Programme-specific roll-calls 8-12am
Programme-specific roll-calls in designated time slots, with a pre-recorded welcome greeting from the vice-chancellor and Sluss (Joint Committee of Students' Unions at SLU). The vice-chancellor's welcome greeting is intended to be played as part of the roll call for each degree programme.
