Is my student council registered? How and by when does this person register?
You can find out whether your student council is registered on the Battles Board, where the participating student councils and initiatives are listed.
Do I have to add myself to a student council?
No, we trust that the information you provide in the registration form is correct, because here you have to indicate which student council or initiative you belong to.
Is there a captain?
No, team captains are not required. At most, a team captain might be needed on the day of the event for the Christmasbattles or Summerbattles. However, this is easily implemented directly on the day of the event.
I would like to take part next semester?
The CampusBattles should become a permanent cultural highlight on campus and be repeated every year. Participation is always possible until the registration deadline for the respective winter semester.

Does this cost me anything?
No, participation in the CampusBattles is free of charge. The costs of the battles are borne by Studierendenwerk Paderborn in cooperation with partners. Partners are the inclusion brewery Josefs Bräu and the BOHO furniture workshop, which specializes in height-adjustable desks. Both are regional partners that fit well with university life, because Josefs is the first inclusion brewery in Europe to take on social responsibility and boho-moebel.de, as an office outfitter with regional roots, offers solutions for long hours of working at a desk - a problem that many people face students face.
