A LITTLE SECRET KaaPAOW! Tun & Tre is back again! On we go straight to the main subject. I have something on my heart, which I feel compelled to share with you. It is some thing that is important to reveal, both for the people that do not know it, and for the people that do know it, but do not think about it enough. It has been a secret for all too long, but it does not need to remain a secret any longer. Actually, the information is already out there, but obviously without any benefit. I have several times been told that the secret is wrong, and that I am mistaken. But I have good, verifiable and quality sources that support my case, if anyone should be in doubt. Yes, you have probably already guessed it. It is the use of the Norwegian word viss(if/certain in English). Or the lack of using viss in Bokmål (one of three written languages in Norway). You may think that it is strange to use time and space to write about a Bokmål-word, but one should not underestimate the power and the opportunities that lie in the language. Viss can actually be used instead of the Bokmål-word hvis(if/certain in English). In the current situation the use of viss in bokmål is only used in the determined form, meaning certain. Example: “ A certain man” (En viss mann). But you can, and should use the word when it means if and not certain as well. Example: “If everything goes alright” (Viss alt går bra) and “What if the King comes?” (Hva viss kongen kommer?). The opportunities are endless. If everyone mobilises, we may achieve this big dream. The dream to remove hvis from the Norwegian language. If that happens, a state coup is next. KaaPAOW!!

Rootsprout “But by God people, will nothing be left alone? Open the mountain, what kind of nonsense is that? The way to the mountain is open, as long as we are just as open!” -Zapffe (1934)
A modern life requires a lot, also when it comes to travelling. More and more people want to get out into the wilderness for silence, activity and identity. In fact, people come from all around the world to walk around here in Norway, something that obviously has impacts on owls, moss and other things one might stumble across out there. Outdoors used to be a quest to experience the nature in itself, but has now incresingly become a quest for sensations, and often what Instagram thinks about it. In the wake of this we see a need to accommodate hiking. And so we build stone stairs, clear tracks and put up signs. Because the nature is meant for everyone, in socially democratic Norway, and this way we assumingly come closer to nature. Or do we? Don’t misunderstand, outdoors experiences should be available for everyone, and to change that would be comparable to toppling the Dovrefjell. Still, it could be appropriate to spare a thought for this case. Annette Bischoff writes lividly about the subject, and states: “Today’s management is concerned with solving practical problems, but is unfortunately far away from being aware that they also lay the foundation for how the outdoors should be experienced and understood.”
One should of course recognize that it’s not as easy for everyone to walk, and that facilitation might motivate people to step out of the door. The thing is, or the problem if you will, is that to getting closer to nature, according to Bischoff, might not be the same as making it easier to get through it. Because what is nature, really? Maybe she is largely an idea we have. In the modern world we can say we are largely used to being spectators, but to be close to nature surely contains a participating aspect as well? What happens to our view of nature in the long run if we are used to always having a bench to sit on? Or stairs to walk on? Could it be that when the goal is closeness to nature, we achieve alienation and a distancing gap from Mother Earth herself? “The roots of the body reaches down in a myriad of organic life, where the consciousness cannot follow.” This can overwhelm anyone, but let us try to pay a little bit more attention. My brain isn’t just equipped with sight, but can also experience the feeling of wet socks, the smell of a dead deer, or a branch suddenly meeting something like the corner of my eye. I sense with my whole body, and when the world is marketed as something to look at, despite everything the body can feel, it might be time to put your finger into the dirt and exclaim: “This is my earth. And she is good enough as she is!” Text: Magnus Øydvin Translated By: Vegard Sjaastad Hansen 4.

PLUGGED WITH EAR PLUGS hrough in the kt ea br g Bi s: se po ex e Tr & Tun pt a secret! ke en be s ha al nd ca -s ug pl ear-
In these days, when winter is nearing its end (at least on the calendar), most of us can meet the spring with a relative calm, feeling that exams are still a long way off. At the same time, despite the student body’s outer calm, scary things have been going on behind the scenes at Samfunnet. Even if last year’s controversial (and thank god temporary) decision to request payment for hearing protection was shot down, the problems have not gone away. Unexplainable vanishings of ear plugs have placed the orderlies on high alert, and it is to the point where doubling down on security during future Samfunns shifts is in consideration. The missing ear plugs have had many committee chiefs scratching their heads – eventually their uncomfortably unprotected ears – but Tun & Tre can finally report about a breakthrough in the case!

Surveillance of a scarfed specter in Samfunnet’s hallways has turned a few heads, and it is rumored that this is the “Plugger” that has been spotted! A photographer kept his ears sharp and caught a picture of a figure flying past, but Facebook’s face recognition technology has so far not given any results. Still, there are many speculations around what the motive could be behind the ear-plug plugging, and our very own hearing protection specialist Martinitus Ølstøren lets us know that there are many different uses for ear plugs. “Besides preventing permanent damage to your hearing, ear plugs are always good to have on hand. They can plug up almost anything; from runny noses to poorly sound isolated doors and leaky roofs! Not least, they can be used as an alternative to chewing gum – I mean, aren’t there worse things to stuff yourself with?” Exactly what the purpose is when it comes to the ear plug thievery, no one really knows. Anonymous sources propose that it is all a conspiracy by the REALTEK-administration. Apparently, the faculty’s name is supposed to be an anagram for “raklete”, a word that means to “fly around”, which is seen as a perfect descriptor for this atrocity. A little bird also whispered to the editors that the consequences of a long-term lack of ear plugs will guaranteed result in a hearing loss epidemic. In that case, maybe the lecturer’s prayers will finally be answered; students will most likely start sitting closer to the front of the lecture hall to be able to be within earshot (so that their heads can instead be plugged with stuff they will eventually need by the springs end).

R A E D OUR
E F I W E S U O H SPILL: Wine and sewing are two of Mathilde’s interests. Unfortunately, they should not always be combined.
INTERIOR DESIGN: Mathilde has decorated her room with beautiful decorations.
Tun&Tre was recently invited by our new keykeeper Mathilde Wingeng, or the housewife as she prefers to call herself, to see how it is to literally live at Samfunnet. Quitting her job Last autumn Mathilde moved to Ås to study at Handelshøyskolen. During her first semester she worked so much in the knitting store in Ski that she missed out on the social life Ås has to offer. After a short while she realized that this could not continue, she could no longer be standing on the sidelines and look at all the fun things she was missing out on. She admits that it was after she quit her job and turned 20 that things really kicked off. Now she can brag about being a member of Koneklubben, she is in the Student Parliament and has recently gotten the job of keykeeper. Leading a double life After spending some time with Mathilde it becomes apparent that she leads a double life as a raver in the Bodega, but acts like an 80-year old the rest of the time. In all honesty she admits that closing down Samfunnet at eleven is way after her preferred bedtime. “Sometimes I go to bed and have set a an alarm so that I get can wake up and go the rounds.”
Sewing, knitting and wine
Despite all of her duties, the housewife still finds time for knitting and sewing which is her second favourite hobby, right under wine drinking. The good wine is placed on the top shelf. “If I can’t manage to get up there, I should not have anymore,” she laughs filling her wine glass. This combination of interests supports our theory of her double life. Shower trouble The housewife has gotten quite comfortable in her new digs, however there are still some things she has not quite gotten used to yet. Especially the “feature” of the shower being connected with the sink, and her not always remembering to switch back to “sink mode”. Several times she has gotten unintended showers while trying to wash her hands. Mathilde’s favourite places Before we leave, the housewife takes us to see some of her favourite rooms at Samfunnet. She shows us NMBU

