Swopping TU books

If you want to buy secondhand textbooks or exchange textbooks, go to www.boeken.tudelft.nl. This new website is run by Oras, the TU%s student council, and was set-up because traditional TU textbooks are increasingly being replaced by professional publications, which are more expensive. ,,The website's design isn't yet optimal, but the system works perfectly,'' an Oras representative declares.

Three socks

Last Saturday, Delft police encountered a naked student on the Breestraat. Naked... not quite, the student was wearing three socks: one on each foot, and the other one on his% penis, to protect it from the cold. The student was accompanied by friends, who were fully clothed. Police were alerted to the naked, sock-wearing student by residents of Delft city center, who were not amused by this student prank. The nude student was fined by the police.
