The year 2024 is Tempaus year

Published:
The eight-year wait is over. The rumours are true – the year 2024 is Tempaus year! In Tempaus, students have an impact on the world with a twinkle in their eye, yet seriously.

This year, Tempaus will be arranged after an eight-year break. Tempaus harnesses the collective power of students to inform the public about issues that students consider important and topical. More information on the theme and implementation of this year’s Tempaus will be published during the spring.

The origins of Tempaus trace back as far as a hundred years into technical student culture. Similar activities have historically been arranged in other fields of study as well. Tempaus can take almost any form. The latest Tempaus was held in 2016, when the goal was to raise the importance of basic education to the national debate. Over the course of one week, students visited nearly 1,500 Finnish primary schools. 

Tempaus 2024 is aimed at the entire Aalto community, regardless of the year or field of study.

Tempaus is coordinated by Aalto University Student Union’s Tempaus Committee, which was recruited through an open call for applications at the end of 2023. Tempaus Committee consists of: Niina Tapanainen (Tempaus Chief, Chair), Juha Malinen (Vice Chair), Ilkka Törrönen (Advocacy), Jani Anttila (Corporate Relations), Leevi Kosonen (Corporate Relations), Senja Santala (Events), Eeti Ahola (Communications), Ville Mansikkaniemi (Marketing), with mandate positions held by Tero Karesniemi and Oona Sorala (KY), Vilma Ikola (Teekkari Section) and Kathleen Lindgren (TOKYO).

The new polyteekkari flag finally raised in Otaniemi

The 15-year wait of the Otaniemi teekkari community was rewarded in early November, when the community ceremonially introduced the new polyteekkari flag at the 153rd Teekkari Tradition Ball. The previous flag that had united the teekkaris of Otaniemi was the flag of the Student Union of the Helsinki University of Technology, which served the community from 1909 to 2009 and was laid to its well-earned rest with the founding of the Aalto University Student Union. This is how the new flag came into being.