Exclusive GREEN FINGERS: “I know a lot about the sex life of the spruce!” Øystein says confidently.
CAPTIVATED: “I find this one very nice; with his pants all the way up under his arms!” Øystein says and points at one of the rector portraits hanging in the
way spruce, as we mortals call it. So if you want a relationship with a guy who loudly and clearly proclaims his love for you on social media, Øystein is perhaps not the man for you. Then again, it seems that you would be spared a man with his nose stuck to his smartphone screen 24/7, instead dedicating his precious minutes with you, to you –which suits me perfectly!
Have you ever wondered what it is like to be the pro-rector’s girlfriend? Believe me, you are not the first. But the time of wondering is over, because Tun & Tre’s reporter has in fact spent a Sweet music. The day has come, and day as Øystein Johnsen’s sweetheart – and of course you get we meet in the boardroom at Cirkus, both of us carrying a guitar. Øystein is all the juicy details! You have probably seen him prancing around campus. The silver fox with the big smile and a twinkle in his eye. The one and only pro-rector for research, innovation and external collaboration at NMBU: Øystein Johnsen. There is no doubting his professional skills, but how is it actually to be the sweetheart of a man so high up in NMBU’s administration? Does everything revolve around work, or is there some time left for romance and cuddling? Is he a hard-core scientist to the core, or does he also sometimes use the artistic abilities of his right brain hemisphere? All this, and more, I will learn about by spending one day as Øystein Johnsen’s sweetheart! Environmentally conscious charmer Already as we are planning our date, I am charmed by our outgoing pro-rector. He suggests that we take the train to Oslo,
enjoy a good meal together and maybe go to the cinema, where I can choose the film. It is clear that Øystein knows what he wants, and is not the type to do things halfway. The small detail of suggesting public transport is more than enough to make this Ås student feel her knees weaken! Like any experienced dater in 2019, I do some digital detective work before our romantic rendezvous. But Øystein has left a very sparse footprint on the Internet, which, combined with the fact that he has quite many namesakes, results in a short Google expedition. My findings are limited to a private Facebook account, and a Twitter account characterised by work-related retweets and a couple of scientific articles about Picea abies – i.e. the Nor-
very fond of music, and thus our romantic date starts with an ever so little duet of one of his favourites: “Fields of Gold”. Why exactly that one? “Well, I have lived in Ås for quite a long time, and when the wind is blowing in the fields here it is just like waves on the ocean. It is so lovely.” He looks dreamily out of the window, and suddenly the scientist has disappeared and been replaced by a poetic artist. “Playing and singing like this, I find it very nice.” He sings in Son Blandakor (Son mixed choir) with his wife Unni, and they often hum a tune together. “I cannot imagine a life without singing in a choir – choir music is a lifestyle!” he exclaims with a hearty laughter. He has clearly practiced his guitar too, and I suspect that he wants to impress a bit. And he succeeds, because what is more sexy than acoustic guitar music in the boardroom at sundown?

FAVOURIT RESTURANT: Prima Fila by the City-Hall in Oslo is one of Øysteins favourites. A salmon-dish and white wine is enjoyed in an intimate and cosy atmosphere
But the idyll doesn’t last forever, as we have a fully packed program to follow! On our way to the train,we discuss his mystical nickname: Pjons. “There was a period when everything had to have a P in front of it, like psychology and psoriasis, and then my group of friends figured out that Pjons was a fun abbreviation for Pjohnsen.” He doesn’t use his nickname at work, so when he shares this with me he is showing me that he is not afraid to give of himself. The good conversation. Having arrived in the capital, Øystein takes me to one of his favourite restaurants, Prima Fila by the City Hall. He is in his element, and orders a delicious salmon dish for us, accompanied by white wine. The atmosphere in this elegant restaurant is intimate and pleasant, and I have no problem understanding why he and his
wife Unni like this place. The conversation flows easily, and we soon turn to topics he is passionate about - and there are many of them. If one is a curious scientist by nature, it is maybe not that strange to be fascinated by most things between heaven and earth. “I am maybe a bit geeky. My boys say; oh no, now daddy is gonna enrich us!” He chuckles warmly, and it is easy to imagine family conversations full of good conversations and great mood. He talks about everything from Italian wines to artificial intelligence and the sex life of spruces. Especially the last topic lights a spark in his eyes, not surprisingly, as he has spent most of his 30 years as an active scientist studying the sexual life of the spruce in changing climatic conditions. “I know a lot about the spruce’s sex life, and I have done my share of Sex
Ed!” Every topic is accompanied by gesticulation, digressions and a contagious joy for knowledge. One thing is for sure –as Øystein’s sweetheart, you will be good at quizzes, as you constantly learn something new! A small blunder. After a tasty coffee to finish the meal,we see that it is getting close to cinema time. Øystein is part of a film club called “Mørkets Gærninger” (Madmen of the Dark) – 8 gentlemen from their college days who go to the cinema together and discuss the films afterwards. This is clearly an important hobby to him, because he says that the best way to get to know him is in a film discussion. So he has ordered film tickets for us, and I look forward to seeing which new sides of him the film “Sonja” will reveal.

ØYSTEIN OPENS UP ABOUT LOVE
DRAMA: Øyvind had bought tickets for the wrong day! But the date still continued over a glass of dark beer.
Even though we are full and content after the delicious dinner, we give in to the temptation of the many goodies that the cinema kiosk can offer. But before we have decided which snacks we want, Øystein realises that he has made a fatal mistake. He has ordered tickets for the wrong day! This is new territory to the otherwise well organised pro-rector. “Oh no! Now Mari will laugh her head off!” Apparently, the rector often makes fun of Øystein for trying to be extra early and well prepared, so this miss is not likely to be forgotten! “She’s my life!” We give up on the film, and rather discuss love over a glass of dark beer. He quickly understood that he had hit the target when he met his dear Unni in 1974, and still remembers their first kiss. “What can I say? She’s my life” he says with a perfect British accent,
a trace from a longer research visit in Nottingham, and reminisces about the proposal at Peppes Pizza. Now they are married, have three sons and five grandchildren. When asked for any wisdom words about love, he says that one has to work for it, and that a common base of humor is one of the most important ingredients for a good life together. For instance, the couple saw the UKE revue together last autumn, and he tells me that they laughed at the same sketches.
“I am a nerd!” Time flies when you’re having fun, and back at Ås Station we meet Margit Fausko, former Editor in Chief of Tuntreet, who is very jealous of my great date. Pro-rector Øystein is clearly popular among the students, and he skitters of
The most inspiring film about love: “Love Actually”. I love the opening and the ending scene where people meet at the airport. Top three romantic songs: Fields of Gold, There is a Ship (Irish folk song), Yesterday What makes my knees weak: Propper love declarations from Unni. A perfect day with my partner: Dinner at a good restaurant. Good conversation. Surprising her with theatre tickets. Or a vacation in Paris. My worst trait as a partner: I can be quite opinionated. And I play loud music. My best trait as a partner: I see others and have good social skills. My tactic to charm the in-laws: Be myself. Dream partner:Unni. A person I never could have been together with: Donald Trump. Well, I don’t know him, but still.
joy when he gets to discuss soil with Margit. “I am a nerd after all!” He laughs at his own self-knowledge, and talks engagingly about promiscuous spruce trees while he accompanies me back home, before we say farewell by one of Ås’ snow-covered “fields of gold”... Recommended! Overall, this was one of the nicest dates I have ever been on, and I simply have to recommend a pro-rector date! As Øystein’s “sweetheart”, you are both seen and listened to, while at the same time you are “enriched” with everything from biological facts to Monty Python sketches, and there is a lot of laughter and song. But one thing is for sure: nobody else can claim the first place in his heart other than the one and only Unni!

WHY I COMPLAIN ABOUT
an A Getting an A on your exam is something most students dream about, but for Josefine the victory lap feels sour. While her classmates are happy about passing, she can’t seem to shake the feeling that her grade is unjust; her answer was not good enough for an A. Josefine complains about her grade, which befuddles her classmates. But, justice must hold out. An answer with little work behind it should not be rewarded with an A, even if it seems like a lucky mistake. Just as well, Josefine insists that this is not luck, far from it. –I do not want an undeserved A on my consciousness, she says exasperated. Why is it so bad that you got an undeservedly good grade? - I put little effort into my school work because it went so well. I develop really bad habits, says Josefine and fiddles with her phone. Her mobile is a big distraction, and she discloses that Instagram is the big, bad, wolf. She follows up with that it is difficult to change habits, even if the cause is known. The fear of getting the average grade is nonexistent, even when student loans from the Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund is brought up as a spur. –I

am passing, and that is what is most important. Otherwise I call my dad, who calls his lawyer, who calls the Norwegian State Educational Loan Fund and things work themselves out. Josefine is joking. –It isn’t a positive thing to have bad grades. If you do, you do not get to take the studies that you want to take or continue on and write a Masters. This by itself is a big inspiration to try to do well and get good grades. She adds that she complained first and foremost due to principle, and that you should not be rewarded when you do not put the work in for the courses you take. There is a chance that you will get a worse grade than you are expecting, or even deserve. She hesitates. –That is true, but the results are normally-distributed and I do not deserve an A. I would rather learn from my mistakes. Josefine understands the consequences of a complaint; that it could result in her getting a worse grade than expected and that this would contribute to a lower average. Also, the new grade could also be undeserved. Just as well, she stands by her complaint. –It is a matter of principle. [If I get a worse grade] I will cry and eat chocolate
ice cream and feel sorry for myself. It is important that I feel fine; it is important that I feel good about myself, because then I will try to do better, and the chocolate ice cream makes me feel better. Maybe I will comfort myself with some online shopping on Nelly as well. Isn’t that a shortterm solution? - Yes, but then I realize that I need to change my ways. She pauses, before continuing. –But, I end up not doing anything about it. A short laugh fills the room. Many would probably choose the same strategy: cry over a bad grade. Those same people would probably also have popped a bottle of bubbly (read: beer. Most students cannot afford champagne.) for a good grade, even if they did not deserve it, and let it slide until the next exam. I would probably have done the same; meaning I would have let it slide until the next exam.

