No 8.marta līdz 11.martam mēs, starptautisko attiecību maģistrantūras studenti, viesojāmies nelielā Zviedrijas salā – Gotlandē, kas ir pasaules slavena ar savu universitāti un augstu izglītības līmeni. Brauciena laikā mēs uzzinājām kā rakstīt ne tikai maģistra darbus, bet arī zinātniskus rakstus, prezentējām savas pētījuma idejas, kā arī uzzinājām, ka viduslaikos Gotlande bija viena no svarīgākiem tirdzniecības centriem Eiropā. Piektdien pēc ierašanās un jaukām pusdienām Gotlandes universitātes kafejnīcā sākās jau pirmās lekcijas, kur mūs no sākuma iepazīstināja ar dienaskārtību tuvākajām dienām, kā arī mazliet pastāstīja par Gotlandes salas un universitātes vēsturi, kas bija ļoti interesanti, jo lielākajai daļai no mums šī bija pirmā viesošanās Gotlandē. Sākums bija patiešām daudzsološs, jo varēja noprast, ka turpmākās dienas būs notikumiem bagātas un intensīvas. Iepazināmies arī ar mūsu kolēģiem, maģistrantiem, no Gotlandes universitātes, secinot, ka ir jauki un interesanti

On October 5, 2009, the second stage of restoring the students’ punishment cell begins and it will take two weeks. A small room at UL main building preserves the evidence of the first educational establishment in Latvia – Riga Polytechnic Institute. Time gives things value, as well as damages them – the punishment cell during its 135 years has suffered losses - a great part of historical inscriptions and drawings have gradually faded away because of the dust, humidity and human impact. The University students put in the punishment cell for violations of internal rules used to kill their time by drawing and writing things, expressing themselves on the walls. The attractiveness of these inscriptions and the punishment cell as such has been confirmed by more than 2,000 people who visited it during ‘Museum Night 2009’ - the very first time UL Museum of History participated in it. The restoration work began in 2008; in cooperation with the UL Museum of History and the Academic

Aicinām studentus un skolēnus pieteikties pasākumam “Studenta kurpēs” un vienu dienu no 24. oktobra līdz 4. novembrim aizvadīt kopā, apmeklējot lekcijas un citas nodarbības un iepazīstinot skolēnus, kā noris studiju dzīve Latvijas Universitātē (LU). Pasākums “Studenta kurpēs” sniedz iespēju studentam pavadīt laiku ar skolēnu, kopā doties uz studijām, gūt pieredzi, jaunus kontaktus un draugus, un, protams, arī gandarījumu, ka esi kādu motivējis studijām, un, iespējams, tieši Tavu ieteikumu vadīts skolēns izvēlēsies studēt tieši pie mums, LU. Savukārt vidusskolēnam šajā dienā ir lieliska iespēja iejusties studenta lomā, piedalīties studiju procesā – lekcijās, semināros un laboratorijas darbos, iepazīt mācībspēkus, fakultāti, uzzināt, kādas prasmes nepieciešamas, studējot konkrētā studiju programmā, un kādas ir iespējas izpausties radoši ārpus studijām. Pēc anketas aizpildīšanas katram skolēnam tiks piemeklēts atbilstošākais students, balstoties uz izvēlēto fakultāti un studiju
