| We reflect and look forward. We can imagine that the news about the budget cuts and all the events on campus this year have made a big impact. We would like to share where you can find more information about these subjects or just someone to talk to. Of course, we also give you tips for the Christmas period in Utrecht. The Faculty of Humanities wishes you happy holidays and a great start to 2025! |
