The Election Year of 2018
The ballot is stronger than the bullet These famous words were once upon a time expressed by Abraham Lincoln. However, by no means, does that imply that they are less important now than they used to be. Rather the opposite. 2018 means election year in Sweden. And for us as students, it means building up…

The application for this year’s Honours Track is now open. But what does Honours Track really mean? Who can apply and how does it work?

A Day at IKEA
At 8 o’clock in the morning a cold day in April, I went to Lund C to meet up with a group of 20 students, travelling to the deep woods of Småland or more specifically to the town of Älmhult. Älmhult is a place that might not have been much for the world, if it…
Carnival preparation, part 1: the nations
Lundakarnevalen is celebrated only once every four years. Of course it is vital to be well prepared for this bonanza of fun, and it can be hard to even get an overview of the oceans of activities. Therefore, we at Lundtan are making sense of it all for you. First up are the cornerstones of…