Students open up and talk about January-block For the students taking a Januaryblock, the days could seem long and boring. Many students chose to stay at home in January, which left its mark on the student environment in Ås. Half-full student collectives and few events at Samfunnet, combined with several hours of lectures every day in the same subject, made the block feel slow for several of the students Tun&Tre met at Xamensfesten on the 28th of January. For Melissa, Haris and Marie, who all took the boring subject “Tax law for Economists”, January was a hard month. Tax-law-Melissa had heard from others that the January block was a nice way to earn 5 points. “’Happy New Year they said, and ‘the block is sooo chill’. I have never been so wrong” the student tells us. Little did she know that this month was going to last forever. “But those who wait for something good, don’t wait in vain!” she tells us, and toasts with her fellow students at Xamensfest. For Tax-law-Melissa there was definitely a light at the end of the tunnel to know that after the exam was handed in, there was beverages and good times waiting at Samfunnet. Tax-law-Haris and -Marie nod in agreement, and they underline that the good community spirit the students had in the otherwise dull block saved them from despair throughout the bleak January life. And so the three of them stood together in their sorrow David Eilertsen saved my Januaryfor this dull, but necessary subject block” Tax-law-Melissa tells us, and the three students toasted this on tax law. fantastic lecturer.

students who almost reached the ceiling in their joy at being done with the January-block. The amount of students wanting to go out this Tuesday was more than Samfunnet could hold, and the event was sold out just after 9:30 pm. More tickets were luckily posted eventually, but for those who couldn’t get in at Samfunnet, there was celebration of the end of the January block at Pentagon too.

High sticks on the ice This is how we stay in shape!
- I lost 1 kg through hockey, pilsner and rollies! states bygg-Gunder. Here are his training tips that let you burn calories while still keeping that sexy belly bulge! Listen to the experts It is practically a minefield of diet-and training advice for the ordinary Joe in these Stordal-times. That’s why Tun & Tre has sought out the sportiest gang south of Eika for tips and advice. Ola is a first rate bon vivant that likes hockey with a couple of brewskies: -We combine the two best things in the world, namely drinking and sports. This is a tried and true method that both Petter Northug and George Best have followed to success.

Hockey = bob
For the uneducated, unprofessional loop hockey might seem like a risk-filled sport. The merited gang in the hockey team Høggers United, who recently won Brennevinscuppen (The Liquor Cup), can assure that everyone can get in shape with hockey. –Hockey is just like bob; picture four fat guys on each team stamping around on the ice, Atle says with a cigarette in his mouth. This is something mostly everyone can recognize, and therefore the threshold might be lower for you and me to take a stick in our hands and smack some rock-hard pucks. In the
end, hockey is all about getting a fucking puck in the head, which is why you play without a helmet.
Petterøe’s expands the lungs
After an intense session with fencing sticks it is time for the most important part: restitution. –In Høggers United we live by R.A.S.S: Rollies, Relaxing, Lemon cake and Spirits. It is holy, says supply manager Gunder T. It isn’t a coincidence that the session on the ice ends with this, because hockey is also about smoking rollies. –It never burns as much in the lungs as it does after some delicious Petterøe’s Orginal 3. The
aerobe stamina increases significantly, Atle acknowledges while blue smoke floats around him.
The stick is fashionable
The best part about playing at Lillebrand is the strategic placement between Pentagon and Samfunnet. After a finished session you can walk straight into Bodegaen and throw back a few lukewarm brews of Pilsner. The fancy wear is already on, from famous fashion outlets like NLM Gjenbruk which is definitely in style right now. Forget everything you’ve heard about rubber boots and crampons; skates and stick is the new “in” at a damp Bodeganight!

FITNESS ON
ICE
Skating. Celebrities like Ariana Grande and Aksel Hennie swear by this elegant form of exercise, and Instagram is bombarded by hashtags like #dancingonice, #oniceiswhereibelong and #bitchimiceskating. Have you tried this new fitness trend? We have! It is not without reason figure skaters and hockey players are known as the most
beautiful winter athletes. Skating requires balance, courage and a dash of foolhardiness, and what could be more beautiful than that? But you can’t throw yourself out on the first and best ice rink, you have to choose your arena with care. Tun&Tre has therefore done the research for you, and here you can read about some of the ice rinks you can find here in Ås:
Ås videregående skole: A clear winner among the sport oriented, since it tempts with basketball hoops and a lot of space. The rink seems to be made for hockey skates and fast shades, and rumours circulate that Aksel Lund Svindal often plays ice basket here. Dice roll: 6
+
Lillebrand: This is without a doubt the biggest ice rink in Ås, and since it is lit up and close to the popular path from Pentagon to downtown Ås, you are almost guaranteed an audience –which is perfect for your inner Sonja Hennie! The ice is cold and slick, as it should be, and if it gets too cold, then you can always slip into Eika and get warmed up on the treadmill. Minus for the lack of seating. Dice roll: 5
Åsgård: An intimate ice rink for the more humble skater. Here you won’t have as much space to skate on, but in return the atmosphere is nice and playful here at the school playground. Just remember to hold off on the skating until after school, so you don’t occupy the rink during recess! Dice roll: 4
Dysterlia: The underdog of the Ås-rinks lies hidden among trees and houses on “the other side” of the railroad, and at first glance doesn’t look like much. But here intense hockey matches are played, illuminated by blinding floodlights. The frosty air rises to the skies, and the sound of metal on ice cuts through the cold – like a frosty version of “Fight Club”. Minus points for being far away. Dice roll: 4+

Layout-Anne Tove fought her way back after the hangover It’s 06.00 AM on a Thursday’s morning. My heart is pounding and my eyes will not close. My body is trembling, my throat is dry and the water that was carefully placed on the nightstand a few hours before is gone. I have become a victim of one of the most common illnesses in the world: the hangover. My body is paralyzed. I can neither get up nor go back to sleep. Lying half awake, looking at the phone and watching time pass must be one of the worst kinds of torture. Speaking of torture, the alarm sound comes in second on the list. The sharp sound cuts through everything in what used to be a quiet room and kills off the two last remaining brain cells left from yesterday’s shenanigans.
dry throat, fatigue, irritation over flatmates making an exceptional amount of noise in the morning, flashbacks to awkward events the night before and loud complaining. How strong these symptoms affect vary from person to person, but the two main factors are the amount and the type of alcohol consumed.

Maybe technology and we have. The symptoms are many: comfort are actually bad for us, just like in the movie WALL-E.
My body is paralyzed My focus, as to be expected, is not really present. Writing an article on having a hangover while actually having a hangover is an example of beautiful journalism. It feels like being an investigative journalist uncovering a major crime, except that the only crime is that I could not handle my alcohol. I would say I have given this article my all on a day like this.

@hardusettat opens up in exclusive interview
Opens up about difficult childhood Partner tells all Seeking apprentice It all started as a form of procrastination during exams last May, and since then @hardusettat has skyrocketed at NMBU. You hear the name being whispered on campus, but who is the creator of this profile that openly bullies people? Tuntreet met @hardusettat in an anonymous interview. Difficult childhood @hardusettat experienced a lot of bullying in middle school. “SheddyFreddy, Dumbo, Zorry, and batboy are only a few of the names I got called. People called you these names solely based on your appearance, and everyone had thousands. Maybe that’s why I post pictures of others: it’s so easy to make fun of someone based on how they look and what they do”. Despite being bullied themselves, @hardusettat also bullied other 22. 22 Utgave 01 Årgang 74
people. “It was just the way things were, everyone was a bully”. This difficult childhood has left its mark, but @hardusettat still feels that making the anonymous profile was a good idea. “It brings me happiness, and I hope other people follow their dreams just like I did”. Finds motivation in suffering “So many fun things happen in Ås that you don’t get to see”, @hardusettat explains. They admit their love for gossip as well as a
knack for bullying. “I see myself as Ås’s Jesus, Messiah, the whole package”. I point out that it seems a little contradictory, seeing as this is an Instagram profile, not a religion. @hardusettat agrees. They tell me about a wish to include everyone, not just create a platform for either those in a student society or those who are not, but a place where everyone can join together. The goal is peace in Ås through bullying, basically.

Scaring students “After I started posting pictures, I see less people on campus”, @hardusettat tells me. People are starting to look more alike, and everyone is keeping an eye out, scared to death of being bullied.

Star-crossed lovers I have met @hardusettat’s partner, who also wishes to stay anonymous.

It is important for the couple to set boundaries so the Wants anonymity bullying won’t ruin what they When I ask @hardusettat why have.

