Studying does not have to be only hard work with tears in your eyes. This is why the Recreational Subcommittee of Kortepohja Student Village, known as KVAT, is determined to bring some fun to your days! KVAT is one of the many ways you can make your life more balanced, exciting and filled with new experiences. After all, isn’t that what student life is all about?
All residents of the Kortepohja Student Village are automatically members of KVAT, but its clubs and events are open for all the other members of the Student Union as well. The subcommittee arranges and organizes different clubs, courses, events and visits. The heart and soul of the subcommittee is the Secretary of Kortepohja Student Village, Mari Lähteenmäki. In summertime she is also responsible for the housing arrangements of the university’s different summer schools.
