On January 22, a group of CEU students participated in a community cooking event, volunteering their time to help local people in need.
Organized by the Student Leadership and Service Office (SLSO), the cooking began at 3 p.m. at the Oltalom Charity Association center and students prepared and served 150 hot meals.
The volunteers were also given a brief history of the shelter and learned about what it does to help homeless people.
The policy modifications approved by the CEU Senate at its November 25, 2016 meeting have entered into force.

What was formerly called Monument Building 203 has been named the TIGY room and what was formerly called Monument Building 201 has been named the Hanak room.
The two rooms that originally carried these names were discontinued last spring due to ongoing campus reconstruction. Both rooms are named after individuals who were respected and well-known members of the CEU community, who passed away while still serving the University.