The big secret has forced the anonymous so I can do what I feel partner to live a secret life. “It’s not
always easy to keep this secret from those close to me, but I don’t have a choice. People do crazy things when they’re in love”. Big dreams @hardusettat has worked their way towards the top and wants to create something bigger to give people the chance to be a part of the bullying. The dream is to take over the world, and to win a Vixen-award for influencer of the year. I hear about the plans to expand and to create an anonymous network for bullies. “Someone has to replace me when I am done here at Ås, so if you are a bully: hit me up”. @hardusettat has big ambitions about the development of the profile and wants to be the one who publishes all the big scandals that happen on campus. So, if you want to be a part of the network you can PM @hardusettat on Instagram or Facebook. Text: Caroline Lensjø-Alvin Photo: Sunniva Buvarp Schmitz

Two NMBU students followed by a mob for a week
Last week two NMBU students were followed around by a mob of about 100 students from all over the world. The two victims were Lish and Pauline, who did not know what hit them. To deal with the minor inconvenience of walking around with 100 international students following them, they organised activities. It all began on Monday… On Monday afternoon when it had just gotten dark, the mob came to campus and surrounded the NMBU students Lish and Pauline. Luckily the two of them dealt with the mob accordingly by attempting a snowball fight. “We thought it was a good idea to attack, but after some measuring, we concluded that the snow did not have the right hardness for that. So, we ran to the Clock Building and locked 24.
ourselves into the SiT room. Or so we thought. Lish forgot to lock the door so the mob of international students could still get in. As soon as we saw that, we gave them coffee and snacks that we found in the building as a peace offering. Then we put on the Incredibles 2 via the beamer, on Netflix of course. Afterwards the mob just simultaneously got up and left. It was very nicely choreographed,” explained Pauline. When walking over campus… However, only two days after the first incident Lish and Pauline got followed again while walking on campus, this time all over Ås. Afterwards Pauline stated that “First, the fight or flight reflex kicked in, but luckily our fellow Norwegian students came to the
rescue and we decided to just go with it. We walked around campus while giving information to the mob of international students about the buildings to keep them from becoming angry. When we came to the Tuntreet we told the story about the tree, however this seemed to confuse them as they seemed to think that is was translatable to Tuna Tree. At that moment we were scared that they might attack so we quickly walked on.” After Lish and Pauline left the campus that same day, they were still being followed and decided to split up. Lish explained: “It worked, sort of? Now that we had two smaller groups of the mob, I went to a store where they happened to also sell international food, and I drank chocolate milk
there. Weirdly enough the mob started to mimic me, but I could see the humour in the situation. A fully packed shop with all kinds of international people drinking chocolate milk. They almost did not fit in the store. I felt like I maybe needed a check-up, so I went to the health station and talked to a practitioner there. It is weird to do that with 20 people around you, I can tell you that.” After about two hours of being followed around, most of the mob finally left to go to the supermarket. You could still see the relief on Lish’s face when she thought back to that event, and she stated: “Luckily for us, their hunger for food was bigger than their thirst for blood. Then I went to throw some weights around with only a few watching, which was already a lot better.” Later the leader of the mob stated that their excuse for following around the NMBU students that day was that they just got lost a lot and wanted to finally know where the supermarket was. Now that they know, all is well. To Samfunnet… On Wednesday Pauline and Lish thought they were safe at Samfunnet, but they were not. More and more internationals started sitting down in front them. When Pauline and Lish started talking basic Norwegian, all internationals started repeating after them. “Odd, just odd,” said one of them later. “The internationals were also very aware of the environment. When we asked them ‘Vil du ha en
pose?’, they all replied with ‘Nei!’. They did the same thing when we asked ‘Vil du ha kvitteringen?’ Remarkable, just remarkable.” And home… The stalking of the two students even went as far as following one of them back to their house. “They just walked in and started drinking beer. We thought we should do something, so we just put on a quiz about life in Ås to entertain them. We then went to a show where one of the NMBU choirs performed at Samfunnet,” one of the two students stated. To Oslo… “On Saturday we decided to go to Oslo, not knowing that when we would arrive at the station the mob was seemingly waiting for us again. Lish and I looked at each other and we both seemed to say to each other ‘Okay, here we go again’. We both stepped on the train and the mob followed, now the train was full,” Pauline said. Afterwards Lish and Pauline went to the Oslo Castle and hoped to enjoy the view, however the mob kept standing in the way. The two students decided to give up and ate some lunch. Then they went to a hill and rented sledges. “We hoped to sledge away from all our troubles, but they came after us,” one of them said. From the bottom of the hill they went all the way up again with the subway and sledged down again. When Lish and Pauline got cold, they went
into a bar and drank a beer, under supervision of the mob of course. And Eika… On Sunday the two NMBU students wanted a nice day at the Eika sports centre, but when they walked in and saw the mob again, they were not even surprised anymore. “We showed the mob around and then they went to play sports. I guess they needed to let off some steam,” Lish said. Pauline and Lish went off to drink some hot chocolate in peace. It all ended on Monday… “Monday was the last day we were followed but this time Lish and I formed an effective strategy to deal with them so that they would not come back: Graskurs del 0.5. We just took them to Samfunnet and let them talk to all the different student societies in Ås. Every single person of the mob started being very friendly and found their place. It was wonderful. Finally, I can sleep well again,” said Pauline afterwards with a sigh of relief at the memory. Luckily, thinking back Lish and Pauline stated that they had had a very nice week, and hoped to see the international students of the mob around. The leader of the mob, in turn, stated that the mob also had a very nice week and that “though it was cold, the friendliness of Pauline and Lish kept us warm while we followed them”.

Exciting merch from Næringslivsdagen 2019 We all saw it. Stands on stands filling up Aud. Max. Organizations, firms and of course their associated employees. Their charisma attracts you to go over and strike up a conversation. They start talking about what they work with and why precisely your education is highly relevant for them in the future. After the conversation, they hand you a flyer, a pen, or perhaps something completely different. Over the course of the fair, you can accumulate a jumble of pens, candy, and anything else found between heaven and hell. But which of these objects, that are outright thrust upon you, are actually worth taking home? Tun & Tre’s emissaries were on location at Næringlivsdagen 2019 (Career Day) and were able to catch quite a few odds and ends in their web. Laser Pointer with a Memory Stick from Wärtsila What was actually the idea behind this laser pointer? The button is so hard it feels you are going to break your thumb when trying to press it. Also, the design is clumsy and unergonomic. This hard button can be viewed as a grip strength exercise, but I think it would end quickly with tendonitis. The memory stick that comes with cannot be used with a laptop unless the laptop is lifted off the table, which means that it would never be used by lazy people like me.
Trash Can from Ragn Sells A cool little piece from the recycling company. Neat little miniature edition of a trash can. The design is realistic, and the message, “recycle for life” is made nice and clear. What its purpose is, is a harder question to answer. Maybe the whole idea with this trash can is that it should be sent straight back to the recycling center?
Webcam cover from Ciber Experis This is what surprised me the most; I had no idea that something like this even existed. A fantastic item to protect your personal life, if you spend a lot of time on “dirtier” parts of the internet. Or maybe you are just paranoid. Sadly, this lessens your chances of becoming a viral phenomenon on the “dark web”, and therefore any extra media attention. So, if that is your goal, I would not keep ahold of this item.
Stressball from Bearing Point A stressball is a good countermeasure for stress. Take out your frustration and irritation by squeezing this little green ball into pieces! The ball is nice and round, and is a good fit for several hand sizes. It can also help with handling day-to-day stress. If I were ever to recommend a stressball to anyone, it would have to be this one. Even though it releases quite a pungent smell when you squeeze it. This doesn’t matter however, because any stress this smell would cause you can be relieved by another firm squeeze of the ball.

