In order to involve international TU Delft students and employees in the municipal council elections, the debate in the Aula was held in English this time. The atmosphere was amicable, but the discussions were hard.
The Executive Board of TU Delft offers its apologies and is ordering an external investigation into possible irregularities within its agreement with the police. It also issued a striking request.
Terminate the agreement governing the sharing of personal data with the police. That is the advice the TU Delft Works Council has given to the Executive Board. Pressure is also coming from another direction: on Wednesday, the GroenLinks and PvdA city council parties submitted written questions regarding the future of the agreement.
Management assistants at TU Delft want to earn as much as newly hired colleagues. That’s why on Tuesday morning they handed a petition—signed 405 times—to the Executive Board. “As individuals, we haven’t succeeded in getting a pay raise, but as a group we’re stronger.”
Chess master Anna-Maja Kazarian played a simultaneous chess match against 24 participants at TU Delft’s sports centre X on International Women’s Day. “Men have dominated the chess world for so long. It is inspiring that she is breaking through the stereotypes.”
Delta recently revealed that TU Delft and the police have had a covenant in place for years that regulates the sharing of personal data. What does it say, what went wrong in 2024, and what does Amnesty International think about it? Delta took a closer look.
Former Delta columnist Bob van Vliet was the TU Delft employee whose name was passed on to the police by the Integrated Safety and Security department in 2024. His columns, one in particular, were (partly) the reason for this. Experts and journalists condemn TU Delft’s actions.
Not a world record, but a pleasant afternoon nonetheless: on Tuesday afternoon 3 March, at 3:14 p.m., around five hundred people stood in the shape of Pi on the sports field at X. It was a festive celebration of the number Pi and the retirement of mathematics professor Kees Vuik.
