I        Common things to remember

 

1.     Get your PT’s membership

 

If you didn’t pay the membership fee for Prosessiteekkarit, you can fill the membership application here. The payment information will be sent to your email address.

 

2.     PT’s weekly newsletter for members

You can join the PT mailing list at https://list.ayy.fi/mailman/listinfo/pt-info. This mailing list is used to inform members about upcoming events and other current affairs. A weekly bulletin is sent to the list every Monday, and by reading it actively you will be aware of the current student activities of the association and the rest of Otaniemi.

 

3.     PT’s Telegram-group and information channel

Do you want to follow and participate in discussions regarding all PT members? Do you want to hear the ideas and thoughts of students from other classes as well? To do this, there is #PT, a common Telegram group to all PT members.

You can join the General Discussion Group #PT on Telegram from this link. The group is for both formal information and informal discussion. Please read the group rules when you join the chat.

In addition, PT has its own one-way information channel on Telegram, which works with the same principle as Captains’ Inform. It’s used for informing about events and condensing the weekly newsletter for all members. You can follow the information channel here.

4.     PT x TiK x SIK Regular Sport Sessions

Pack your indoor shoes and head to the ball sports hall of Otahalli every thursday at 21-22! There you will be able to play ball games with TiK, SIK, and other PT members. The sport will change every week.

5.     Associations PauseTime

 

Looking for a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life? Take a well-deserved break and come to the pHuone to participate in Association’s PauseTime! 🥰☕️

 

Common PauseTimes will be organized weekly. Any exceptions will be announced. From 16:15 to 18:00, there will always be someone from the board so you can for example easily buy overall patches or get points for your point card during that time. Depending on the wishes of the people present, the break can be spent by playing games, having chit chat with a nice cup of coffee/tee on the side or even watching a film. Come to meet old and new PT-friends and make yourself at home in the association's living room!

 

This week there will be no PauseTime because of the exam week!

 

You can get a Fuksi Point from participating in three PauseTimes!

1.     English Bachelors’ Sitz

 

Jolly good show!

 

Put on your fines liveries and prep your prim and posh manners for the wildest tea party of your life as the Eng B.Sc Sitz take over Smökki in style on the 22nd of October!

 

Put aside your jealousy of the lifestyle of British Royalty (RIP The Queen) and join the other English Bachelor Guild fuksis for late afternoon tea with a twist. The evening will begin with a cocktail party at 17.30 and the sitz themselves will start with the ring of the gong at 18:30. No dilly-dallying, there are three delicious courses and delightful guests from all five bilingual guilds waiting for you with plenty of tea to spill!

 

You don’t want to miss this!

 

  1. Process Optimization 25.10.

 

The Process of 2022 was launched with potential and on schedule. During the fall, we have monitored the progress of it and found the source material excellent. However, in order to achieve the best result and to maintain the steady state of the process, fine parameter adjustment is required. It's time to optimize the process!

 

Welcome to The Process Optimization 2022 on Tuesday the 25th of October! The optimization will be performed during the evening in the gloom of Otaniemi, so keep your schedule free from 16:30 onwards and remember to pack some warm clothes fit for the cold Finnish weather and some cheery Prosessiteekkari -spirit!

 

This is a significant step on your journey of becoming a Prosessiteekkari, you don't want to miss this!

 

Registration for the event ends the 21st of October!

 

  1. Save the date: Nightmare in Teekkari Village 29.10.

 

Teekkari Village has been faced with a suspicious amount of mishaps recently. The Captains joined forces and set off to figure out if supernatural beings could be behind these misfortunes. What they discovered could seal not only their fate, but that of all of Otaniemi…

 

As autumn darkens the sky, we’ll join Inkubio in celebrating Halloween on the 29th of October starting at 16:30. You’ll get to go around Otaniemi together in groups and solve all kinds of mysteries, each more devious than the next. The night will peak with an afterparty at OK20. The signup for the event will open in Inkubio's Ilmomasiina on the 18th of October at 12 and both guilds will have their own fuksi quota. In the signup you can wish for one person who you’d like to be on your team.

 

The sign-up for the event can be found here: https://www.inkubio.fi/ilmo/event/192

It's time for the autumn Professor cafés! So come to the first floor lobby of the School of Chemical Engineering on Monday 24.10. at 4:00 p.m. to have a coffee with the teaching staff. You can freely chat with the professors about things that concern you, such as your major, summer jobs, etc. Now is a great opportunity to talk about your own feelings and influence the teaching!

 

  1. Save the date: Officials Fair 3.11.

 

‘How can I become a PT Official, and what do they even do?’, you may be thinking. Don’t worry! In the Officials Fair on the 3rd of October, you get to hear about all the different things you can do for PT, and how you can apply for them!

 

  1. Save the date: PTxAS MegaChill 4.11.
