 CU Point

Newsletter

 for international students

 

Dear International Students,

To start the newsletter off, we have a challenge for you. Help us come up with a new motto for CU Point, and we’ll reward you with university merch! “Information and Services in One Place” no longer adequately expresses everything we do.

What we offer has been expanding over time. As you know not only from our newsletters, we also oversee topics such as support, personal development, well-being, sustainable development, equal opportunities, information and much more. You can find out what we do for students, staff and alumni from our website. Please send us your ideas to info@cuni.cz by the end of March.

Now back to the newsletter. In addition to new information and events, we have prepared for you once again the Students Activities section, where we will offer several events organized for you by other students and also introduce you to Safe Space, a feminist collective at CU.

We hope you have a smooth summer semester.

Student Activities

With International Women’s Day approaching, we would like to introduce you to the university association Safe Space, a feminist collective at CU. Its objective is to create a safe and supportive space for everyone. The collective attends demonstrations together or organizes its own events, such as Gender Fridays. These educational Friday evenings covering various topics are often also in English. The topic and language of these evenings are presented on their social networks – Instagram or Facebook.

In addition, they organize events (their own and for the public) where it is important to simply relax and make friends – trips to nature and cultural events or, for example, “Safe space sings” – singing just for fun. The association also initiated the creation of a unisex toilet at the Faculty of Humanities where feminine hygiene products are provided.

Meet Our Student Ambassadors

 

Just as last month, you can now meet the new friendly face of one of our student ambassadors. Manuel is from Mexico, studies at the FSV, and enjoys hiking and swimming. He knows all the ins and outs about the opportunities and services available to our international students, so do not hesitate to get in touch with him.
