The mood among  students was then mostly critical. There was a feeling of injustice at them being collectively punished, and anger that there was never a check-up on who it was that actually had been responsible for the vandalism. <\/p>\n<p>The students ended up having to make an action plan for parties with a higher level of safety before they yet again were allowed access to the campus buildings.<\/p>\n<p>Now, two months later, the students&#8217; initiative, which includes a greater use of campus service personnel at parties, has been approved by department management.<\/p>\n<h2>To deliver party plan<\/h2>\n<p>The Department of Political Science&#8217;s facebook page announced 7 Nov.:<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbDepartment management has had a good and constructive dialogue with the board of <em>Jacques D<\/em>, the <em>tutors\u2019 liaison committee<\/em>, <em>Active Political Scientists\u2019<\/em> study board representatives and representatives from the <em>Revue<\/em> and worked out a new concept for better and safer parties at the Department of Political Science.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe concept has been discussed in various management units at Department and Faculty level.

The mood among  students was then mostly critical. There was a feeling of injustice at them being collectively punished, and anger that there was never a check-up on who it was that actually had been responsible for the vandalism. <\/p>\n<p>The students ended up having to make an action plan for parties with a higher level of safety before they yet again were allowed access to the campus buildings.<\/p>\n<p>Now, two months later, the students&#8217; initiative, which includes a greater use of campus service personnel at parties, has been approved by department management.<\/p>\n<h2>To deliver party plan<\/h2>\n<p>The Department of Political Science&#8217;s facebook page announced 7 Nov.:<\/p>\n<p>\u00bbDepartment management has had a good and constructive dialogue with the board of <em>Jacques D<\/em>, the <em>tutors\u2019 liaison committee<\/em>, <em>Active Political Scientists\u2019<\/em> study board representatives and representatives from the <em>Revue<\/em> and worked out a new concept for better and safer parties at the Department of Political Science.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe concept has been discussed in various management units at Department and Faculty level. This has resulted in the Dean&#8217;s approval from today, repealing the ban on parties at political science.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In the future, all students who are responsible for larger parties need to meet with Head of Department Anders Berg-S\u00f8rensen at the beginning of the semester and present the semester\u2019s planned celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the students&#8217; initiative includes a plan to inspect the premises before and after parties and optimize the use of guards to keep an eye on risk areas on campus.<\/p>\n<h2>Good process<\/h2>\n<p>When the University Post recently talked to Head of Department Mikkel Vedby, he praised the student-led process, but could not yet confirm whether there was an approved agreement.<\/p>\n<p>Emilie Kirstine Heide from <em>Active Political Scientists<\/em> has also been happy with the process and feels that the students&#8217; work has been given recognition from management and the preparation of the plan has been taken seriously by students.<\/p>\n<p>Both the management, the study board, and representatives from the Department\u2019s student union, revue organisers, as well as the study programme&#8217;s tutors have been involved in the process.  It now finally looks like it is time yet again to fill up the fridge with cold brews.<\/p>\n<h2>Rare restrictions<\/h2>\n<p>It is rare that the University of Copenhagen put such harsh restrictions on students&#8217; beer intake and social activities.<\/p>\n<p>If there has been a debate it has been about the study intro camps for freshmen.<\/p>\n<p>However the Faculty of Humanities introduced a new, restrictive, alcohol policy in the fall semester of 2013. Beer sales were banned on all weekdays except Friday, where beer can be purchased beer after 17.00. <\/p>\n<p>One of the reasons for this move at the time was, according to faculty director Kristian Boye Petersen, episodes of \u2018actual vandalism on buildings and equipment.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Uni-avis@adm.ku.dk<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"ArticleEnd"},{"acf_fc_layout":"OtherStories","headline":"","hand_picked_posts":false,"references":false,"category":false,"theme":false,"number_of_posts":"4","style":"default"}]},"taxonomyData":{"category":[{"term_id":44,"name":"Campus","slug":"campus","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":44,"taxonomy":"category","description":"","parent":0,"count":1547,"filter":"raw"}],"post_tag":[],"post_format":[],"expression":[{"term_id":15,"name":"News Article","slug":"news_article","term_group":0,"term_taxonomy_id":15,"taxonomy":"expression","description":"","parent":0,"count":11492,"filter":"raw"}],"translation_priority":[]},"featured_media_url":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/fest_statskundskab_0.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2487","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/12"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2487"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2487\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30889,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2487\/revisions\/30889"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2488"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2487"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2487"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/uniavisen.dk\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2487"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
