On the second day of the Orientation Week Leiden (OWL), we welcomed over 300 students to the Kamerlingh Onnes Gebouw (KOG). They received a warm welcome from our Faculty Board and the traditional 'stroopwafel'.
During their morning at the Faculty, the new students received tips & tricks from our current international students, they acquainted themselves with the ins & outs of the Law Faculty and competed with each other in a Kaboot quiz on Dutch and Leiden habits.
The quiz was especially popular. What are the official languages? And are the Dutch really that direct in their approach? Afterwards, students were well acquainted with Dutch culture and able to enjoy a well-earned lunch at the restaurant.
Among our OWL participants, there are 75 exchange students, 100 master's students and well over 150 advanced master's students from all corners of the globe. We would like to wish all new students the best of luck during their studies and hope they will have a fantastic time in Leiden!
