How to Choose: AEGEE edition

A while ago, we got a suggestion to write an article about how-to-choose certain items for an event. Here, at The AEGEEan, we have some experience with drinking, sleeping and travelling, so we might provide an entertaining guide in choosing the following items for an event.   Booze At a European event, you might want to bring some of your… Read more →

AEGEE’s SubCommie Teams, Pt. 2 -La Tripu-

Behind the Commissioners of the Juridical Commission and the Network Commission some AEGEE members make an unknown, but very relevant work: they are the SubCommissioners. The AEGEEan decided to talk with these people who, perhaps, might be the next Commissioners. In the Network Commission, every Commissioner is assigned to some specific locals, and is aided by a number of SubCommissioners. For example,… Read more →

LTCs Across the Network

There could be nothing more straightforward than a Local Training Course: it is a course, it is local, and you will be trained. Nevertheless, the most generic names can have the most varying results, and, because of this, no single LTC is the same. This is why the AEGEEan sat down with Alejandra Piot from AEGEE-A Coruña, Raquel Pastor from… Read more →

Agora Through History: What Happened at Previous Agorae

Incredible things always happen during an Agora. The AEGEEan checked old material and asked some old members for interesting stories about this issue, a funny way to approach the upcoming Spring Agora Bergamo and read some legends of the past.  The Agora can be something legendary for those who have never been there, since they probably heard many stories before departure.
