Plask 2021
Your ovve is of course your most important possession. Keeping it clean is thus of the utmost importance, but can be tricky. You may only clean it whilst in it, and that's exactly what we are going to do! On the 29 of July we meet at smedsuddsbadet to bathe in our overalls. Bring something to eat, drink and your ovve.

Deadline for registering reciepts in cashflow
Hello chapter! There will be a deadline for registering spring expenses in cashflow. The deadline will be the 1:st of July. Before this day, the expense needs to be registered in cashflow. By "spring", we refer to all expenses that occured before the 1:st of June. However, you don't have to hand in physical reciepts before this deadline, this can be done during the autuum.
META will be closed for the summer. Therefore, the reciept folder will reside with the Vice tresurer. If you want to hand in your reciept during the summer, you can contact the Vice tresurer on vkassor@d.kth.se and book a time to hand it in. Some have previously experienced that you recieve an error when sending mails to this email. This is something we have been trying to solve. However, for the time being, this is nothing to worry about, since all emails are recieved anyway!

Free talks with a psychologist through Mindler
THS offer to all students at KTH to use Mindler to get upp to 5 talks with a psychologist. You are not requiered to be a member of THS to use the offer. You just need to be a student at KTH.
Mindler is offered as an alternative that all students can use to get support. You can book a time within 24h.
For instructions and more information about how you as a student use the service go to this link: https://bit.ly/ths-support21. Worth noting is that you need a code to get the talk for free, this will be sent to all students today(29 of april) through KTHs news letter that is sent to all students. If you do not find the email you can contact Ävelin at studiesocialt@ths.kth.se to get the code.
Bake with Bakis
Now Bakis has finally sobered up and will for the first time hold a baking event digitally!
Because you have probably forgotten how to bake, you probably need to learn it again. Therefore, I have decided to have a small walkthrough of pastries that are easy to bake. Be sure to have common ingredients such as oatmeal, butter, cocoa, sugar, flour, eggs and other standard ingredients.
The event itself will be held on Computer Science's Discord, so see you there at 17:17! Unfortunately, the section will not be able to sponsor ingredients because the tax authorities do not like that we have fun at a distance.
P. S
If you would like to join Baknämnden, it is good to bake something of your own before and show it during the event. Be sure to sign up for the interest form before doing so.

Application to Student Union Council extended deadline
Hello chapter! I just want to announce that the deadline for running for the Union Council has been extended to April 27th. So if you forgot to apply before, this is the perfect opportunity to do it!
Login service disruption has been resolved
All systems should be operational again.
If you happen to run into one that is not, please contact IOR via email (ior@d.kth.se) or through Slack (ior.slack.com).
Login service disruption
IOR is investigating a disruption in our integration with KTH:s login service on several of our webapps.
The affected systems redirect to a KTH error page upon attempted login. We have a fairly good idea what the underlying cause is, and are working on a fix.
Chess-tournament
Hello Chapter!
On wednesday we will have a chess tournament to decide the chapter's best strategist. This week we will see you in gathertown, a social platform that can be compared to Habbo's forgotten nephew. The link to gathertown will be the same as during the chapter fair (ie https://gather.town/app/uu7HqOH2jkNM1Izn/sektionsmassa).
See you as always at 17:17 but the tournament itself will probably start around 18:00, so make sure you jump into gathertown before then.
To make it easier for us, we would appreciate if you could sign up in this form (https://forms.gle/nZQ8VnF3bHNq7hv57) before Wednesday, and create an account on chess.com. Prylis has also promised a prize to the winner. Calling the prize legendary is, to say the least, an understatement, according to prylis that is.
We can also take the opportunity to say that METAspexet will arrange a theme release pub in the same gathertown room, so if you have a little downtime between the matches, there will be a lot of other things to do.
Have a good time and see you on Wednesday.
Motion writing session
On monday the 26:th of April the D-directorate will arrange a motion writing session.
What is a motion writing session?
It is a opportunity for you that want to write motions for Val-SM to discuss motion ideas with the board. The session can also be used to get feedback for a motion that you have written.
Should i write a motion?
Good question! If you have an idea of a change that you think will make the chapter that little bit nicer, then it could be that it is a motion that you want to write. Attend the motion writing session so we can discuss it!
The motion writing session will take place digitally via Zoom. A link to the meeting can be found here.
