However, the highlight of the introductory day was the social event: curling. This event offered the new students the opportunity to get to know students of the higher semesters and some professors. To defy the cold of the curling hall – 6 degrees Celsius are not exactly warm – the first step was to change to warm clothes. To make sure that nobody really had to freeze, the trainers carried out an intensive warm-up. Now the actual curling could begin. In small groups, each with its own coach, the art of curling was introduced. Nevertheless, a few falls could not be prevented and not every stone<\/em> landed in the house<\/em>. Even if it was all about the fun, a serious curling atmosphere could be perceived at the end.<\/p>\n

After curling, students and professors met in the bar opposite the ice field for drinks and snacks. This was not only a good opportunity to discuss the performance on the ice, but also to make first friends or to clarify questions about the Master’s programme.<\/p>\n

This event on ice was a great start to the upcoming semester! So, let the curling slogan \u201cGood stones\u201d be true for all the new students.<\/p>\n