TUNTREET Shopping bag from Xylem og Ragn Sells Shopping bags are a good solution to reduce the use of plastic bags. Here, we tested two shopping bags, and they were in no way similar. Shopping bag from Xylem is small, and simple to carry with you. The design and the long handholds make this into the shopping bag you want to have. Sadly, there is not enough space for everything you need for a nice cozy Friday night, so you end up asking for a plastic bag at the cashier after a big shopping trip anyway. Ragn Sells provides a good shopping bag. This bag is big and can carry plenty of goods. It is not as fashionable as the Xylem shopping bag, but there is definitely more space. Penner A good pen is always nice to have.We found a small selection of pens, a surprisingly small amount for a convention of this sort. Ciber Experis This pen has a sexy design and curves that would make Kim Kardashian envyous. Unforunately it is not very good to write with as it lacks a rubberized grip.
Academic Works This thing was so bad it was thrown in the bin even before the photo was taken. During the test the pen bent, ruining the whole experience. Feels like a burden in your hands.
Tekna This pen has nothing special to offer. The design is boring and plain, but the distintive blue colour is a plus. This too is not particularly good to write with. Wärtsilä This pen made a really bad first impression. It took over a minute to get any ink out of it, however when it started working it worked like a dream. The bumpy design makes it nice to hold, and with a pretty design it scores high in all categories. Banantwist Ugh and wow for what a fantastic mess this is! The banana flavour spreads across the tongue like an infernal flame, while the sweet chocolate mixes in as an afterthought and forms a thick coating of banana chocolate all over your mouth. Your breathing becomes so intense that it is impossible to speak until you get access to a toothbrush. What an incredibly emotional rollercoaster ride of a chocolate candy! This thing cannot be described with a dice roll. Text: Ole-Johan Næss Holm Photo: Sunniva Buvarp Schmitz Translated By: Hanna Sahlström
Tun & Tre’s hunt for good merch during Næringslivsdagen was a success. we found some things that were good and some that were bad, and we were surprised by the diversity of different items. If you are planning to go to Næringslivsdagen at a later time, We have some recomendations for what stands you should visit and what things you should take with you. The pen from Wärtsilä was the biggest surprise, but what I will get the most use out of is probably the Cibers Webcam cover. If you want a culinary experience unlike anything else I would look for a stand with banantwist! Utgave 01 Årgang 74 2929.

Become the talk of the town:
&
Meatcake!
Special!
Whenever my friends and I get together for a cake party, they always outdo me. However, this meat cake finally made me the talk of the town! The cake disappeared in a matter of minutes, and everyone wanted the recipe. So, if you are tired of being boring, you should try something new! Cake: Mix the minced beef, salt, pepper, eggs, and panko in a bowl. Knead until it gets sticky. Divide it into 4 equal parts, and form round, flat cakes. Cook in a frying pan until they are cooked through. Frosting: Boil potatoes until they are soft or falling apart. Drain the potatoes, and add butter, milk, salt, and pepper. Mix with a hand blender until the frosting is smooth. Icing: Melt butter in a pot and stir in the flour. Cook until it has a nutty brown color. Add the stock a little at a time and stir well. Add salt and pepper to taste, and a few drops of food coloring until you reach the desired color. Make sure the icing is not too runny. Assemble the cake: Layer the cakes and the frosting. Make sure to get an even layer of frosting between each cake. Cover the whole cake with frosting, and smooth it out so you get an even surface. Decorate with icing as you like, or you can find inspiration in our photos.

Vazelina After the huge success at UKA in Ås 2016,Vazelina Bilopphøggers was yet again back at Studentsamfunnet in Ås. On this occasion, Tuntreet had the pleasure of interviewing the favourite band of the entire Agronomy metropole, and we additionally brought a homemade surfboard with red stripes that we planned on giving to the guys. It is unclear if it was meant as a joke or not when they said it would be exhibited at the Vazelina museum.
Eldar:A buddy from Skarnes fell into such despair when he found out about it that he started crying. What do you have on your rider? We don’t get it too often, but a bottle of champagne, a package of Durex, Dentafix and denture adhesive, alternatively handball adhesive.

We usually get the whole range. Lately the wind has been blowing our way. Among other things, we recently played at Øyafestivalen. Something we were particularly happy about the last time we were here were the sound people. We often experience some problems, and one of the worst things is when there is trouble with the sound. Once we were in Melhus there was even a microphone that had to be soldered before we could play. There were no problems the last time we were in Ås.
We have been asked several times, but we have said no. It’s not really our thing. It is not necessary for us to do that kind of stuff. Maybe we could have written a song for those completing adult education instead.

My dad is a funny guy, I think I take after him.
TUNTREET Hans Christian, I can guarantee that you have seen him. Perhaps from the stage during Graskurs part 2, or as Santa Claus during the UKErevy in 2016. Perhaps you met him at Bohemen, or Epleskrotten. Or was it during the Halloween party at Verket? Maybe it was outside your own door, when you once again locked yourself out in nothing but a towel? It is hard to say. - I’m everywhere, except for the reading rooms and Eika, laughs Hans Christian. And he is probably right about that. Funny Guy & Master of Charm I meet Hans Christian at Samfunnet, his former home. He is always impeccably dressed in a glamorous and fashionable coat. Hans Christian, also known as HC, often glitters on stage, but today only glitters for me. Hans Christian grew up on the family’s farm property in Hinna. In his childhood, he was as musical as he is today. He played piano and joined the band at a young age. At secondary school, he discovered his love for singing and theatre. – My dad is a funny guy, I think I take after him, says Hans Christian, with a playful smile. He talks about the time at Rogaland Youth Theatre, and when I learn that the master of charm won the role of Romeo in Romeo & Julie, I must admit that my heart immediately started to flutter a little faster. Hans Christian was also in the spotlight in high school. The funny guy was Russepresident, and can confirm that, yes, the best knot is having sex with the russepresident. Fashionably late After what he describes as an eventful Russetid, Hans Christian packed his bags and moved to Drøbak. Hans Christian described this as terribly boring, since he either had to take the bus home too early or too late. - It was usually too late, a mischievous Hans Christian adds, and we both chuckle. After half a year in Drøbak, Hans Christian moved to Ås, and he has not looked back since. He immediately joined NGA, a bit incidentally. - I didn’t intend to join the choir, but my friend Ingvild persuaded me to audition. But I arrived late and interrupted the whole song exercise! I made the best of it, bowed and just smiled at the applause. Fortunately, it
worked itself out, and Hans Christian was named “Entrance of the Year,” and proudly still wears the button he was awarded. - It was during the cabaret that I got to know the choir, and found my best friends, a nostalgic Hans Christian tells me. Since then he has also taken on the role of leader, cabaret manager, conductor, and not least, centerfold for the choir’s internal magazine. Hans Christian also talks about trips with the other choir members to exotic places such as Tromsø, Trondheim and Krakow. After a total of five years he has not grown tired of it, and the love he has for the choir shines through him. UKE actor and Å(s) celebrity The cabaret success only increased Hans Christian’s engagement, and he became UKEskuespiller in 2016, inspired by former fellow choir members who had taken the role before. - It felt right, confirms Hans Christian. But he also has a humble side. - It is not so important that the students remember me on stage, my tones or roles. It is not so important that they remember the UKErevy, or UKA at all. But if it can help someone to look back on the semester as a good study time, then I have done my job. Hans Christian is still the centerpiece of any congregation, whether it is on the stage as an UKEactor, singer, conference host, or if it just is any other day. The student rarely becomes nervous or shy and is very inclusive towards everyone. He was named this-year’s-buddy of the ILP in 2014, along with Malene Øien. - It was fun! I like to take care of new students, I like the energy. And it is always fun to contribute. Flashing UKA medals from “14,” 16 and “18 indicate this.
I never drink cava!, Hans Christian laughs
I’ve always been extra!

CAME TOO LATE: Interrupted the enitre choir rehearsal
Opens up about being keykeeper Hans Christian has still got the newbiespark. He now sings in the Student Band as well as NGA and just finished as keykeeper. It was during Christmas 2017 that he decided to take part in new positions. - I decided to take an extra year, and it was a head on experience! As a keykeeper, Hans Christian knows Studentsamfunnet better than most, and he happily shows me the worst places at Samfunnet one can have sex and points out that the Ns in “Johannes” are upside down! Not only does the guy have a twinkle in his eye, he also has an eye for detail. Hans Christian describes the keykeeper dorms as “shit,” and “more shit.” He was lucky and got the “best” one for a whole year. Hans Christian then took the matter in his own hands and renovated the whole room. - I tore, fixed and painted, and made it my own! Hans Christian admits that the year as a keykeeper was hectic at times, but the busy days were never a big problem, compared to the busy nights. - Visitors must go through the office entrance, and that basically means body search, he laughs. No, sneaking someone into the keykeeper dorm is not easy, but a mischievous Hans Christian admits he has tried. The dorm has a window in addition to doors!
There are so many who will get to all of you! Hans Christian is currently single and thrives with it. - I love flirting, he says with a glint in his eye. - And I am good at it too. He does not have anyone appointed at the moment
but has some thoughts about his future boyfriend. - My partner has probably studied and been part of the choir environment. I’ve been hunting for a man on weekends but haven’t found one yet. I guess he’s younger and hasn’t started yet. Hans Christian was not open about sex and sexuality before russetiden but is open about it now in Ås. - I have never run into any resistance towards my sexual orientation here. But being gay has been difficult. My closest friends here at Ås find it strange to imagine that there was a time I didn’t love myself, but that is the truth. I was an easy target for bullies and I definitely do not miss puberty. But I left that baggage behind in Stavanger when I moved to Ås. If anyone reads this interview and can relate, I just want to tell you, it gets better. Don’t hold yourself back, there are so many who want to get to know all of you. And even if you feel like you are too old to be struggling with sexuality, it is perfectly OK. I haven’t figured it out! Don’t be afraid to be yourself. Be around people who like you for who you are, and don’t take care of or care about those who think you’re too much. Handy & Romantic When Hans Christian is not busy with voluntary engagement or school, he likes to work on cars. - I have had five cars since I started studying at Ås! He is currently driving an Audi, but it was probably the former motorhome that has left the biggest mark on Ås. The caravan was rescued from a scrapyard in Rogaland, and he spent the following fall and Christmas on fixing it up. Around Easter it was finally ready and relocated Sing le Char Han mer d Keys y
34 Issue 01 Year 74
to Ås, and he spent the summer on a grand European tour. A secretive Hans Christian saves on the details of what has happened in the motorhome but admits that it has seen some romantic moments. - Yes, I am a romantic. Confirming the rumors: - It is a onesided love Now Hans Christian does not live at Samfunnet, in a motorhome nor in Verket, where he arranged his grand Halloween parties, but at Bohemen. - Yes, I’m a closeted lærke! He finally admits what we already know and adds that he has several good friends in Lærken and knows all of the songs. But he also hints at trouble in paradise. – The love feels a little one-sided at times. But I know they are good as gold in the core. As a resident of Bohemen, Hans Christian gets intel on everything that happens, including exercises. - I was voice training with the boys at home once. That was… interesting. I’m glad I sing in NGA. When I ask if he ever feels exhausted, the answer comes quickly. - Exhausted? Of course! I attend a very busy study course! The focus immediately changes from voluntary engagement to studies, but the notion that being a contributor can be tiring hasn’t crossed his mind. And in many ways, it sums up Hans Christian well, he likes to give, and gladly offers himself. And not least, he burns for everything he does and always does it with a smile on his mouth.

