Congratulations to our colleagues on a well-earned victory—and see you all next year for the SHOC-organised quiz! 👏🎉
Three SHOC teams competed this year, and one of them—featuring Ward Leloup, Jolien Gijbels, William Torbeyns, Brent Huygh and Thijs Costers, better known as “The Quiztorians”—even brought home the trophy.
As tradition has it, they’ll have the honour of organising next year’s quiz.
🏆 Quiz champions! 🏆
Once again, our SHOC members showed they’re experts in more than just history at the annual VUB staff quiz.
Developing and presenting an academic poster is an important part of the training programme, helping students communicate their research clearly and concisely—an essential academic skill! 💡
