Hee everyone! I’m Renée, 23 years old and in my 4th year of biology. I’m a real Brabander (living in the south of the Netherlands) and I have been living happily in the beautiful Nijmegen for a while now. Besides being a proud member of BOC, I’m also joining the committee PRAC, where you may see me during the awesome borrels which are organized by us. Furthermore, I like horseriding, mountainbiking, and love to play some games and drink some beers with my friends. I’m really looking forward to meet all of you in next orientation!
Lars de Bont (Treasurer):
Hellooo, I am Lars. I’m 23 years old and I’m in my third year of Biology, doing the medical trajectory. I was born and raised in the beautiful city of Nijmegen, so I definitely know my way around. Overall, I’m a pretty calm and relaxed person, but I am also always up for hanging out, or drinking and going partying. I really enjoy being active within the study association so you can often find me at many of the BeeVee activities, and I am also a part of the sports committee, the almanac committee and since this year: the orientation committee! I am very excited to meet you all during the orientation week, as I had a great time during my own orientation and I want to make sure that you do as well!

I’m also an active member of BeeVee, the biology study association, and in BeeVee I’m also a member of the borrel committee called PRAC. Besides BeeVee I also like football, skiing and partying. I’m really looking forward to the introduction week, and I hope that we can have an amazing intro!
Odilia von Bayern:
Heyy, I'm Odilia, I'm 21 years old and currently in the second year of my bachelor. Unlike the others I'm not from the Netherlands but from the beautiful Bavaria in Germany. So, I know very well how it is to arrive in a completely new country but I have really grown to love the city of Nijmegen. I'm very much looking forward to this year’s Orientation. I can't wait to meet everyone who will join us in this amazing week!!
