Dear reader,

Many a student has been dreaming of it for months: the opening of our lustwijnweek. A week dedicated to Burgundian enjoyment, wine consumption, and uninhibited fun. During the celebration of our fourth lustrum, Hèt Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" will do everything to ensure that many a student can finally escape their daily rhythm.

The theme of this month'like drink is not entirely surprising, given that Monday 4 December is the global Day of the Cork. A week marked by wine, like our lust wine week, naturally starts with uncorking a bottle!

Of course, there will be some surprises in honour of our lustrum and, as everyone expects, plenty of wine to accompany the evening. The festivities will take place in the usual GEWIS space "Het Dakterras" and will start on Monday 4 December at 17:00. We hope to see you all there for this grandiose celebration!

Met hoogachtende groeten,

Dhr. Oosterholt

Praeses der "In Vino Veritas"

Sioux Technologies, high-tech R&D and consultancy partner, will present two Mathware projects:

“Thinking outside of the ‘Box’ à performing a large optimization analysis on historical order data to minimize shipment costs, eliminate air and reduce CO2 footprint!”“Physical simulations have many use cases in industry. Take, for example, Formula 1: to estimate the performance of a car, one can simulate and analyze the flow of air around it. In order to find the optimal design, a general approach is to make tiny changes and see if it improves the flow field. This requires many simulations in little time, while these simulations usually take a lot of computational effort… This is where Model Order Reduction comes in: we will look at methods to simplify the mathematical problem, to greatly improve the computation time of a solution.”

Note: after subscribing, showing up is mandatory! There are 135 spots only with first come first serve, priority will be given to students that sign up with their GEWIS account.

Dear Reader,

It is with great pleasure that Hèt Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" announces the upcoming Public Fraternity Meeting. This is a unique opportunity for all members and interested listeners to get a glimpse into the internal workings and decision-making processes of Hèt Dispuut.

We open our doors and invite you to attend on 5 December. You will then have the opportunity to observe how we, with determination and a commitment to perfection, debate and deliberate.

This meeting will offer you an insight into how we work, the discussions we have and the decisions we make, which together shape the future of Hèt Dispuut. For prospective members, this is the ideal time to gain experience and possibly find inspiration for their own contributions to our community.

Details of the meeting are as follows: Date: five December two thousand and twenty-three Time: from 7 pm to 10 pm Location: GEWIS room "Het Dakterras"

For those who cannot enjoy the food at the Decadent Weekend, or who want to dine in company prior to the meeting, we offer the opportunity to sign up for dinner. We will then serve burgundy mussels. Dinner will start at 17:30, also in the GEWIS room.

We look forward to your presence and the valuable insights this public meeting will provide.

Met hoogachtende groeten,

Dhr. Oosterholt Praeses der "In Vino Veritas"

Dear reader,

The observant among you may have already noticed that there is a certain thematic twist to our lustrum activities. To celebrate twenty years of Hét Dispuut, we look back at our past and the activities that made our Dispuit so grandiose, obviously with a contemporary twist. So meet a jewel from our rich history: "Met de Fles op Tafel".

For many, "pub quizzing" is a familiar concept, even many an I.V.V'ers do not shy away from putting their inexhaustible knowledge on display. However, we, as gentlemen of Hét Dispuut, feel that an average pub quiz and similar knowledge tests lack something essential; a certain "je ne sais quoi". Just factual knowledge and trivia won't get you very far in life, and we at I.V.V know what's missing: tactical thinking skills. Bluffing, cheating, lying, and all the psychological games involved can make you triumph despite a lack of general knowledge.

Who doesn't want to look their opponent in the stern eye and say, "Of course, I know what the capital of Uzbekistan is"? As long as you are convincing enough and thereby force your opponent to give up, does it matter that it is Tashkent? Of course, it doesn't! What a fantastic feeling that is, so overwhelming that we want to organise the following for you all.

The gentlemen of Hét Dispuut will organise a bluff and knowledge quiz inspired by the highly successful NPO Show "Met het Mes op Tafel". Given the core principles of our fraternity, we will play "Met de Fles op Tafel". In case you are not familiar with the game rules you can find a rough translation here. In addition, the game rules and the course of the game will be clearly explained again at the beginning and during the activity.

Although "I.V.V will provide delicious snacks and wines" sounds like a given, we mention it again to allay any concerns participants may have. Afterwards, there will be a na-borrel, where you can look back on a successful programme together with your quiz masters and fellow participants.

Met hoogachtende groeten,

Dhr. Oosterholt

Praeses der Dispuut "In Vino Veritas"

P.S. This amazing spectacle will take place on 6 December 2023 at GEWIS. Only 25 spots will be available so register early, as the subscription list is first come, first serve.

Honored public,

It is our great honor and pleasure to inform you that this year, Hèt Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" will once again organize a wonderful and phenomenal weekend that will overwhelmingly be remembered as one of the eight wonders of the world! On the weekend of December eight, nine and ten, we will travel to a beautiful chateau to provide you with both drinks, entertainment, a filled stomach and a place to rest your head.

On Friday we will travel to the beautiful chateau, where you will be received with a warm welcome. Here you will have a chance to recover and change. This will allow you to temporarily leave behind the impoverished life of student life and let the inner Burgundian come to the surface. Thus, a delicious meal will be prepared for you and you will have the luxury of enjoying sublime wines specially selected by true connoisseurs!

