The Academic SocietyThe Academic Society - the meeting place

The Academic society is known by many as the centre of Lund’s student life. This is mostly because the AF-Building (AF-borgen) is centrally located in the middle of Lundagård and a lot of student life in Lund is held in its fine rooms.

The association is primarily lead by an Executive Director, a Communications Director, and a Program Manager. In addition, there is an “Edil” which is responsible when students rent rooms in the AF-Building, and a housing ombudsman who is the student’s voice AFB (AF Bostäder). All of these jobs are held by students.

The large size and variety of rooms in the AF Building make it possible for students to hold activities, such as a student radio, television, information service, litterature groups, lectures, orchestras, ensembles, choirs, balls, etc. The AF Building is a natrual meeting place for all students, not least through Cafe Athen, which is the study area in the building, which also holds many events for students. Many major celebrations take place in the castle.

Activities in The Academic Society

The Academic Society conducts activities in a number of areas through its thirteen committees, with a focus primarily in culture. There are students who become engaged and involved in these activities and as a member of Studentlund we welcome you to get active in the committee that interests you. Becoming an active member will give you the opportunity to mingle and meet many Swedish students, as well as learn about and be around Swedish customs. You may even pick up a bit of Swedish!

Events by The Academic Society

The Academic Society holds many events throughout the year and we welcome you to attend. A favourite of international students has been The AF Games (AF Spelen) which are held every term and challenge students in Lund to participate in a fun all day long activity, such as sumo wrestling or laser tag. In the spring semester of 2012 AF had the honour of being able to send a bus on the 2012 Tandem trip, and many of AF’s actively involved members got to attend. The picture on the right is from that trip!

The Project Fund

The project fund is a fairly new concept at AF, and its a grant fund that allows students and student organizatons to apply for funds to start up new projects. Do you see something missing in Lund? What about a fair for international students? A bake sale? A concert on the roof of the AF Building? If you have any ideas you should visit www.af.lu.se or come visit us on the third floor of the AF Building to chat about it!

The Student Nations of Lund UniversityThe word nation normally means country, but in Lund the word also means something entirely different. Today, 338 years after the first nation in Lund was founded, much has changed but the nations’ original purpose remains: to provide students with a good and congenial atmosphere while they live and study in Lund.

The nations are essentially large social clubs forming the heart of students’ extracurricular life in Lund. The nations provide housing, serve lunches, brunches, run pubs and restaurants, have regular and free sport activities, and arrange nightclubs and other festivities and many more activities. Contrary to the political-sounding appellation, the nations are named after geographical locations in Sweden. Membership in a nation provides foreign students with the chance to really get to know Swedish student culture. The nations are NOT select clubs nor are they like fraternities/sororities.

As an international student you’re encouraged to visit the different nations, feel the atmosphere and join the one where you feel the most comfortable. In general terms, the nations offer similar activities – but with different flavors. The activities are usually based around a nation house” (the nation’s headquarters), where some of the members live and there the nation’s office is located. To participate in a nation’s activities, however, you’ll need to be a Studentlund member and show your student ID card.

Students are responsible for the management of the nations. Only students work within the nations and they do so on a voluntary basis. Being active in a nation will give you the opportunity to participate in a wide range of activities and a chance to get to know Swedes and their culture while having fun and making new friends. You also get to participate in special events and activities only available to volunteers and/or get some kind of discount at many of the nation’s activities.

Kuratorskollegiet - The Lund University Council of Nations

Kuratorskollegiet - perhaps better known as KK, is a cooperation between twelve of the thirteen student nations that exist in Lund.* The purpose of Kuratorskollegiet is to increase cooperation between nations, but also to take care of more general issues affecting the nations as a whole when working with the University, the Academic Society, student unions, municipalities and the state.

Kuratorskollegiet includes several committees where foremen from the nations meet, exchange experiences and act as organizers for some of the nations joint projects and events. To mention some, Idrottskollegiet (the Sports and Athletics Council) which organize the Tandem Relay, a bike race from Gothenburg to Lund which takes place every year in May and the nation sports series. Through Tidningskollegiet (the Magazine Council) the nations also have a magazine together called “Nationernas tidning”.

Some of the often weekly activities that can be found at nations are mentioned below:

Lunch – You do not have to pay more than 30-40 SEK for a good lunch. On weekdays, there is always at least one nation somewhere in Lund that is serving lunch made by students for students. Good food – good prices.

