The International Relations Office, in collaboration with the Buddy team, hosts an annual St. Nicholas party for SBA international students. In today's situation, we didn't know whether or not a meeting would take place until the very last minute. Due to the unfavorable pandemic situation, the party did not take place at the Faculty this year either. We did not, however, want to deprive our international students of the St. Nicholas’ tradition. St. Nicholas and his helpers paid a visit to the students in front of the Na Vyhlidce dormitories.

The meeting took place on Friday, December 3rd, in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. The devil took care of all the sinners present after St. Nicholas introduced the students to the folk custom of the St. Nicholas patrol. They were required to recite, sing, or dance. The selection of national songs and dances pleased St. Nicholas. All international students received a Santa Claus gift from the angel. Even though the St. Nicolas' party did not take place in the end, we believe the students had a great time. The International Relations Office and the Buddy team wish the students good luck in their exams, a happy holiday season, and look forward to more events in 2022.