Also, this is also the end of the Lustwijnweek and Hèt Dispuut turns twenty years old on the ninth of December! Therefore, we will also celebrate on the night from Friday to Saturday that GEWIS' longest living Fraternity has aged another year. Be especially prepared to celebrate this together with Hèt Dispuut "In Vino Veritas" and cherish this moment. Since this will be a real celebration, we expect everyone present at the venue at 7 p.m. for the evening meal.

On Saturday morning, you will have the opportunity to have a hearty breakfast and pick yourself up after the fantastic night before. However, there will also come a time when you will have to temporarily leave the chateau. Fortunately, even then, Hèt Dispuut knows how to provide an afternoon full of experiences to tell your children about later!

While you will have fun with the Saturday afternoon activity, some members of Hèt Dispuut will stay behind at the chateau, where we will prepare an excellent 7-course dinner that you will enjoy during the evening that follows. Here you will be blessed by the Magnum opus within the culinary world.

Upon your return to the chateau, you will be given the option (read: strong suggestion) to change your attire to clothes that honor what awaits you and fit the decadent level of The Weekend of The Year.

During the dinner, you will be entertained at several moments with entertainment prepared with all love and passion. When people are satiated and the last course is concluded, you will still have the opportunity to enjoy the fantastic dinner while sipping the remaining wine, so that everyone can go to sleep content and satisfied. When the sun begins to shine through the windows again and you slowly awaken from your sleep, though perhaps with some difficulty, and you have had a brief opportunity to have breakfast, we will ask you to help (briefly) with cleaning up the chateau. After which you will be free to tie up an end to this wonderful weekend and let it reverberate in your memory forever.

There will be room for 29 men for this majestic weekend, so please register quickly!

With due respect,

Praeses Oosterholt

P.S. Given that driving to the venue is required, please indicate if you are in position to grant your car and bring fellow students. If necessary, people with cars will be given priority on the registration list.

P.P.S. The registration list will open Friday, Nov. 3, 2023, at 1 p.m. If the 29 spots are filled within the hour, we will draw lots, otherwise we will use a "first come, first serve" rule.

P.P.P.S. Due to manpower, budget and space, we cannot guarantee that all dietary needs will be accommodated. Vegetarian is an option, but vegan probably not. If you have an allergy, we may contact you to discuss it, as we cannot rule out cross-contamination in the kitchen.

Moved from December 1st

Hello everyone,

We as a board think that it is very important to make GEWIS a more sustainable association, not only for our own future but also for the future of our successors and future members. Therefore we are working on new sustainability ideas, one of which is to provide guidelines for activities on how they can be more sustainable and to show what we as an association expect from activities. For these guidelines the board has already prepared a number of statements that we are passionate about and we want to discuss these with our members and you also bring new ideas!

We have divided these into two brainstorming sessions and in the first brainstorming session we will be discussing waste, decorations (and related items), clothing and food/drinks.

We hope to see you there!

Attention everyone! We're excited to announce the upcoming ski trip from February 17th to February 22nd. We'll be hitting the slopes and enjoying the beautiful winter scenery for five nights, with six days of skiing! But that's not all - next to the ski pass that is included in the price, we've got some extra options available for those who want to make the most of their experience.

If you're a beginner, be sure to sign up for ski lessons so you can hit the slopes with confidence. Please note that beginners will be required to pay an additional fee of 30 euros to cover the cost of mandatory ski lessons. And if skiing all day every day isn't your thing, we've got some side activities planned to keep you entertained, and the best part is: they're all free!

Now, here's even more exciting news! The city center is only a few minutes' walk away from the accommodation, making it super convenient to explore and have a blast in the evenings and nights at the many fun après-ski bars! Please be aware that ski gear and food are not included in the trip price. However, you will be able to rent everything you need via us, and most rooms have a kitchen that you can share together. There are also various restaurants nearby, ranging from cheap kebab spots to more fancy dining options. So, you'll have plenty of choices to satisfy your appetite and fuel up for the adventures!

Attention: We're thrilled to offer you an incredible opportunity at a maximum cost of just 650 euros for GEWIS members. Non-members are also welcome to join the fun for the same price (but GEWIS members have priority). The final cost may lower depending on factors such as group size, the number of beginners, and sponsorship contributions. Rest assured, our goal is to make the trip even more budget-friendly as these factors come into play. Updates regarding the trip costs will be communicated as soon as possible via our Instagram, so stay tuned!

If you're interested in joining us, mark your calendars for February 16th when we'll be leaving campus in the afternoon.

Dear (sportive) members,

Are you also looking forward to better and sunnier weather in coming spring? What better way to start off spring by running the most fun relay race of them all, the Batavierenrace! In the weekend of the 24th till the 26th of May, we from GEWIS will once again travel to Nijmegen to run together a distance of 175km to Enschede, divided into 25 parts, running during the night, in the morning and in the afternoon.

Like last year, we are running with two teams, so make sure to subscribe soon to not only run with us but enjoy the biggest student party in Europe on Saturday! If there are not enough subscriptions we will join with one team. In case of too many subscriptions, there will be a draw. We will sleep in our own tents on the campus of Twente University and every time a new team will go to their starting point to take over the responsibility of the prior team to run GEWIS to the finish. Hopefully, you're looking forward to this relay race just as much as we do (or even more of course)!

With sportive regards, GESPORT.
