In lecture halls you sit and listen, project rooms are there for group sessions, and when exam period hits, you fight for a spot in the Library to study. The campus seems to be a place with a clear purpose: work on your research, or work on your degree. But our campus is also increasingly political. Between the concrete, the glass and the grass, we’ve seen protests on the Library stairs, on the lawn in front of the Aula and around the offices of the executive board. Is the campus designed f...| Studium Generale
We’ve all seen it: in a group, a few voices dominate, others fall silent, and some struggle to break through. Maybe you’re an introvert, like me? Personality plays a role — but so do identity, power, and context. What does it take for you to speak up and be heard?| Studium Generale

Before the summer, a tent camp appeared between the Library and the Aula. I heard colleagues (not from Studium Generale) sigh that the campus is not an “action camp.”| Studium Generale
Across the world, women are taking to the streets under the banner of Reclaim the Night, protesting the fact that they cannot move safely through public space after dark. Their message is clear: violence, exclusion, and fear are not abstract—they are embedded in how spaces are designed, regulated, and inhabited. This Autumn’s series of events […]| Studium Generale

Coming Autumn, we’ll dive into public space. Can we create space where all earth-dwellers feel welcome? In Q2-3 we’re investigating digital space, who it is created for and how we make use of it. And in our Spring programme we will focus on our inner space: the brain. Is society fit for neurodivergence?| Studium Generale
For the last four years, SG has helped organize events on campus to mark, celebrate, and learn about Keti Koti. Keti Koti, on July 1st, commemorates the end of slavery in Dutch Suriname in 1873. With the 150th anniversary in 2023, and a formal apology from the king, a lot of attention was paid to our colonial history, with a promise to continue working on healing the wounds and improving the lives of descendants of enslaved people in the Netherlands and abroad.| Studium Generale
Can we use technology, art, and philosophy to offer a hopeful, inclusive, and just perspective in which all earth-dwellers — human and non-human — can feel at home? Head of Studium Generale Leon Heuts reflects on the second edition of the For Love of the World Festival.| Studium Generale
What is the power of language in the lead-up to war? How has warfare changed in the age of AI? And can we look to the future with hope, engaging in dialogue with one another? Throughout the spring of 2025, Studium Generale events were mainly centered around War & Entropy and Language & Power. And even beyond those two themes, we organized interactive programs with surprising perspectives and meaningful encounters. Today, we are looking back on a series of wonderful programs where science, art...| Studium Generale

We leven inmiddels in een samenleving waarin alles te koop is. En passant zijn we ook gaan geloven dat de mensen met het geld en de bezittingen ons hun overtuigingen mogen opdringen. Zijn we doorgeslagen? En wat doen we ertegen?| Studium Generale
Films about AI and intelligent robots appeal strongly to our imagination. Think of Wall-E, Blade Runner 2049, Chappie, Interstellar or A.I. If we look closely at those stories, what can we discover about our connection with them?| Studium Generale
So, here you are. The dust has settled, the water lowers, and underneath the debris of what once was our civilization lies an empty, deserted landscape. There is mud and the flickering of a lamp. Crumpled pages that belonged to endless amounts of books are pushed around by the piercing wind like tumbleweed. You are one of very few sentient creatures left. Yet you are not alone…| Studium Generale