Café/Brunch – On weekends, you can have a big breakfast, coffee and pastries at several nations.

Pub, restaurant activities – Several times a week, each nation offers you food and drink at student-friendly prices. Some pub evenings can offer live music, quizzes and the restaurants offer great food (made by students) at terrific prices. Be sure to makea reservation, as these dinners are popular. After dinner, the music starts and so does the dancing!

Nation Magazine – A majority of the nations have their own publications featuring articles by members covering the latest news and nation information – and they usually have a sprinkling of pictures from the latest party.

Sport – Many nations have regular sporting events, ranging from aerobics to volleyball, with more unusual things such as rock climbing every once in a while.

Radio Broadcasts – Most nations have their own radio program once a week on Lund’s student radio, Radio AF (one of the Academic Society’s committees, see page XX) – tune in and listen at FM 99,1.

Choir – Almost all nations have their own choirs that accept singers of all levels. Some nations even have special choirs for more advanced singers. Being in a choir might even improve your Swedish skills by learning the Swedish language melody through music.

Parties and festivities – At the beginning of each term, most student nations organize a Newcomers Reception (‘Novischfest’) to welcome all new members to the nation. During the terms, most nations also organise traditional parties such as the Crayfish Party in August (‘Kräftskiva’), an Eel Party (‘Ålagille’) in October, the Goose Party (‘Gåsegille’) in November, as well as Christmas and New Year’s parties in December, the ‘Last of April’ festivities that celebrate the end of winter and the arrival of spring. In addition, most nations also organise a ball at some point during the year, where evening gown and coat tails are required, and where you are served a lovely dinner accompanied by speeches, and then dance until the sun rises. Very traditional, a lot of fun and an experience for life! Please note, however, that these events are very popular and that you might have to sign up/buy a ticket well in advance.

Excursions – Most nations organize excursions, such as theatre and opera visits, as well as trips to visit other parts of Sweden or the other Scandinavian countries.

Spex, student ensembles – are an integral and very old part of Lund student culture. Nation spexes are amateur productions in which all students may participate. A variety of skills are required to produce these plays – everything from seamstress and make-up staff to actors and musicians. Apart from what has been mentioned above, you will find

10 Student Life

The student unions of Lund UniversityLund University has nine student unions, with one at each faculty, plus a doctoral union. The student union to which you belong depends on the subject you study. The student unions work with education policies/politics and represent the students at the local level in relation to institutions and faculty. The unions and their representatives work with each body at the university addressing issues that impact the students’ situation. The representatives are appointed by the student unions to stand for the students at a central university level, and where they may help to negotiate issues with the municipality of Lund and Region Skåne.

The Association of Lund University Student UnionsThe student unions have a cooperative organization called the Association of Lund University Student Unions (LUS). The LUS chairman and vice chairman meet the University’s vice-chancellor at least once a week and serve on the university’s management team.

Do not hesitate to contact the unions if you have any questions, or if problems should arise concerning your studies. You are also welcome to contribute your experience by taking an active part in your student union, helping to improve conditions for future students.

The student unions, through LUS, also run a variety of public services for the students, like the foundation Kreditkassan, which offers loans to students at Lund University and Lillsjödal, a cabin in a recreation area. The cabin is located just outside Sösdala in Hässleholm and has 40 beds and is available to rent with a good discount for students.

The student ombudsmanThe university has a legal obligation to ensure that every student gets an education free from discrimination. Even so, a student might be treated unfairly or could be offended by the university or its employees. These may be cases of discrimination. So, if you, or somebody close to you, feel you have experienced this, then the student ombudsman can help. The student ombudsman can offer information and advice and assist you in your contacts with the university. No matter how minor or serious the problem is you can get assistance. Visit the website for more information!Web www.studentombud.se

LundakarnevalenThe student unions are also jointly heads of Lund University Students carnival, better known as Lundakarnevalen. Lundakarnevalen is the essence of all that is good in Lund’s student life. It is joy, music, karneval-beer, people, large tents, small tents, great entertainment, trains and satire. Whatever it is, it is just for you!

Approximately 5 000 students apply as volunteers and together we create the joy, the community and the organised madness that is Lundakarnevalen. At the same time, hundreds of thousands of spectators and visitors come to Lund to watch the different shows, the karneval-train, to hear, to laugh, to cry and to simply enjoy all the wonder of the world’s best Lundakarneval! The carnival is held every four years - the next time is 2014.

