TOIMINTAKERTOMUS 1999

Annual Report 1999

Introduction

In 1999, the Kuopio University Students Association for Computer Science - SERVERI increased both its membership and its activities. A record number of new members joined SERVERI, who, along with the old members, were actively involved in the events organised by SERVERI. SERVERI took a leap forward in its cooperation with businesses. After the 10th anniversary, the biggest SERVERI event, Buuttaus'99, took place in September. SERVERI was praised for its activity by the Kuopio University Student Union (KYY) and others. SERVERI sought to work with its sister organisations to address the problems of studying. Various topics were discussed with the management and staff of the institution, but the discussion could have been even more lively and serious. During the current year, plans were made to change the rules of SERVERI. The amendment will be presented for the first time to the General Assembly at the Annual Meeting 2000. SERVERI's website was redesigned during the year and stamps were purchased for the organisation.

Activities of the Board of Directors

At the 1999 Annual General Meeting, Arttu Häyhä was elected Chairman of the SERVERI Board. Other board members elected were Jani Heimonen, Juha Jääskeläinen, Katja Pietiäinen, Janne Räihä, Petteri Räisänen, Jani Salo, Mikko Tanski, Heli Viinikainen and Anna Wolczkiewicz. At the organizational meeting of the Board, the Board elected Janne Räihä as Vice-Chairman, Juha Jääskeläinen as Secretary and Heli Viinikainen as Treasurer. Each member of the Board was also assigned a responsibility. Responsible for business contacts were Arttu Häyhä and Janne Räihä, for education policy (kopo) Anna Wolczkiewicz and later also Petteri Räisänen, for information Petteri Räisänen, for social policy (sopo) Katja Pietiäinen, for international affairs Jani Salo and for leisure affairs Jani Heimonen (entertainment & culture) and Mikko Tanski (sports). Jani Salo resigned from the board in September and was replaced by Sami Vuori.

The Board met 8 times during its term of office and held several evening meetings.

Membership activities

SERVERI's membership increased to 269. There were 76 new members. The increase in the number of new members was based on advance information among elected members and the limitation of events organised by SERVERI to members only.

Fundraising

SERVERI raised funds for its activities through the sale of jumpsuits, membership fees and the KYY Student Association grant. During the year, a new batch of jumpsuits had to be purchased, which are expected to last for a few years.

Council of Representatives

There were seven candidates from SERVERI in the election for the Student Union's Council of Representatives. Juho Romakkaniemi was elected as a representative. The remaining six candidates are deputy members of the House of Representatives. Otherwise, among the active activities of the members of the student union, the election of the representative body did not gather any enthusiasm, and SERVERI was at the bottom of the list of student unions in terms of voter turnout.

Business contact

SERVERI kept in touch with companies and gave them the opportunity to engage with the membership at the IT recruitment fair and at Buuttaus. The IT recruitment fair was organised together with the Teku Student Association, the City of Kuopio, the Department of Computer Science and Applied Mathematics of the University of Kuopio and TeKu (Tekniikka Kuopio) of P-SAMK.

Leisure activities

Whether it's sports or 'other activities' SERVERI is the most visible, loudest and most enthusiastic student organisation at the university. Event after event, SERVERI is present with at least a small strike team. As an honourable mention, SERVERI is also well-mannered and chaste - to an appropriate degree. As for parties, SERVERI keeps a record of events with ratings on its website.

Culture & entertainment

Traditional events

In the autumn, new students were welcomed at a welcome dinner in the Teknia sauna. As the number of students grows, Teknia's sauna facilities are getting cramped, but everyone who wanted to join in was able to.

In fact, the new students were welcomed into the SERVERI ranks at a baptismal ceremony, organised by tutors and 2nd year students. The Christmas party, with a Christmas party and carols, was held at the end of November. The christening was not until the middle of the year 2000.

Together with other science subject associations (Kulti & Hyeena), a joint party was organised for the third time. This time the event was called 'Third Degree Connection'.

SERVERI had a team participating in the 24TL event. Moral victory came again. SERVERI was also active as a promoter of KYY, for example visiting the Academic Wart in Helsinki in the spring to promote Academic Start -99.

New events

New events were added to SERVERI's events calendar. In spring, the first WappuDeBukkaus was held on Wappuaedt and in autumn the national academic IT student event Buuttaus. These events will be continued in the future.

WappuDeBukkaus

A large group of white-haired SERVERers gathered in the Technia field to celebrate the graduation ceremony with secret debugging rituals. The errors of the entire academic year were corrected, and the best of the year was awarded to those involved.

Buuttaus'99

The idea behind the changeover was to invite Finnish academic IT students to celebrate the beginning of the academic term. The event was also the start of the weekend's Academic Start event for IT people. For SERVERI, the event was restricted to members only. A good number of keen students from Turku, Tampere, Helsinki, Oulu and other places arrived at the Rauhalahti camping site in Kuopio. The programme included a student organisation competition, pole dancing and a Half Monty! performance. The music was provided by a professional DJ and the SERVERI-based band Sinus. The venue was the Rauhalahti campsite and the large outdoor tent was good, but a bit cool. Even that could have been remedied by improving the atmosphere (wearing warm clothes). The event attracted a good number of partners, and cooperation with businesses started better than expected. Feedback on the event was very positive, both from the students who attended and from the partners.

