Today the elections at our university are starting!

You can find your candidates at:
wahlen.stura-md.de

This is what you do:
1. Go to the lsf and login.
2. In the top right corner should be “Online-Wahlen”.
3. Click on “Zugang zum Wahlportal” then on “Hier geht es zur Stimmabgabe” and you will be redirected to the website for the election.
4. Once you are on the new website you will have to click on “Weiter zur Wahl”.

If you have any further questions, take a look on the university’s website:
uni-magdeburg.de/unimagdeburg/en/University/Structure/Elections+2020-p-54528.html

You can find the official announcement with this link 💻 It’s only available in German.

Please talk to your examiner for using one of these regulations.

We are presenting the FakIng-Cloud, the new possibility for you to access the repertoire of old material. Under cloud.faking.cool you can now access old protocols and exams from home, on the road or from university. What you have to do to log in to the cloud? Just register with your Unimail and confirm the mail, then come to our office during our office hours, get activated and you’re ready to go.

Please keep in mind that the cloud lives from the fact that you have to submit new exams or protocols from time to time, so that the students after you can still view the latest material. Soon we want to establish a points system that rewards hard-working helpers with one or two cold drinks or other great surprises.

The last couple of weeks we organised two bike tours for you. Here are a few impressions of the fun we had 😀

Don’t forget to register for the wintersemester until July 6th, 2020. If you forget it, you will have to pay a delay fee.

Our blood for beer compaign goes into the next round. This time we can not throw a party so alternatively we are giving away presents. Our FaRa-FEIT-Fan-Package consists of a FaRaFEIT-Cup, a beer and a sew on patch.

It’s easy to join:
1. Visit the university’s bloodbank.
2. Ask for our list and write down your name and faculty.
3. Donate blood.

You can pick up your present during our office hours.
