New student party – Sustainable chemistry – Prime minister – Four hundred votes for Schoemakerstraat New student partyAlthough several banners are hanging across the Mekelweg urging students to vote for the student council elections on May 9 and 10, one is missing.
That of the new student party, Kritische Studenten Delft. Fourth-year student Frederik de Wit set up the party alone in order to have vociferous debates with the TU’s executive board, as he thinks the current student parties AAG and Oras have fallen asleep. Furthermore, De Wit can’t be bothered with mundane issues, like the price of coffee; but instead wants to take on the TU’s future. However, he hasn’t yet shown how he intends to implement his ideas.
Sustainable chemistry
The faculty of Applied Sciences will co-operate with the University of Leiden on a new course of study, called Sustainable Molecular Science and Technology. Officially, this new course will start in September 2002, but an experimental version of the study will already start next September. Much must be done before then, however, because hardly anybody knows about the course or how to enrol.
Prime minister
Interested in Dutch politics? On Tuesday May 1, Dutch Prime Minister Wim Kok, and Ad Melkert, chairman of the Dutch Labour party, can be seen and heard in the Library from 12 to 13:30. They’ll debate with six members of Kabinet online, a shadow cabinet existing of young thinkers.
Four hundred votes for Schoemakerstraat
Delta’s Internet vote on what way the future tram should travel has resulted in a win for the Schoemakerstraat. However, it won dubiously. Before Easter the Mekelweg was leading, but in three days the Schoemakerstraat passed its rival route by adding 415 votes to its tally, all coming from the same Chemical Engineering building, where, most likely, a degenerate computer hack devised a way to enable multiple voting. Unfortunately, nothing can be done to prevent such tricks.
