Every now and then each of us desires to express our own creative and artistic spirit. 🎨 Admittedly studying the law does not provide us with adequate opportunities to express our-‘creative’-selves; on the contrary, our studies significantly limit our ample time to engage our passions. Thus, if you love to write, want to diversify your CV references, and you would desire to try something new, then be aware that Nexus is offering you the ability to manifest your creative nature by contributing to the Summer edition of Nexus’ biannual Magazine. 📰

The summer edition of the Magazine will have the following theme: “Life post-covid and the environment.”
This means that the topics may range from how the pandemic affected the mental health of university students to how the education system responded to the covid conundrum. 🏫
We are accepting many various formats, such as interviews, poems, personal informal articles, etc. The word limit that we are aiming at is 550 words. If you are interested and would like to try this activity then please remember that the deadline for signing up would be the 21st of May, while the final deadline for submitting your work would be the 31st of May❗

“Dura Lex, Sed Lex” is the University of Groningen’s first International and European Law podcast! Embodying the saying “for students, by students”, the show aims to focus on a variety of themes relevant to International and European Law, as well as International Relations. During this season, Alissa Poenaru and Anna Scherer are exploring law in an international context, starting with basic concepts and following into the intricacies of the legal field. In order to add value to their inquiry, they conduct a series of interviews with experts in all areas of law. Check out their work at https://duralexsedlex.buzzsprout.com/ or on instagram and stay tuned for exciting new episodes!

Week 1, Week 2, Week 3 ... We should be honest with each other, looking back at it, it is mostly an anxious blur of images. Highlighting Treaty provisions, recalling relevant case-law rules, and trying not to starve to death are just some of the challenges that we are currently facing during the exam block 📚

That is why our excellent tutors have been diligently preparing to create a crash course for 1) Introduction to International and European Law🌍; and 2) Contract and Tort Law 📝. They know what you need to know, and you know that this can help you recapitulate all of the relevant topics and rules for the upcoming exams.

For Introduction to International and European law, come by on Tuesday, March 29th, and Wednesday, March 30th.
For Contract and Tort Law the sessions will be held on Sunday, April 3rd, and Tuesday, April 5th. Prices are 10 euros for Nexus members and 12 euros for non-members. Don't miss out on this opportunity to supplement your studies❗

The link below will take you to the payment form. Alternatively, you can check out our Linktree. https://forms.gle/Gh2f3jZM6XG2Xqpb9
We hope that your preparations for the exams are going well, and we want all of you to succeed😊

Let’s be honest, studying the law is quite tough at times and is the cause of numerous all-nighters and sleeping issues.

It’s international women's day! ❤️
We would like to take this opportunity to highlight the wonderful women of Nexus! As each year passes, many fields of work continue to lessen the gap between the percentage of men and women in that field, and law is no different. 🌎
More and more women are joining the field, and with a representation of strong women in leadership positions like our board members, it’s easy to see why the law is truly a profession for everyone. 📜
