Are you a first-year Bachelor's student or will you be starting a Master's or pre-Master's programme at the Faculty of Humanities? Then come along and get to know your fellow students, the University Quarter, our study associations and other initiatives from the faculty. We look forward to seeing you this week in the Atrium (Vendelstraat 7), where free coffee and tasty drinks are waiting for you every day.

The second edition of Warm Welcome Week is full of activities that will ensure you to start the academic year well-prepared. The programme is organised by the faculty association ALPHA; the study associations Ragtime, SCIO, Kleio, Offscreen, Helios and Etcetera; our magazines Babel, SOAPBOX, Eindeloos and KAT-blad; and VOX-POP, the Faculty of Humanities' creative space.

Meet your new fellow students, study association members and UvA staff during a game of table tennis, our comedy workshop or while making brain pancakes. All this and more will take place from 13 to 16 September 2022.

This week the Atrium (BG5) will be converted into a hang-out to meet each other, have a drink and maybe meet your new best friends. You can walk in and out all day long and you will find a ping pong table, a football table and a range of (board) games. Coffee, tea and sweets are ready for you all day long and at the end of each day the bar is open for tasty drinks to enjoy together. Hopefully we'll see you there!
