Merry Christmas, everyone!

The last union Parliament of 2019 was held on December 9th. Parliament elected a new Parliament chairperson and alternate chairperson, as well as a party committee member.

Parliament decided to approve of an updated version of the union policy for alcohol and drugs.
There were also discussions about closed-door meetings. At the next Parliament, a potential clarification in the regulations about what applies when it comes to closed-door meetings will be brought up.
There was discussion on how we can ensure that the new active union members can feel supported by the older members, while still feeling free to explore their positions on their own. This discussion will continue on in the future.
Parliament also continued the discussion on long-term goals and were given a presentation from the HMS chairperson of the results from the “Are You Okay?” survey.

I want to take this opportunity to say thank you to the Parliament representatives of 2019 for their great work this year!

The board had its 8th meeting this Thursday and all members gathered to discuss some important matters. The Chairperson of the Health, Environment and Safety Committee (HMS) was there to present the result of the survey ”Are you okay?”. This was followed by some input from the board members on how the committee can present the survey. The Board held a first discussion on what to do during the spring’s Hällsningsgillet for new students at the university and the board’s event working group will ensure that LUNA has a fun and informative presents. The board also held two discussions on matters lying further into the future, a possible common sign-up system for all of Studentlund and a possible change in local situation.

The board is also doing the final touches on an event for the Music Aid (sv: Musikhjälpen). Next Thursday you can find board members outside of the astronomy building all afternoon selling science gingerbread cookies with the full income going to the charity!

Board meeting number 7 took place on Wednesday afternoon at Astronomihuset. After reports and notifications from the various parts of the Union the main discussions were about the best and most fair uses of the LUNA Project Fund - connected to some applications made. Additional discussion was about plans to cooperate with a company to create brochures for LUNA in order to spread information about the Union to students in a better way.

The eighth Paliament of 2019 was held on 2019-11-18!

During the meeting, Parliament elected a Mentor Committee chairperson and three committee members. Two LUNA representatives for SFSFUM were also elected.

There was discussion on potentially having long-term goals for the union, but Parliament wanted to continue the discussion next meeting. There was also discussion on the Parliament patch, and an update on the Pop-Up Shop was presented.

This Tuesday, the union board had its sixth meeting of the operational year. The board approved of an application for the project fund, approved of extending the union google drive storage, approved of the Sports Committee creating an Instagram account, and lastly discussed how the board should approach the currently ongoing Science Village discussions in LUS.

These meeting updates on the website haven’t been kept up during this operational year (the presidium apologizes for this), but will be starting up now!

An incredible amount of students bought their lab-coats so far this semester and we are amazed as well as humbled by it!

We feel like it is important to for us to remind everyone that there is a user manual for rocking your amazing lab-coat. Learn this user manual by heart to make your experience the best that it can be!
