The best artists of Norway, friends for life, Wednesday Quiz, karaoke, music festivals, dancing, work experience, and a whoooooole lot more (the list itself could make this text seriously long!). It all happens at the student house Rokken.
During the semester opening ceremony at Volda University College, the Minister of Research and Higher Education, Henrik Asheim, encouraged every student to appreciate the privilege of being a student. Both in terms of the social and academic aspects.

Finally happy news for all festival lovers: Animation Volda is one of the few festivals NOT having to cancel due to Corona restrictions. Make sure to highlight 1st – 4th of October in your calender!