LundagårdLUS also publishes Lundagård, an editorial independent student newspaper. Lundagård is made by students for students and monitors and examines both the university and the student life. The magazine is published once a month during term time and is sent to all students at Lund University.

Lundagård is Sweden’s oldest student newspaper and contains articles, news, cultural pages and opinion pages. Student news, blogs and chronicles are published every day at www. lundagard.se

There is also an English site at www.lundagard.net

Dentists (Tandläkare)For dental care you can visit the district dental clinic (Folktandvården), find a private dentist or visit the dental school in Malmö. Folktandvården is often located in the same area as the primary care centres (Vårdcentralen).

Dental care in Sweden can be rather expensive and standard medical insurance generally only covers necessary care. If you come from a country in the EU/EEA or from Switzerland only to study, you are entitled to essential dental care at the same cost as those who are insured in Sweden. To obtain subsidised dental care for necessary dental treatment, you must show proof of identity and your European Health Insurance Card. If you are registered in the Population Register in Sweden (Swedish personnummer), you are entitled to subsidized dental care on the same terms as other people who live in Sweden.

InsuranceHealth insuranceDepending on your citizenship and if you are an exchange student or master’s student, different regulations apply when it comes to your medical insurance coverage and to filing a medical insurance claim. Unless you are a citizen of the EU/EEA or Switzerland, you need to pay your expenses initially at the health care clinic and then go through the insurance claims procedure in order to get reimbursed by the Legal, Financial and Administrative Services Agency Kammarkollegiet. For more detailed information regarding health insurance, please visit http://www.lunduniversity.lu.se/current-students/health-care/medical-insurance.

If you have received a Swedish personal ID number you are entitled to the same health benefits and pay the same patient fees as all Swedes.

General student insuranceAll students in Sweden are covered by an accident insurance while on university premises and on their direct way to and from the university. Very specific definitions apply. Please get in contact with your department if you need to make use of the insurance.

EU/EEA citizens and SwitzerlandYou are entitled to access public medical services if you first have registered with the social insurance office in your home country. You will be issued with a European Health Insurance Card (EHIC). You need to have the card with you when you seek medical attention at the health care clinic or hospital in Sweden. Hereby, you will pay Swedish patient fees directly and do not need to make an insurance claim.

Tuition fee paying students / scholarship holdersIf you are a non-EU/EEA student who is required to pay tuition fees for your studies at Lund University, you are covered by a special insurance, FAS +.

Exchange students – non EU/EEA citizensThe Swedish government provides special insurance for exchange students (Student IN) to provide, for example, accident coverage, coverage for medical expenses (where no other cover exists) and liability coverage. In order to make a health insurance claim, contact your coordinator at Lund University. Bring the original receipts and a completed Student IN claim form. Your claim will be sent to the Legal, Finance and Administrative Services Agency (Kammarkollegiet) via your coordinator.

Non tuition fee paying Master’s degree students – non EU/EEA citizensAs a Master’s degree student at Lund University you are covered by an insurance provided by Kammarkollegiet. The insurance is valid when you are in Sweden, so for travel outside Sweden you will need additional insurance cover which you should get in your home country. You need to pay your expenses initially at the health care clinic and then go through the insurance claims procedure in order to get reimbursed by the insurance agency.

20 Good to Know

Course studentsIf you are only studying courses at Lund University and are not enrolled in a Master’s degree programme or within a formal exchange agreement, you are not provided with any health insurance from Kammarkollegiet. Students who are not covered by this insurance must arrange their own insurance coverage. In Sweden, medical treatment is very expensive without any form of insurance. A private insurance that can be purchased in Sweden is found at Studentförsäkringar, www.studentforsakring.se.

Home and travel insurancePlease read the terms and conditions of the insurance coverage offered through Kammarkollegiet carefully. Most insurance agreements by Kammarkollegiet only apply in Sweden, so travels outside of Sweden during your studies are not covered. Therefore, you will need additional insurance, which you should get in your home country to avoid extreme costs that might occur. Remember to get some sort of certificate of the insurance. It is usually only possible to buy insurance from a Swedish insurance agency if you are registered in the Population Register and have a Swedish personal number.

All students who rent a room through LU Accommodation are required to have Third party liability insurance to cover any unexpected damage to the room and furniture. However, all students are recommended to have this kind of insurance since it gives you extra security if something happens.

