3. Welcome!
Good morning everyone, and welcome to the introduction for the psychology bachelor! Welcome to a 120 new first year students that will from hereonout reside in our tutorial groups, lectures and library! Some of you may have only hopped a few countries, or even a few towns over if you already lived in the Netherlands or are in fact, Dutch, some of you might have traveled halfway across the world to get yourselves here! Which is so spectacular to me, you brave idiots. Do you guys wanna see who is here? You guy wanna take a look?

4. Bachelor Psychology: Class of 2015-2016
Between 100 and 126 students
22 Dutchies
40 Germans
Representatives of 38 countries
Waaaaauw, would you look at that. Germany is representing, Like, I stress myself out over having to go to Groningen and you guys just go ‘whooptiedoo you know what’s fun, going to a country that is SUPER flat everywhere, where it rains ALL the time and where they eat this really weird black stuff as candy, and I’m just going to go there for a degree!” Speaking of, dropjes, can I see hands in the air: Who has eaten dropjes? Okay, that’s quite a few. Not all though. I know I didn’t exactly give it the best promo just now, but it might be a good test: If you have a dropje and you like it, you are already 50% part of the Dutch community. If you have a dropje and you don’t like it, you have to go out and find something else Dutch to eat that you actually like, and BAM, you’re also part of the Holland family. You guys wanna try a dropje? Come on, get excited, you’re in a room, a stranger is offering you candy: What can POSSIBLY go wrong? While you eat your candy, I will introduce myself and I will no longer be a stranger. So then it’s okay, right? Okay.

8. Who am I?
Lianne Keemink Coordinator of International Psychology Bachelor T
My name is Lianne Keemink and I am actually the Program coordinator! I graduated in psychology here for both my bachelor and my master degree, and I started working here as a teacher before being the person who takes care of the international psychology program and its students. As you can see I am a very brave and courageous person, as long as there is ice cream involved. In all seriousness, together with the study advisor who will join us later, I am one of the people you go to when you don’t know what to do, who to ask, where to go. I make a lot of jokes but I do take you very serious. Unless you ask me if I can send you the exams and the answers, in which case I will laugh so hard you’re going to have to carry me to the medicine department to make sure I’m okay.

23. Enrollment Student cards Diplomas
Studentenkaarten: studenten die een Nederlands adres hebben in SL ontvangen de studentenkaart op dat adres. De kaarten die je hebt zijn dus alleen van studenten met een buitenlands adres
o   Graag studenten laten tekenen voor ontvangst!
-          Vandaag 28/8 staan 30 studenten nog niet ingeschreven – dit is de lijst die je hebt. Iedereen draait overuren, dus ongetwijfeld ziet de lijst er maandag beter uit, maar iedereen die op het laatste moment heeft betaald heeft niet de zekerheid dat de inschrijving compleet is. Stress! (bij de student).
o   Studenten kunnen checken in Studielink of hun collegegeld is verwerkt.
o   Ze moeten ook controleren in hun to do lijst of er geen dingen meer open staan.
o   Bij twijfel kunnen ze langsgaan bij ESSC.
-          Enveloppen met diploma’s: Iedereen die een certified hard copy bij ons heeft ingeleverd, krijgt het weer terug. Wat ons betreft hoeft dit niet afgetekend te worden, maar als je wilt, mag dat natuurlij.
-          Niet ingeschreven op 1 september? Dan hebben studenten nog een week om alles in orde te maken. In de tussentijd wordt hun ERNA wel geblokkeerd.
