TICKETS FOR THE OPENING PARTY OF THE ANNIVERSARY EVENTS ARE AVAILABLE!
The 79th Executive Board consists of seven students. We are responsible for managing all matters concerning the ACLO. Everyone has their own function-specific tasks. In addition to all the hard work, there is also plenty of fun; getting to know new people, activities, trips, conferences, drinks and of course the hours you spend together at the office. The balance between work and fun is just right at the ACLO. We are at our office in the Sports Centre every Monday to Friday. The entrance is next to the entrance of the Koos Duppenhal. Our door is always open, so come by for a chat or a cup of coffee!
