Dear members of the K.N.P.S.V.,

The Ascension weekend has probably already been highlighted in your agendas, but there is no group of people more excited for that weekend than we are. We are the 79th Congress Committee of the K.N.P.S.V. and are overjoyed to welcome you all. It is a huge honour to assemble the pharmaceutical student population of Amsterdam, Groningen, Leiden and Utrecht for educational, cultural and social activities. But who are ‘we’? We are a group of six boisterous (bio-)pharmaceutical students and it is my honour to introduce them all!

We start this introduction parade with the first of our charming commissioner: Menke. Menke might look like the silent power in our committee, but is so sharp that she sometimes seems to possess a sixth sense. Menke is a real organiser-lady and she is not afraid to take action.

The other commissioner is Mimoun. Although Mimoun rhymes with lemon (at least in Dutch), he is no sour guy. Mimoun is a spontaneous guy with a velvet tongue, which will undoubtedly come in handy in the future.

We move onto the financial part of our committee, our Treasurer II: Aïsha. Aïsha is a real power woman who is not afraid to say what’s on her mind. She always manages to pick the sparkling deals for us, with a ‘no nonsense’ attitude.

The position of Treasurer I is fulfilled by the charming Melissa. Melissa is a sweet girl with a big heart, but don’t let that smile fool you. She has a good head on her shoulders and a sweet smile, which the sponsors are going to love.

Then onto the driving force behind our committee, our President Eline. Eline is a real ‘Meeting-tigress’, even though we often digress with interesting anecdotes. She makes sure that everybody does their tasks on time and watches over us as Mother the Goose.

And then the time has come to introduce myself, the Secretary: Samson. I am the merry secretary that is bursting with excitement for the undoubtedly numerous correspondences with you!

We hope to see all your beaming faces next year and we are going to make it a sparkling congress!

On behalf of the 79th Congress Committee of the K.N.P.S.V.

Samson Bulsink

h.t. Secretary of the 79th Congress Committee of the K.N.P.S.V.
