GUDAR first meeting

Hi @ChapterInfo!

Have you ever wondered what stupid things they were up to at the chapter 20 years ago? Or have you always wondered why Konglig Datasektionen is Konglig and not Kunglig? Then maybe you'd be interested in GUDAR (Gamla Uvar på Datasektionen med Anrika Redogörelser). It is the new committee for the Chapter's ancient history!

This Wednesday (17/4) 17.30 we have our first official meeting in E34! So if you have any historical mission you are eager to work with or if you're just interested then join us! The meeting will take somewhere around an hour so that we'll be able to make it for the ticket release for METAspexet 2024. Hope to see you there!
