Learn from each other, act together
Some say that reason is an isolated process. The lonesome thinker chiselling out the perfect argument. Others say it´s a group process flowing with creativity. Arguments crashing, new ideas and perspectives adding to the ever-growing canvas.
However it may be, action for change is best carried out together. Students and student unions have a proud tradition of changing the academic institutions, sometimes even the world, through collective action.
