To give the summer semester a fitting send-off and support our fellow students with some extra motivation during the final stretch of exam preparation, we were delighted to take part in the “Long Night of Studying” at the Beitz Library for the very first time.
At our stand near the entrance, students from a wide range of degree programs not only took the opportunity to register as potential stem cell donors, but also joined us for many interesting conversations during their well-deserved study breaks. We talked about the different ways to donate, contact between donors and recipients, and much more.
We were especially excited to learn that the majority of students were already registered as stem cell donors — many of them through Campus Heroes registration drives over the past two years. This not only makes us incredibly happy and proud, but also motivates us to keep raising awareness about stem cell donation and encouraging even more people to get involved.
A special thank you therefore goes to the 10 newly registered Campus Heroes who are now ready to potentially save a life through stem cell donation.
We would also like to thank the AStA for allowing us to set up our stand inside the library.
We’re already looking forward to joining you again at next year’s Long Night of Studying!
