UNIFORMS Our uniform (and trademark) in the numerous parties and events that take place along the year is an orange overall. Don't ask why, we don't know either. It's part of the student tradition in Finland. I suppose it provides some kind of feeling of unity –and it usually protects the clothes underneath. Students wear also different kind of badges on their overalls. You can buy guild’s own badges from our ’catering specialists’ and also from the university’s bookstore.
