University of Tromsø to Open Ombuds Office

The University of Tromsø (Universitetet i Tromsø), the world's northernmost university, will hire its first Student Ombuds by the fall semester. Daniel Hermansen, leader of the Student Parliament, said that his organization has been working on a plan for several years and that recent cooperation with the Norwegian Arctic student union made it possible. A search will begin soon. (UiT Khrono; UiT Studentparlamentet.)
