Dear Students,

The Students' Council awards the 'Busy Beaver' teaching award to outstanding lectures every semester and now asks YOU for input for their evaluation.
We received quite good grades from you in the 'Qualis' evaluation during the lecture but weren't considered in the last iteration for the award since we finished the winter semester block course at the end of March - very close to the beginning of the summer semester.
If you think we have a chance in the race for the award in the group "Core & Advanced Lectures,"  you can follow the council's instructions in their email from today: 


"For this, simply write a mail to lukasa@cs.fs.uni-saarland.de and state your opinion and arguments why a specific lecture should be considered for the Busy Beaver! We would really love to consider your input in this years nominees."


Best Regards, and have a nice lecture break!