TUNTREET
The one and only: The queen. When someone is as extraordinary as you, there is always hustle and bustle. You are not difficult to ask when it comes to parties and you always have a bottle of something good (read; champagne) up your sleeve. Although money is your top priority, it is very nice to be a good second place. You have always valued your friends, literally (thanks for paying me so much). I’m looking forward to touring the world on your yacht, with a champagne glass in my hand, of course. We may be rivals on a choir basis, but fortunately we can set this aside when we go out. Thanks for the choir evenings, thank you for Tromsø, thank you for being my roommate, and thank you for all the good times we have had together. I’m looking forward to getting old with you, hope you stay just as extra. Loads of love, and cheeeeeeers from Caroline HC is deeply missed after moving out of Samfunnet. We were fortunate to have this dynamite package of a man bless us with his presence for nine months. HC is actually on his 6th year because he is not able to say no to everything Ås has to offer. He has achieved and done an incredible amount at Ås and likes to talk about it. If you haven’t heard him bragging about being an actor during UKA16 then we do not believe that you have actually talked to him. He is a multitalent of great extent and is far too skilled in too much. HC is a warm and caring person who really knows how to show interest in those around him. If you need someone to call or advice in the middle of the night, the door is always open. He spreads his mood around him and can light up every occasion <3 It is never quiet with HC is around. He is one of the most open people we know. For example, I (Jardar) have often been invited in for a blowjob and a cup of coffee in the morning. Nice, but a little too much. HC did much more than what was expected of him in the positions he has had. When he started as keykeeper, he redid his entire keykeeperroom. In addition, he has voluntarily taken on many extra tasks, such as contributing to the renovation of the office wing, decoration of Samfunnet for Christmas, and lots of design tasks. We deeply appreciate all of the effort and love HC has given us and Samfunnet. Thank you <3 Hugz and love from your two x-roommates at Samfunnet, Ane and Jardar.
Hans Christian is the type of person it is hard to be bored around. He lives for good stories, and it is an honor to be a part of those. He is one of the great driving forces in the choir and provides that little (read; not always so little) bit of extra. Rather than risking something being done halfway, he often does it himself. HC is a national class designer, and if there ever is a need for a button or logo or bar menu then he might find himself clearing his calendar to deliver far better than necessary, literally overnight. An article about HC is not complete without mentioning what happens if he envisions arranging a party. At a Halloween party he arranged, half of Ås was invited. Have we mentioned that we like him? Because we do, for the most part. Stian og Ørjan
It all started in a seemingly grey autumn day in the Lord’s year 2015, when a small bunch of people met up in Aud.Max. with a tiny hope of charming themselves into a place of the exclusive UKE actors’ ranks. Amongst these nervous souls was also a unique specimen of a person, a kind of “limited edition”. A coloured blob that does not disappear with regular bleach if you were so (un) lucky to leave it in your white laundry. HC speeds into student life in a black sedan and leaves behind a blanket of people who, too bad for them, will never have the same view on life again, because now they have met the Creator - and he drives an Audi. It turns out that this is not far from the truth. To find a person with equal life experience and ability to share, you would have to look for a long while. Both in the bible and other texts you have lying around for comfort and wisdom. HC shaped us, just as a child plays with plastilin during SFO. There is no better comfort than what you can get from HC, nor a better laugh. HC is the actor family’s grand aunt, minus the strong odour of cat, camphor and Earl Grey tea. Thank you for sharing everything with us, both the good and the absurd, and for letting us be a part of your extended family! For that we are forever grateful. Kisses and smackers – you little sweetie-pie Love from your extended actor family

Life is smiling on Chess-Fano
Chess is king! Finally! The chance has come for all chess aspirants at the Agronomy metropole! Every Tuesday from 18-20, you can play chess at Samfunnet together with both friends and strangers. Tuntreet has had an exclusive interview with the chess engine behind it all, Fano Alenxander Heintz Grydeland. When did your interest in chess start? When did your interest in chess start? -I have had an interest for chess since primary school, but this interest reached its peak during the chess world championships in 36. 36 Utgave 01 Ă&#x2026;rgang 74
2014, when I was so bored by certain classes that I would rather watch the world championship games. I even remember ending an oral presentation by analyzing one of the games that had played out that day. Although this did not boost my grades, it did boost my mood. What is your dream for NMBU-sjakkforening (NMBUchess club)? -The dream is probably to give people who have never played chess before the chance to try it out for free. All I dream about is to see new faces at each meeting, and I hope that I can teach them
a thing or two about chess. Which chess piece do you like the most? -I like the opponentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pieces a lot, that is why I always try to capture them. Other than that I feel the knight is very unique compared to all the other pieces, because it breaks all the rules and kind of just does what it wants to do. Dream opponent? -I would say Magnus Carlsen, but he would just completely crush me. I think rather it would be more fun to face Donald Trump in a match.
TUNTREET
A beaut iful game
Chess role model, Magnus Carlsen of course, but anyone else? -Mikhail Tal was a player that would play insanely fun matches. I do not have the same style at all, but I wish that I could be as creative as him. Garry Kasparov is another player I have a lot of respect for. Who goes to the NMBUsjakkforening’s game nights? -Right now, I am the only person I know who goes every single night, but there is a good amount of people. If a lot more end up coming, we would actually need to get ahold of a bigger room.
Are there any places that you know about with good chessvibes? -“The Good Knight” is a chess pub in Oslo that I have visited quite a few times. Nothing is more chill than bringing a friend down there and playing a few chill matches as you are chatting on about life. Has the logo finally been decided? -Nothing is completely set in stone, but let’s just say that I really like the picture of the king and the queen. The name of the club might also change sometime in the future.
What is the best thing about chess? -I feel that it is fun to play a game that has existed for more than 1000 years, and is still a living game. Every match you play is almost guaranteed to be different from the previous one. It is also a fact that basically everyone knows what chess is, and you can play a game with people who do not even speak the same language as you. Chess is, all in all, a beautiful game.

