Description

What would you like?

Add more activity categories, at this point I can think of:

  • active-social – Hybrid events like beerbiking, glowgolf
  • career – Lunch lectures and career-related activities
  • conference – Large-scale events like SNiC
  • cultural – Artistic or cultural outings (cinema, museum, theatre)
  • education – Study support, academic workshops, or lectures
  • external – Promoted but externally organised events
  • interest-list – Sign-up based interest tracking
  • interest-meeting – Exploratory meetings (perhaps based on interest lists)
  • meeting – Formal gatherings like GMMs
  • party – Celebratory events with music and dancing
  • recreational – Casual fun like movie nights, board games, quizzes
  • save-the-date - Placeholder for upcoming events without full details
  • social-drink – Informal drinks, borrels, pub meetups
  • sports – Physical activities like ice skating, bouldering
  • weekend – Multi-day events, often off-campus
  • workshop – Skill-building sessions, trainings or workshops
  • other – Catch-all for uncategorized or experimental formats

This must be a mandatory field for each activity. For all options except for other, a chip will be displayed (just like the activity labels).

Why is this needed?

Currently, we only have one category: career. However, I foresee changes in the activity policy that may result in the exclusion of people from specific categories of activities.
