Olympic Wall to honour RUG students
Over the years, a great many University of Groningen students have combined their studies with top-level sports, usually with the help of the University Topsportregeling [top athletes’ regulations]. All University of Groningen students who have ever competed in the Olympic Games have now been immortalized on a Wall of Fame at the University and Hanze University Sports Centre.
The weekly online video magazine Unifocus highlights topics related to the University of Groningen in the fields of research and society, student life, teaching, policy and internationalization.
