Introduction Week
"The final party of a fantastic introduction week in 1969 is etched in my memory."

I saw the exam results posted on the wall
" I studied Dutch language, but it didn't go well."

The city of Groningen
"For centuries the city of Groningen has been the largest, cleanest and most powerful in Frisia"

Talking to a Nobel Prize winner
"There I was, novice student, conferring with one of the greatest minds in the field."

The city I call home
"My study life here in Groningen has not only broadened my horizons, knowing that sushi in Japan tastes different, Latin American loves hugging, kissing and dancing, Dutch people don’t drink beers all day."

Interdisciplinary teamwork
'At one point a friend asked me to come and live with her in a dorm.'



That lecture room
"I lived in a student house in the Oosterpoort for a month when I made my debut as a student of Law."


Strange Man
"In Groningen, students would only go home for Christmas, Easter and during the summer break."


The Party
"Saturday morning I got up at 7 AM - because I wanted to exercise - when our son Paul called."



Student housing
"The screaming came from under the floor and was accompanied by a bumping noise."

Reunion
"We follow each other's lives: friends, marriage, children, relationships that break up, new relationships, careers, family troubles and so on."

Student Housing
"In 1911, Tettje was hired by the owner of the building located on the Oude Kijk In’t Jat Straat 18 where she started to run a cigar shop downstairs and student housing upstairs."

Bike Life
"When I was a student at the University of Groningen, I lived at the Trompkade in the Oosterpoort."

Like Thunder...
"After studying until 11 PM we were leaving the library of our institute at the Heresingel at the same time."

A Student Meal
"I started to study in Groningen in the year 1965 and I would always cook in my room."

Common Ground
"Me, a girl from Southern China, and him, a boy from Northern Europe, had nothing in common until the summer of 2007."
