: At Casa (Hietaniemenkatu 7, entrance through the gate in the back)
FOR WHOM: All current Hanken students but especially master’s students!
PRICE: 15€/12€ (with alcohol/without alcohol). The price includes a three-course meal with beverages, a closed afterparty and an overall patch.

SIGN-UP:
Sign-up will open on Monday, September 14th, at 12:00. The number of seats is very limited, so we recommend you to be fast to secure your spot on this trip!

***THE SIGN-UP HAS ENDED BECAUSE THE MAXIMUM CAPACITY OF THIS EVENT HAS BEEN REACHED***
If you managed to fill out the sign-up form before it was closed, your name is on the list and we’ll see you on the sitz! 

NB! We recommend you to bring a songbook (SHS Sångbok) for the sitz. You can buy one from the IB bookstore! Bring a pen so you can leave notes in your fellow sitz-goers’ books 

NB#2! The after-party is BYOB (Bring Your Own Beverages) for everyone! If you bring more than one drink, please have them in a bag, so that it’s easier to store them. MC does not provide drinks for the afterparty, only the Sitz itself.

NB#3! Entrance opens at 19, and the Sitz starts at 20. Arrive early so you have plenty of time to socialize, store your afterparty drinks, and find your seats before lift-off at 20:00.Hope to see you then!
