Latest news from the student union office
Board member Julia Tofferi presented the latest news. The AYY board has discussed with Aalto leadership the upcoming hybrid model for autumn as well as the meeting practices of hallopeds. AYY’s own corona exit plan has also been prepared and discussed with special status associations. Rentable spaces have been reopened. In total 50 applications were received to the club rooms and storage spaces that have now been allocated in JMT1, JMT6 and OK20. Associations without any space in Teekkarikylä were prioritised. The new name of the museum is Museum of Student Life. Over 100 name proposals were received, of which 15 were selected for further evaluation. Tutors number over 1000 also this year, and the spring tutor trainings went well. The Otakaari housing projects made some progress, and the City of Espoo has started the street planning of Otakaari.
Other items
Chair of the board Milja Leinonen presented the mid-year review of the student union plan of action. The representative council approved the changes to the student union constitution the second time. In addition the repco approved the amendments to the election bylaws, the rules of procedure of the repco and the board, as well as to administrative and economic regulations. A single member of the repco presented to the council a proposal on amending the housing regulations to take into account the right of residence spent during mandatory military service. The repco decided to instead approve the board’s proposal on requiring the board to take the matter into account when further revising the housing regulations by 2022. The handling of the meeting point on assignment of properties will be continued in the next meeting in autumn.