AccommodationLU Accommodation (formerly known as the International Housing Office)LU Accommodation (LUACC) administers a limited number of student dormitory rooms, apartments and shared apartments. These must be applied for well in advance. Rooms offered by LU Accommodation are rented for the full academic semester. The maximum rental period is until the end of an academic year, regardless of when you arrive. Because of this, if you are staying longer than to the end of the academic year it is very important that you register with AF Bostäder to get on their waiting list for accommodation for when you have to leave your LU Accommodation room. There is however an exception for non EU/EEA students who are required to pay tuition fees and are admitted to full-time studies of at least 30 ECTS. These students have a housing guarantee for the normal duration of a study programme (1-3 years).

AF Bostäder (AFB)If you study in Lund for more than one semester you can be placed in the housing queue at AF Bostäder (AFB). AFB is an independent foundation founded by the Academic Society in Lund.

To be able to be part of the housing queue and live in AFB’s housing, you must be a member of the Academic Society. You are automatically a member of The Academic Society if you are a member of a Studentlund nation and have paid your semester fee for Studentlund.

Before each semester AFB reserve housing for the accommodation for new students. If you are new a student and live outside commuting distance to Lund, AFB holds a lottery for queue places for those who apply for housing the days around the arrival of the first letter of acceptance. The lottery takes place in the middle of July for the fall semester and the middle of December for the spring semester.

Web www.afb.se/en/

BopoolenBopoolen, “The Housing Pool”, is an advertisement agency for housing run by the Lund University Student Unions (LUS). The service is managed via their website where one can post ads for housing as well as search for housing ads. The Housing Pool does not apply a queuing system and does not charge any fees for their services.

It has come to Lund University’s and Bopoolen’s attention that some landlords demand a large deposit to be paid before any agreement is signed. Bopoolen recommends that you pay one month of rent in advance, which is standard in Sweden. When searching for housing on your own please beware of fraud and fraudsters. From time to time fraudsters are contacting people registered under “housing needed/bostad sökes” and put in fake ads on housing available. Do not send any money through Western Union. Do not send any money if you are not sure that the apartment exists and that you will get access to it. Make sure that you get a receipt for all payments you make.

Web www.bopoolen.nu

Housing at a nationAll nations also have housing where some of the nation’s members live. How many rooms and apartments the nations have in total varies. But all nations credit if you are active in the nation as a volunteer, by getting you a better chance of getting accommodation at the nation. Also almost all nations also set some apartments aside in the beginning of the semester especially for new students. Contact “husförman” at your nation of interest for more information about housing.

Get a bike!Although the public transport services are good, a bicycle is by far the quickest and easiest way to get around in Lund. Cycling is the most common mode of transport in both Lund and Malmö, and not only among students. Do remember that because of large numbers of bicycle riders the police put in a lot of effort to check that everyone follows the traffic regulations and on-the-spot fines may be issued for disobeying the rules of the road. Take some time to learn the different traffic signs and regulation before you take your first bike ride. The most common Swedish road signs are presented on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Road_signs_in_Sweden.

The city of Lund arranges a bike auction with used bikes a few times every semester. Also check the local newspapers and notice boards for secondhand bicycles, or put up a note on the notice board at your department, or in the AF-building. There are many places to buy a new bike in Lund. For a more complete list, visit gulasidorna.eniro.se and search for ‘cykel’ in ‘Lund.’

Things to consider when buying a secondhand bike When buying a bicycle you should carefully check its equipment. According to Swedish law, a bike must have reflectors on both wheels and also a proper front and rear light for cycling after dark. It can be tempting to buy a used bike since it usually can be bought at a lower price than a new one. However, it can save you a lot of money to check the status of the bike before you buy it:• Is the chain rusty or black with oil? That can be a sign that it needs to be

replaced? • Used bikes are often in need of new tires etc• Do the brakes work properly?• Do the lights on the bike function?• Look at the bike’s general condition. Beware of rusty bikes!• Try the bike; brakes, acceleration, gear. The best test you can do is to bike

uphill. If it feels ok, then it is good bike.

Keep in mind that bicycles are in great demand, so be sure to get a good lock for it! One the first things you also should consider when planning to buy a secondhand bike is the risk of it being stolen property. Bike theft is one of the most common crimes in Lund and Swedish law states that a stolen bike will always be returned to its rightful owner, even if you have bought it in good faith. A person who has bought stolen property does not have the right to any compensation. Therefore, there are a few important things to consider before buying a used bike:

Is it stolen?• Consider the price; if the deal sounds too good, it probably is. Be very careful if

the price of the bike is very low in relation to the value. • Be careful if the seller has many used bikes on sale at the same time.• Ask where the bike is bought and ask to see receipts from previous owners.• Ask for a receipt with the seller’s name and ask to see an id.• Note the frame number on the bike or the SEC-number. You can then contact

the police in order to find out if the bike is reported stolen.

