[Prorat] ProRat Newsletter Nov 2013

[Tatsiana Piliptsevich <Tatsiana.Piliptsevich AT prorat.tu-freiberg.de>]

Dear Recipients of the ProRat newsletter,

this is our regular newsletter. It again contains issues discussed in  
our last meeting and upcoming events like this year's Herbstfest and  
Mittagsrunde. More details can also be looked up online:  
prorat.tu-freiberg.de and facebook.com/Prorattubaf.

+++ Current issues discussed at last meeting +++
This year's Herbstfest is again a good opportunity to get in contact  
with other PhD candidates of our university. It will be on November  
5th, 5pm in the big conference room in Neue Mensa. We provide food,  
non-alcoholic drinks and a children's corner. Staff from GraFA and IUZ  
will be there as well.

We now write three new regulations on the basis of the  
ProRat-in-the-basic-regulations-decision: The basic regulations of the  
group of doctoral candidates ("Ordnung der Doktorandenschaft"), the  
rules of internal procedures of the ProRat ("Geschäftsordnung") and  
the electoral rules for the upcoming ProRat elections ("Wahlordnung").  
We just started to discuss these. If you are willing to take part in  
the process, please contact Christian Jäh:  
christian.jaeh AT prorat.tu-freiberg.de

The Landesvertretung Akademischer Mittelbau Sachsen (LAMS) organizes a  
panel discussion on the short term contracts ect. with the Saxon  
minister of science and arts Prof. Schorlemer on November 18th at the  
TU Dresden. Everybody interested is welcome! More details on the exact  
venue will be announced soon via uniinfo.

November's Mittagsrunde on "EU funding for PhD candidates" will take  
place on November 7th in Neue Mensa, conference room 1.46.

New ProRat election is coming in February. If you are interested in  
work of ProRat, want to become socially active by yourself, want to  
contribute for better changes, then we are searching for you and you  
should run for the next election!

All the best from ProRat,


Tatsiana
