Gasque

Gasque student language for dinner followed by dancing. Dinner consists of about three dishes and requires a certain conformity of the visiting behavior. In other words; etiquette.

For example, on clothing. On gasques stated "blazer". That means a dark suit and tie or knee-length dress. On prom enjoined "full dress", which means long dress, dress or mess dress. Traditional costume is also good.

Furthermore, the time for gasquens beginning. It is often followed by a "DK". That means double quarter and means that guests should be prepared to go to dinner half an hour after the specified time. Prior to this aperitif preferably be uppdrucken. Once at the table has the ladies cavalier on his left, and vice versa.

The gasques are an opportunity to pleasantly converse with your neighbors that you are seated next to and thus make new acquaintances. The rules are intended to ease graceful behavior.

Reccegasque

The reccegasque is held each fall and spring for the nation's new members, but also older students are of course welcome. In the autumn we hold it at Gotlands nation but in spring we organize it together with one or more other nations, and we are sometimes at Gotlands. A perfect way to get to know new friends at the beginning of the semester!

Crayfish held every late summer, in early September or late August. Crayfish tails and claws are served and cherished reunions after the long summer occur!
