Grøt & Fika like a Swede
Lund University: Oat oil preparation makes you feel fuller
Lund University researchers collaborated on studies involving oat-based breakfasts (including gröt variations) to explore health benefits like unique oat oil compositions and their effects on people eating them as part of a morning meal.This ties directly into campus traditions: Swedish universities like Lund often have student canteens (kårhus or matställen) serving affordable, quick breakfasts, where plain or lightly topped havregrynsgröt is a staple—healthy, cheap, warming for cold mornings, and aligned with Nordic emphasis on whole grains. Keeping it simple:
- Ingredients (for 1-2 servings): 1 dl (about ½ cup) rolled oats (havregryn), 2-3 dl milk or water (or mix), pinch of salt, optional toppings: cinnamon, apple sauce/compote, fresh/frozen berries, milk, nuts/seeds.
- Method: Boil the oats with liquid and salt for 5-10 minutes on medium heat, stirring until creamy. Serve hot with toppings.
This reflects the broader Scandinavian college breakfast culture—practical, nutritious porridge as a no-fuss start to the day, especially in winter.Other universities mention grøt/gröt indirectly (e.g., University of Agder in Norway lists “grøt” as a familiar food with rice/oat variations topped with sugar, butter, cinnamon), but Lund provides the most direct university-linked background on it as a breakfast tradition.

It’s official – #Sweden is now the 32nd member of #NATO, taking its rightful place at our table. Sweden’s accession makes NATO stronger, Sweden safer, and the whole Alliance more secure. I look forward to raising their flag at NATO HQ on Monday.

Ghana’s Rabbit Industry
Like many folk traditions of saying “Rabbit, rabbit” to your colleagues on the first day of the month has an unclear origin and has several variations and interpretations. We use it a reason to explore university research into food sources; the proper business of education communities everywhere. In one version of the tradition, saying “Rabbit, rabbit” or “White rabbit” as the first words upon waking on the first day of the month is believed to bring good luck for the rest of that month. It is thought to ensure good fortune, happiness, and general positivity throughout the coming weeks.
The specific origins and reasons behind this tradition are difficult to trace, as superstitions often evolve and are passed down through generations. It’s worth noting that this practice is not universally known or followed, and its popularity may vary among different regions and communities. Ultimately, the saying “Rabbit, rabbit” on the first day of the month is an example of a charming and whimsical superstition that some individuals enjoy participating in as a fun way to start the month on a positive note.

Sacred Spaces
“We need the sense of the sacred, and the sense that things transcend our grasp.
We need to know that we are dependent on others,
and that the condition of our existence is the existence of others.”
“View of Eton College Chapel” 1834 William Ingalton
The founding of many education communities is inspired by faith communities. In many of them the place of worship was the very first building. College and university chapels are central places of worship for students, staff and faculty, and provide a space for solitude and reflection. A place for feeling at home in the world.
International Building Code | Section 303.4 Assembly Group A-3
There are several hundred technical standards, or parts of standards, that govern how churches and chapels are made safe and sustainable. Owing to innovations in construction, operation and management methods, those standards move, ever so slightly, on a near-daily basis. They are highly interdependent; confounded by county-level adaptations; and impossible to harmonize by adoption cycle. That movement tracked here as best we can within the limit of our resources and priorities. That’s why it’s best to simply click into our daily colloquia if you have a question or need guidance.

Richard Miniter observes that the United States was founded as four distinct religious utopias, each originating from different regions and historical periods in England (and the broader British Isles). These groups, shaped by conflicts like the English Civil War, brought competing visions of society, governance, and faith that continue to influence American culture and politics today.1. New England Puritans (from East Anglia): Strict, communal Calvinists seeking a “city upon a hill” with moral oversight and collective piety.
2. Cavalier culture in Virginia and the South (from southwest England): Hierarchical, Anglican/Royalist tradition emphasizing order, honor, and aristocratic values.
3. Middle States (influenced by the West Midlands): More tolerant, pluralistic Quaker and other nonconformist approaches fostering commerce and individual liberty.
4. Appalachian borderlands (from the English-Scottish border): Scots-Irish Presbyterian folkways stressing independence, martial honor, and anti-authoritarian egalitarianism.These enduring subcultures create ongoing tensions over freedom, authority, and religion in America.

Today is the Feast of Corpus Christi.
The 13th century Eucharistic chant of Ave verum corpus was set to music by Mozart in 1791 to be sung especially to celebrate the feast day.

Ice Swimming
January 1st is Polar Bear Plunge Day in the Great Lakes. February should just be renamed ‘We Survived New Year’s Insanity, Now We Freeze Quietly’ Month’. It is also popular among the young in other “watery” universities around the world.

Pleasures and Hazards
Pleasures:
- Increased adrenaline rush: Cold water swimming can produce a surge of adrenaline in the body, which can make you feel more energized and alert.
- Improved mood: Cold water swimming has been associated with an increased release of endorphins, which can elevate your mood and reduce stress levels.
- Improved immune function: Cold water swimming has been shown to improve immune function, possibly due to the stress response induced by the cold water.
- Sense of accomplishment: Many people find ice swimming to be a challenging and rewarding experience, providing a sense of accomplishment and pride.
- Social bonding: Ice swimming can be a social activity, with groups of people coming together to share the experience and support each other.
Hazards:
- Hypothermia: Prolonged exposure to cold water can cause hypothermia, which can be life-threatening if left untreated.
- Cold shock response: Entering cold water can cause an involuntary gasp reflex, which can lead to drowning if it occurs while the head is underwater.
- Heart problems: Cold water swimming can put a strain on the heart and increase the risk of heart attack or stroke in people with underlying cardiovascular disease.
- Frostbite: Exposed skin can become frostbitten in cold water, particularly in extremities such as the fingers and toes.
- Injury from slipping or falling: Ice swimming can be hazardous if proper safety precautions are not taken, such as wearing appropriate footwear and using a rope or ladder to enter and exit the water.
