Campus poet elections
Campus poet elections
An election is held annually to determine the new Radboud University campus poet. This election is organised by multiple parties: Cultuur op de Campus, On Rough Planks and De Nieuwe Oost|Wintertuin.
What does the Campus poet do?
The Campus Poet is the literary face of the campus for a whole year. They provide the campus with wanted and unintended literary commentary. As a Campus Poet you perform; think of lectures, festivals and literary evenings both on campus and in the city.
As a Campus Poet you can be asked to perform by various parties after you have won the competition. Think of the Poetry Week programming of Cultuur op de Campus or a performance at the Wintertuin festival. You really try about campus life and related matters. If inspiration fails, you can always visit one of the three organizers, De Nieuwe Oost/Wintertuin, Literary Magazine On Rough Planks and Cultuur op de Campus.
