See the new internationals at orientation meeting

Getting to the orientation meeting proved to be a hassle for some students.

First you had to find the KUA lecture hall. For some students it proved such a difficult task, that they arrived up to an hour late.

Then, once you arrived, you were overloaded with flyers. Studenterhuset, USG and Erasmus to name a few. University Post was also there to give out our postcards which also serve as a free drink voucher at our Party March 16, 2012.

Gallery: February Orientation Meeting

Once again the orientation meeting gathered together new international students at KUA for important information and friendly networking.
Outside, minus degrees and snow filled the air. However, this did not seem to affect the students much. When asked by the University Post whether they've experienced colder weather, the majority of students raised their hand.
Check out the new students or see if you can spot yourself by clicking the first photo.

Newly arrived international students are, once again, roaming Copenhagen’s wintry campus areas. Though overwhelmed and baffled, they’ve come here with fresh fashion inspiration from far-away nooks and corners all over the world. The University Post attended University of Copenhagen’s Orientation Event for newcomers to find out what the cat’s dragged in this time.

Gallery: New international students at Science

New international students from throughout the world were brought together for an orientation meeting at Frederiksberg campus, the new Science faculty. The temperature outside was minus 10 degrees Celsius, but less than 50 per cent of the students present at the meeting answered that this was the coldest weather they’d ever experienced. Check out our footage, and see more photos on our facebook page here.

Gallery: Exam day at Biology

Nearly 100 students from Biology, Bachelor's level, filled the banquet hall at the Geo-centre of University of Copenhagen Monday last. A photographer from the Danish section of this site, Universitetsavisen, got permission to get snapshots of the nerve-racking event.

Bogus heroin story: It was powdered painkillers

The substance found by Danish police has now been recognised as a legal substance made from paracetamol and caffeine.

This is according to the newspaper Ekstra Bladet, following our story on the heroin not being heroin. How police could mistake the two substances is not clear.

Police had charged a member of staff at the Faculty of Science for being in possession of 14 kilos of heroin.

No answers why

Danish police drop the specific charges against the 64 year old campus service officer at August Krogh Institute.

War of the Wardrobes: Boston vs. Copenhagen

Copenhagen's last line of defence is a spirited group of international students as Boston University makes a surprise strike in our ongoing fashion shoot-out, the War of the Wardrobes.

New international students of the University of Copenhagen have two leitmotifs when choosing clothes for their first days in Denmark: 'Water proof' and 'keep warm'. See the new international students of Copenhagen pose here.

Gallery: War of the Wardrobes from Boston

On an unusually warm and sunny Janurary day in Boston, Massachussetts, our reporter Sarah Mongeau-Birkett took her camera and found these students. From classy clothes to 'whatever it fits', students from Boston University seem to be quite diverse in their fashion styles. But they all have something in common: their style is not random.

We have set the fashion concept of Boston students against the style of the new international students at the University of Copenhagen. See the competitors, the new exchange students form the University of Copenhagen here

Library helpless after mystery theft of laptops

Laptops, phones and wallets have been taken by an as yet unidentified man, in what is believed to be a series of organised robberies at the new social sciences library at Gothersgade 140.

The items have been removed from busy rooms, apparently without disturbing other students, over the course of the past two months.

The police have been involved, but so far to no avail.

Lost work on Bachelor's thesis

One student, Ditte Heede, was present when two laptops were stolen.

'Heroin' found on campus was not heroin

In a bizarre twist to the campus heroin story, police now say that the substance was not, in fact, heroin.

The police have now dropped these charges aginst the staff member. The staff member is apparently still being held in Germany in connection with another drug case.
