The history of snaps songs
One of the things students in Lund value a great deal is singing songs from the beloved songbooks of nations and unions. Our very own LundaEkonomerna songbook was revised before Lundakarnevalen earlier this year and we can now find no less than 175 songs in it. But from where does in fact all snapsvisor originate…
Late night food review: Part 2 (Gott och nära)
(“Gott och nära” is commonly referred to as “Helsingkronakebaben”) It’s a late Friday night and time for another late night food review. This time I’ve had to make my way to Helsingkrona’s Schlager night. It is not a personal favourite, but it had to do. After a long day of studying, and a lot of…
General Knowledge: Holger Craaford
Holger Craaford. The name rings a bell? It may be because he has lent his name to the infamous Café Holger. More probable is that you have seen his name in capital letters pass over your head every time you enter Ekonomicentrum. In order for you to be able to boast with your knowledge to…
The chance of a lifetime
Why did you choose to study in Lund? Well, for several years in a row, Lund University has been ranked as one of the 100 best Universities in the world. This was of course something I took into consideration when I made my choice one and a half year ago to begin my studies…

Famous people within several different fields, such as politicians, media profiles,…

Late night food review: Part 1 (Challes)
It is a regular Thursday night in Lund, almost 01:30, and my legs have gotten weary from dancing at Casa. Just like me, everyone at Casa is enrolled at the university, and I hope they have been good students and done their work before heading out for the night. As for myself, my head is…
Gräddgasquen 2018
The 20th of October, the Social Committee hosted the sittning ‘’Nightmare at AF’’. Just before the sittning, the President of LundaEkonomerna had been kidnapped. And he was not alone. Roughly 30 LundaEkonomer had been kidnapped by our little brother Uppsalaekonomerna (with a revenue only half the size of LundaEkonomerna) in order to attend the one…
Lack of study places to be solved
Lund University School of Economics and Management might be good in many aspects, but a matter that students have been complaining about for a long, long time, is the lack of study places. At the moment, there are about 400 study places at LUSEM, but as the number of students is drastically higher, around 4000…
