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/postorius/lists/pt-en-info.list.ayy.fi/. 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.     CHEMeleons Games!

Interested in playing futsal or basketball, or maybe both? If your answer is yes, don't hesitate to join our official sports team CHEMeleons! The games are for all CHEM students, don't require previous experience and on top of that it's all free.

All games are played at Otahalli. Futsal will be played on mondays or tuesdays @21-23 and basketball on thursdays @16-18.

Information about the games will be posted in the official CHEMeleons telegram group: https://t.me/+WJVjenUlkpI0YWM8

So what are you waiting for? Grab you shoes and come to play! And if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)

Anna: How is it possible that I tane two weeks off this year and I get sick on both of them? Downhill skiing was plenty of fun, despite all the snow (or lack thereof) seemed to snow here while I was gone. Luckily I can throw myself into work again and organise the Song Exams… I can’t wait to hear the sweet sounds of your singing <3 Take a note from the fish

 

 

Eetu: Hi! I no longer know what season it is, but don’t care either, because this weather is PERFECT for Laskiainen! It’s also exam week, which is kind of a bummer, but fortunately I only have one exam, on Tuesday, so my suffering will be ending quite quickly.