TransportThe public transport system in Sweden is usually quite reliable. The Lund town buses converge at the city bus station called Botulfsplatsen (near Mårtenstorget) and serve the entire city. The regional buses (Skånetrafiken) provide service throughout Skåne and have their terminus at the Lund central railway station and at Bankgatan (also close to Mårtenstorget). At the railway station in Lund you will find three categories of trains – the purple regional trains (Pågatåg) for destinations within Skåne, the Öresundståg, (for getting around Öresund), as well as the long-distance trains run by the Swedish Railways (SJ) or Veolia. Please note, that tickets for SJ and Skånetrafiken are not interchangeable. As well, there are airport coaches that depart from the railway station (Flygbussarna).Flygbussarnawww.flygbussarna.se

The Swedish Higher Education SystemThe degree structure of the Swedish higher education institutions conforms to the Bologna Process, the trans-European drive for standardisation in higher education. The degree structure creates three cycles of higher education – a first cycle, second cycle and third cycle – each with minimum entry requirements. Degrees awarded at each level are defined in terms of the expected results and abilities of students (otherwise known as ‘learning outcomes’). Higher education institutions should specify objectives for all first and second cycle courses, describing the student’s expected learning outcomes at the conclusion of the course. This clarifies the knowledge each student is expected to possess by course completion in order to pass. The Swedish credits (högskolepoäng) are compatible with the European Credit Transfer and Accumulation System (ECTS). One term of full-time studies equals 30 higher education credits, and one academic year of full-time studies equals 60 higher education credits. For more information, please visit: www.studyinsweden.se

At the libraries you will find course literature and reference material, places to study and often computer and group rooms where you may work. Each library’s website provides information about its particular hours of operation, address, and available course material and other resources.

Within the LUB network, each student belongs to a ‘home’ (or ‘base’) library. Logically, this library is usually the one most closely connected to the student’s discipline. Your home library will issue your library card, which may be used at each library within the network.

Cheating and PlagiarismWhat is plagiarism?Plagiarism is the adoption or reproduction of ideas, words or statements of another person without acknowledgment of the original author or creator.

32 Academic Matters

33

Three quick examples of plagiarism:• A false claim that you have written a paper, when it is in fact another student

who has done all work. It is considered as plagiarism even if the other student has given his/her permission.

• If you rewrite, or paraphrase, a section from a book/article/website without mentioning that the information is from that source.

• To copy a section of a book/article/website without mentioning that the information is copied from that source.

How does Lund University work with plagiarism?Lund University has a long experience of working against plagiarism. All advisers and teachers are educated to look for signs of plagiarism in the students’ work. As a complement Lund University also uses complex computer software to scan all essays to find traces of plagiarism. Any departure from the rules on plagiarism and cheating will be reported to the Disciplinary Board (Disciplinnämnden) at Lund University. The penalty for cheating and plagiarism may be a warning, or suspension for a period of up to six months. Suspension means that the student is not allowed to participate in lectures, seminars and exams or use the library or other university facilities. Students who have received a scholarship may have to return their scholarship money. Exchange students may be forced to terminate studies at Lund University and they will be reported to their home university. Serious cases of plagiarism will be punished according to Swedish law.

What does Lund University demand from you?Most departments have their own rules for how written papers and articles should be conducted and presented. Always follow the instructions given by the lecturers! In academic environments there are standard procedures regarding the use of the texts and work of others. You must always state the source when using other people’s work in your own text, regardless if the source is a book, a magazine article, the Internet – or even a verbal communication! As long as you take notice of the rules of academic writing and implement these methods in your work you will not only be free of plagiarism, but also be able to publish a better essay. It is in your very best interest to read about academic writing and work in that manner.

“StiL” and the Student Portal“StiL” – your student account at Lund UniversityLund University offers a number of electronic services and resources to facilitate your work as a student. Your StiL identity is your personal account at Lund University and through it you gain access to, for example, electronic resources at the University, your personal page at the Student Portal, the University wireless network, your e-mail account at Lund University with 25GB space and address book to other students at LU. Exchange students receive login details to their StiL-account in the personal envelope distributed when checking in on arrival. International degree students have the opportunity to activate their StiL-account before arrival.