TUNTREET SHOCKED: The public was clearly shocked by IVAR’s show.
Shocking on stage GOOSEBUMPS: Pikekoret IVAR sang better than average.
Pikekoret IVAR are not scared of their reputation
On the 15th of February, Samfunnet hosted NMBU’s Intense, Voluminøse, Amorøse Røyer Revue “Pikekoret IVAR klikker” (IVAR Goes Crazy). The title of the show is no lie, and it is pretty safe to conclude that the sweet, innocent choir really had gone crazy this time.
Like most revues, there were several types of performances and humor, and I choose to bring up the old phrase smorgasbord, as there was something there for everyone, but everything is not for everybody. As expected, most of the songs were above average and well carried out, but most other things were a misfire in my opinion. There was everything in the performance from more environmentally friendly catcalling names like lesbo tractor (I can among others mention electric car bimbo and cross-country bitch), to adventures about the Ivarinnadame and Rævne-man who had a daughter that went to study at NMBU. There a wildlife documentary in Utgave 01 Årgang 74 38 was full David Attenborough style about the natural behaviors of males in the
Bodega. In addition, we also got to learn just how disgusting and disease-ridden the gross Rævne bathing stump actually is, and the sad truth of vacationing Norwegians’ English skills. A memo for everyone; do not tell a female street musician that “that was really bra, like shitbra”, or let a new mother know that “we have seks kids” at home.
Misunderstand me correctly – I generally do not have a dirty enough sense of humor to get full enjoyment out of a revue. I will be the first to say it. Although, a couple of a skits made me wonder whether or not I was the one that had gone crazy, as I did not find a scrap of humor in them. When two green clothed Ivarinna-dames came crawling out on stage and a narrating voice announced “caterpillar”, I should probably have expected to see boobs (pupae and boobs are the same word in Norwegian) in the near future, but alas, I did not. Reflecting on this now, I like to think of the butterflies flying off the stage as a symbol for my naïve innocence leaving me, and that by this point, I should be expecting such things
from a student revue.
The highpoint of the show was, for me, the rap. This performance showed us just how fun and immoral IVAR really is. Instead of the heavenly tones that are usually served up to us, we instead get something that was more reminiscent of a dying whale. Maybe this is an unusual side of the choir, but I (who cannot sing) felt right at home. The Take On Me parody about how fantastic crocs are also deserves a mention, in addition to the heart wrenching song of the Ivarinna-dame that had been a good girl when it came to polishing the silverware, trimming the hedges and knitting, but had not studied for her exams so she had to do retakes. Again. If IVAR’s goal was to destroy their stereotype about being sweet house moms that just chase after Rævne, I can conclude that they succeeded, even if it wasn’t exactly to my own personal taste.

Oh, Maria, Maria. There is no doubt about what you have dressed up as. You are shining from top to bottom. Yellow is mellow and so is this outfit. It is not recommended to stare directly at the sun but this evening it was very hard to resist. Creative and charming and also very popular in the middle of the dark winter. Full score!
Stian… did you come here directly from a lecture? Maybe you fell asleep on the couch and had to run to make it to the party? No matter what the reason was, this was boring. That being said, I can picture you wearing these clothes on a holiday in Spain. Your gaze looks at me like it is longing to move those hips to some salsa rhythms or jump on a surf board. Maybe both at the same time? Nonetheless, neither intense gaze nor ordinary clothes will score any points this evening.
Olala, what can I say Victor? You are what you eat they say, and this evening I think everyone wanted a piece of you. You walked around as a delicacy and tempted men and women alike. The fantastic chef ’s hat was a nice touch. The only thing missing was a pair of matching taco socks and pants matching the sweater.

You should drink this at the next party!
Here in Ås, there is no doubt that there is a big interest for beer. Beer is the preferred thirst quencher for most students under celebratory circumstances, and the interest does not stop there. Several fraternities and sororities have their own preferred beer brand, we have our own beer brewing society, competitions in brewing beer and even a beer brewing course. But what about the wine. Where is the interest for that? Do you only drink wine if you do not like beer or cider? I feel that wine should get more attention than it does here in Ås, so that more open their eyes to both more and better wine. Therefore, I will begin by writing a wine column here in Tuntreet, with recommendations for what wine is appropriate for which palette, and which situation. I will include wines for every situation, from parties to studying for exams. Of course, I will obviously start with what works when alcohol is most desirably consumed in large quantities: at a party.
A wine that can be consumed at a party should not be too strong, have a slight sweetness, but not be too sweet in the risk that you become nauseous after just a few glasses. You should be able to drink at least an entire bottle in a short span of time with little to no problem. And most importantly: it cannot be too expensive. Going out is expensive enough without having to pay 300 kroners for a bottle of wine. Below is a list of some wine recommendations for the party scene, depending on what you prefer.
The Sweet Tooth – Steinberg Riesling, 159,90 kroner This is a wine with a lot of sweetness, but is well balanced with acidity so that it is easy to drink. The taste is more tropical (think tropic juice and melon) than the more traditional sweet rieslings that you often see at parties. This is not just a good party wine, but even a very well made wine with a lot of flavor and a nice long aftertaste.

Wine conn oisseur: Eli as Photo: Pri vat Translated By: Hanna Sahlström
The Red Wine Lover – Marco Pontarelli Barbera, 150,00 kronors If you decide to go for a red wine at a party, most of us do need to be a little bit careful. You can quickly end up with a headache and a hangover that will last well into Monday. Therefore, I am going for a wine that is made from the grape barbera. This is the red wine’s answer to riesling. It has a natural sweetness together with fewer tannins and other qualities like sulphur and histamines that are the culprits behind why many of us feel especially bad after reaching for the red.
The Acidity Freak – Allram Alte Reben Grüner veltliner, 149,90 kronors A wine for those that like dryer wines. This is a half dry wine, which means that it has just a hint of sweetness. Often sweetness comes from the grape, and not added sugar. Gruner veltliner is a very good party wine as it is much rounder in flavor than other dry wines. This, together with a little sweetness makes it dangerously easy to drink, especially with a 13% alcohol content.
Crash-co
urse in N
Can you learn how to say “hei”, “hva heter du?” and “jeg heter...” in one night? Probably not, but during the language café on the 30th of January, an attempt was made. In January, new international students have moved into Pentagon, and as a part of their fadderuke there was a language café at Caféklubben. Indoctrinating Norwegian Wednesday, 30th of January ten or more students gathered from all over the world in front of the screen, which every week is used for karaoke. Rows upon rows of chairs and sofas of differing heights and softness were eventually filled. English, French, German and other languages buzzed through the air, but was quickly replaced with a loud “HEI”. Pauline Rutten, International Officer, was holding the course. Norwegian is not her first language, but that did not stop her. The same was after all true for most of the participants. The presentation was meant to go over four days but going through the whole curriculum in a few hours was not anything new. With Powerpoint and some help from the room it turned into a proper
orwegian
crash-course. Those who have had a foreign language class in secondary school would have felt right at home. The teacher says something in the language you are learning, and the class repeats loudly, approximately the same thing back. No one stood out in particular, but all together it sounded all right. The participation among the exchange students was very good, and “jeg heter...” was a real chaos of noises. For the most part there was agreement on how things should be pronounced. The problem came after eighteen and nineteen. Was it “tjue” or “tyve”? After some discussion people agreed to disagree, and that it basically was the same thing. For simplicity it settled on “tyve”. Those skj-, tj-, sj-sounds can be quite tricky. A win for the environment One basic human need is food, and a part of the course was playing pretend-shop, just like in kindergarten. Everything from names of merchandize to the difference between left and right was reviewed. In an attempt to stop unnecessary use of plastic, everyone was thoroughly taught to answer “NEI” when asked if they wanted a “pose” in the cash register. There was also spread some false information on how low prices were.
To say a banana only costs 3 kroners isn’t quite right. Not even the discount Kiwi has on fruit and vegetables makes that true. So for anyone wondering about the price of a banana, don’t ask anyone from the course! Norwegian rudeness A question from the audience put Norwegian in a bad light. The question was if there was a Norwegian word for “please”. It came as a big surprise when the answer was no. Norwegians rarely wastes time on pleasantries, and if there once was such a word it is now gone. But still, at meal times we are polite! To say “takk for maten” was new to many, but it showed that we are at least a bit polite. The language café was a good initiative for the new exchange students, and it was well executed. Hopefully everyone learned something new, without losing hope from the hopeless Norwegian language. A plea to all Norwegian speaking people is to do some of the first things you learn in life – speak Norwegian! Assist in remembering to say no to plastic bags, and find out what the real price of a banana is. Tekst: Guro Størdal Illustrasjon: Ina Kristine Translated By: Vegard Sjaastad

Why Walk in a Parade on International Women’s Day? Do you remember what it was like when women were not allowed to vote? Did not have the right to study or join the work force? Were not allowed to run for positions and have a say in politics? Were not allowed to have control over their own money? No? Luckily, we don’t either. But it is important to be aware of the fact that equality in Norway has no always been what it is today. . Some people have already fought many of the battles for us, and in many places of the world activists are still fighting with their life on the line for equality and justice.
Translated By: Hanna Sahlström
Even here at home, we have not reached the finish line. Recent government debates have shown that the female body can still be used as a bargaining chip to get into a position of power. It is terrifying that politicians work towards limiting a woman’s right to decide over her own uterus. The wage gap between men and women is unyielding. For example, women on average earn almost 20% less than men in academic careers. The body image-pressures you are exposed to every day are enormous, and what really happened after the #MeToo campaign? Head Parole “Feminism is limitless” We want to encourage all Ås students to walk in this year’s parade on the 8th of March!
It does not matter whether it is because you care about women’s rights on an international scale, her right to decide over her own body, her right to not be scared of being sexually harassed, or because our society needs to stop with stereotyping gender norms. It does not matter because FEMINISIM IS LIMITLESS! See you there! Time and place: Ås Kulturhus, 08.03, 17:00 Solidaric greeting, Ås Feministiske Studenter

