Thank you for participating in the Resting Marathon – Now it’s time to give feedback!

Thank you for participating in the Resting Marathon! 💛

The Resting Marathon has now been successfully completed across all four campuses – a big thank-you to everyone who came to relax and recharge on campus. The atmosphere was warm and calm, and we received a record amount of feedback. In total, about 950 people took part.

In the conversations held while resting, participants especially praised the peaceful atmosphere, the music, the lighting, and the opportunity to pause for a moment in the middle of everyday life. Many even wished the event would become a permanent campus tradition.

We also received a few suggestions for improvements – for example, more resting spots during peak times, clearer signage, and a bit more visual privacy. These will be taken into account when planning future events.

Raffle:

More than 500 students took part in the raffle for noise-cancelling headphones. In addition to the headphone winner, we also raffled three meal gift cards due to the event’s great popularity. The winners will be contacted personally.

Feedback:

Thank you once again to all participants! The event was a great success and highlighted how important it is to have dedicated spaces for calm and relaxation in everyday student life. We are happy to continue developing similar wellbeing-focused events.

If you would like to give feedback or share your own ideas, you can do so through the Forms feedback survey.

Wishing you pleasant moments during the final weeks of the autumn semester! 💛