Sport

(Skiing) remained the most popular form of physical activity among SERVER participants. SERVERI members had access to two hockey games per week. The most striking sign of SERVERI's interest in hockey is the second place of the SERVERI Mighty Hackers in the OLL relaxed volleyball tournament. It should be mentioned that not all 'casual' teams are just relaxing. The Mighty Hackers also played a full season in the KYY league. The team is strongly heading for the playoffs.

The traditional cycling day had to be cancelled this year due to scheduling problems. There was considerable interest in the day, but unfortunately the opportunity to organise it did not materialise.

Other activities

SERVERI introduced itself to new and prospective students at high school info days, ABI Day and the University Open Day.

SERVERI was present at the ATK-YTP event at Lappeenranta (Lappeenranta). The event took SERVERI's official delegation across the eastern border to Vyborg. Everyone made it back to Finland. The event left a lasting impression, including the organisation of the next ATK-YTP in Kuopio in autumn 2000.

SERVERI won the interdisciplinary blood donation day competition organised at the university in the autumn, again demonstrating its activity. This victory was not the first for SERVERI, the previous one having come two years ago. What an anaemic...

SERVERI considered the possibility of setting up a business, but the workload compared to existing resources clearly dictated the situation. However, the idea remained alive for the future.

ROUTINE ACTIVITIES OF SERVERI

The regular general meeting of the association was held on 13 February 1996, at which SERVERI elected a president and a board of directors. At the meeting the budget for the 1996 operating period was approved.

The members of the board in 1996 were Topi Haapio (chairman), Päivi Ronkainen (chairman), Liisa Marjamäki (treasurer), Merja Ek (vice-chairman), Anne Koppinen (event manager) and Paavo Peltomaa (information manager). After Päivi Ronkainen, Liisa Marjamäki and Anne Koppinen left Kuopio for the autumn, Minna Kamppuri, Antti Karppinen and Antti Koponen were elected as alternate members of SERVERI at an extraordinary general meeting on 19 September 1996. Topi Haapio (chairman), Minna Kamppuri (chairman), Antti Koponen (treasurer), Paavo Peltomaa (vice-chairman), Merja Ek (event manager) and Antti Karppinen (information manager). The Board of the Association met seven times during its term.

During the past financial year, the Association's membership increased by 27 members, the largest increase since the year following the Association's foundation. The increase in membership can be explained not only by the large number of new students but also by the hard work of the information campaign. At the end of the period, the Association had 152 members.

VISITS AND EXCURSIONS

SERVERI took part in the ATK Association Days in Tampere in early November, which were attended by almost all the academic ATK student associations in Finland. SERVERI's participation was low, as the excursion was only supported by the participation fee.

At the end of the Board's term of office, on 11 February 1997, a recruitment excursion was organised by Nokia Telecommunications in Tampere, which was attended by about thirty server members.

LEISURE ACTIVITIES

In the 24 TL student event, SERVERI had several teams, one of which was supported to participate. The selection of the supported team was done by lottery.

SERVERI was represented by one team at the Academic Start.

In mid-May, after the gap year, a cycling day was organised, which unfortunately was attended by only a few SERVERI members. Only one server participated in the bike ride itself.

Right at the beginning of the autumn, a get-to-know-you sauna evening was organised at the Technia sauna for the first and second year students. A large number of people attended the sauna. A large number of people took part in the baptism of fire, which has also become a tradition.

The traditional Christmas party was attended by a record number of servers. The Christmas party was organised by the second year students.

In January, the first year class held its customary Easter party, this time indoors.

FUNDRAISING

The sale of SERVERI jumpsuit brands became a new fundraising activity for our association. During the past season, more jumpsuit stamps were purchased. The costs of the purchase were covered by the active sale of the jumpsuit stamps and even made a small profit.

The income from membership fees was another important source of fundraising. The income from membership fees almost reached a new record.

The Student Union of the University of Kuopio (KYY) also supported SERVERI.

SPORTS ACTIVITIES

In the autumn, the number of coaches was reduced from two to one. SERVERI has lost a few of its active players, so a new team is needed.

OTHER ACTIVITIES

SERVERI introduced itself to prospective students at the University Open Day in early February and at the ABI Day in November with its own stand in the lower lobby of Snellmania. SERVERI representatives even had the chance to give a couple of radio interviews.

SERVERI also introduced itself to new students of computer science at the end of August. The overall aim of the period was to increase awareness, which was achieved, for example, by revamping SERVERI's web site.

At the end of autumn, SERVERI conducted a survey of 2nd and 3rd year students on their preferences for seminar dates. On the basis of these requests, the dates of the seminars were changed in 1997. SERVERI engaged in an educational policy dialogue with, among others, the professor of the department on improving the quality of teaching and its systematic monitoring. Such quality development is becoming more widespread at the University of Kuopio.

SERVERI also surveyed students' job aspirations. Cooperation with the Career Services of the University of Kuopio will continue in 1997.

ACTION PLAN 2023

INTRODUCTION

In 2023, the services provided by the Server to its members will be maintained and developed. In order to improve services and maintain the Server's finances, efforts will be made to develop funding for activities, including by entering into cooperation agreements with companies. Events for members will be partly free of charge and fees for non-members will be kept to a minimum. In the coming year, projects from previous terms of office will be taken forward. This includes, among other things, the consolidation and expansion of business cooperation. The aim is to improve and consolidate cooperation between the Faculty of Science and Technology and the faculty as a whole through meetings between the faculty and the faculty.
Efforts will be made to improve the involvement of non-executive members in the organisation of events in order to keep the whole membership active.