Skeptic week in Ås Is it possible to unite God and science? Do absolute truths exist? Is there such a thing as a good God? Has God reached his expiration date? Many struggle to understand how you can believe in God or gods in a time like ours. A time where we have reason and science, we can communicate and share knowledge in the blink of an eye, and find the answer to any question we desire through just a few quick taps on a keyboard. This is understandable. We are all shaped by the assumptions in the culture that we have grown up in. The assumptions we live with today are tedious reflections of leading thinkers from hundreds and thousands of years ago, and then taught and disseminated into pop culture, school and families. Some became so obvious and engrained that we have a hard time imagining what the alternative would be, even if we have never heard of where these assumptions originally

came from. Growing up in Norway in 2019 forms our backdrop in a completely different way than those of us born in another place or time. But most of us do not have time to explore and question all of our assumptions before the sun sets, and maybe do not even discover them. But some questions are too important not to ask. Then we would be risking a life where we miss out on a larger narrative. For example, what if I told you that no serious historian doubts that Jesus was a historical figure, or that there has been consensus among science historians for the past 50 years that the alleged historical conflict between the church and science, is no more real than a bedtime story? What if I challenged you by repeating Nitzsches words that if God does not exist, then we have no reason to think that there can be a reasonable reference
standard for truth, goodness, beauty and purpose beyond what we find in our own imagination? What if I came with the potentially even more radical suggestion that the meaning of our lives can be best expressed as the adherence of a person who was also the incarnate God in flesh and blood – the very symbol of how God has poured out his infinite reason, kindness and beauty in his creation. On the 4-7th of March, Skepsisuka (Sceptic Week) is hosted by Laget in Ås. We wish to take some time to explore some of the bigger questions humans have asked. We feel that we all have the same goal. Truth. Because if there is a bigger narrative that you are living in, you wouldn’t want to miss out on it, would you? GOD Paradise

The Studentsamskipnadene have to recognize the nynorsk student Equal languages
To be comfortable in your own language, you have to see it used throughout your life. There are thousands of students using Nynorsk at universities and colleges, and they see too little Nynorsk in everyday life. Many, therefore, switch to Bokmål during their studies. To get the Studentsamskipnadene (the Student Welfare Organizations) to follow mållova (The Language Act) is a step that would make Nynorsk more visible at universities and colleges, and probably make more people hold on to Nynorsk. The studentsamskipnadene are there to make everyday life easier for students. They rent out places to live, run gyms and a lot more. They are often very visible in the student life and meet thousands of students every day. You are forced to be a member of the studentsamskipnade. It takes the semester fee as membership money, and gets the rest of its funding from the public. At every Norwegian university and college there are students writing Nynorsk and students writing Bokmål. If
The language law studentsamskipnadene want to show that they are there for all students, they have to see both groups and use both languages. Today, studentsamskipnadene primarily write in Bokmål. When the Nynorsk writing students don’t get to see their language in everyday life, it gets more difficult to stick to Nynorsk. It might seem like a signal that the language is not useable in all areas of society. That signal is the opposite of respect. And respect is a basis to offer good welfare services. Luckily this is possible to fix this. The studentsamskipnadene are today exempt from mållova, so they can legally ignore people who write Nynorsk. This is an unfortunate exemption, that neither leads to a cheaper or better student welfare. On the contrary it lets the studentsamskipnadene forget, and thereby make invisible, the people using Nynorsk at the universities and colleges.
Therefore, Stortinget (the Norwegian Parliament) has to change the law on studentsamskipnader, so that the studentsamskipnadene are put under mållova as a national public body. Then they have to use both Nynorsk and Bokmål, and offer important documents in both languages. A small change in the law on studentsamskipnader will lead to a lot more Nynorsk, and make it easier to be a Nynorsk-writing student.

DERES REF: Tradisjoner VÅR REF: Kultur FADERLOFTET, DEN 14.02 I DET 117. K.Å. I år 1902 ble Hankattforeningen stiftet av Johan L. Hirsch. Hans visjon for foreningen var å gi studentene på landbrukshøyskolen eller NLH en sosial ballast ved siden av studiene. Siden den gang har vi gjort Kildebrygg til vår Kulturarv. Tradisjoner er noe Hankattforeningen stiftet 1902 setter høyt, høyere en det meste. På lik lengde med Kultur. Da passer det bra at Kildebrygg er Kultur og det å nyte det er Tradisjon. Tradisjon tro skal Hankattforeningen stiftet 1902 avholde revy engang om ikke så alt for lenge, så ro ned Thorvald, ja du og Tora for revyen som dere har ventet på er her snart. Da kan du endelig glemme alle sorger å slippe latteren ut. For nå er det vel 1 år siden sist dere lo og koste dere gløgg? Hvilken seanse likte dere best forrige gang?

SCORPIO
You are in a period where you have to make some choices. This will be a test of your ability to maintain harmony and balance. Not all choices will be difficult, but the starry sky at least tells me that you have to make several choices. Many things are possible, but everything comes with a price. Whatever you do, do not freak out, and keep the pink colour of your aura.
Do not despair, Scorpio! Worries that you have thought about will soon be resolved. This is a good time to lower your shoulders and enjoy small everyday joys while the stars are emitting harmonic energy to make this period easier for you. If you still experience worries in the end of March, you should rather be more dynamic next time.

Venus barges into your zodiac sign and drizzles stardust over you. This can only mean one thing: Love is in the air! Alternatively, it can also mean tragedy. It depends on how quickly you act. Take in as much romantic energy from the stardust as you can. This is an excellent opportunity to experience Venus’ effect on your zodiac sign. If you are single, you should seek love in new ways. Grab the chance and send a personal ad to Tun & Tre!
The universe tells me that something positive can happen in March, but be prepared that something negative can happen instead. With my third eye, I see that the stars are at least in position for something to happen in the coming month. You can thank me later.

The planet Jupiter will take its time to pass your zodiac sign, and you enter a calm period with neither positive nor negative energy. Your mind will be filled with a unique “all right” energy. But be attentive, especially when March begins. Then something unexpected might happen. If it happens, you should seek people with strong auras. But as always, trust your gut feeling.
Cosmic focus is on you during this period. You are facing a universe of possible scenarios and your aura is shining in all the colours of the rainbows. The stars give you the potential to go into the best period of your life. Listen to them and let them lead you. Everything can happen.
Saturn enters the House of Possibilities, and you will have a chance to try something new. “Yes!” your spiritual side shouts, because you have considered choices that has not been optimal and it has affected the energy around you. The universe opens up for everything to go your way. You just have to make the right choices and have luck with you. Mark my words.

Oh, Taurus. Do you want the good or the bad news first? I of course know that your subconscious want the bad news first, so I will start there. Saturn is going straight towards your zodiac sign and this can create chaos and imbalance in your cosmos, that is hell, but there is hope. The good news is that if you open your mind, you will understand that this is simply the universe granting you wisdom. If this does not help, you can of course fill up your glass with something good and try again.
Your leading planet Mars enters the area of inner peace. The sun in you is longing to shine even brighter, so let it loose! Do not let anything get in the way of your radiance. My great advice for you is to avoid bad vibes in the time ahead. I also predict some dubious energy on late party nights, so choose your after party with care.
The moon wanders secretly past your zodiac sign and leaves some mysterious energy. You enter a special period where you look for answers for the things you wonder about. I also see some signs of a secret admirer wishing to contact you.

PISCES
February 20th –March 20th
Something from the past will show up, and not without a reason! Your leading planet Neptune is trying to tell you something.

I have always felt that I am alone. I do not find this to be strange. Naked and alone, we enter this world. We do not know what awaits us. In our mother’s womb, we are warm and safe. Here, there is kinship. Then all of a sudden, we are exposed to a completely different reality. I become a human and will grow up amongst other humans. I have always felt alone. We enter the world alone, and we leave this world on our own. When a person leaves this world, they leave all by themselves. We cannot take anyone with us when we die. We leave this world alone. Humans need companionship. We are not placed on this earth to be alone. We are relationship driven creatures. It is not good for a human to be alone. We need each other. People need other people. We are social individuals. We need one, we need two, we need to belong to a group. A human is not a separated land mass. No lonely island. I become human, when I interact with other humans. When my eyes meet another’s gaze, I know I exist. It is in a relationship with another person that I find life. Without companionship, the child dies. I need a response. A human needs confirmation. When a child smiles for the first time we understand that a human has come into the world. That smile creates life and connection. It is a sign. I am not alone in this world. Someone is searching for me. In my youth, I seeked out nature. The woods gave me protection. Bird song relieved the loneliness. The flowers growing out of the earth comforted me. One can
