JFV x NEXUS
Joint Activity Committee
The Joint Activity Committee between the Juridische Faculteitsvereniging (JFV) and the Nexus Student Association, is a committee created in 2023; that will aim to integrate Dutch and International students of the Faculty of Law better. The intention behind this move is to ensure a more unified student experience for all RUG students.
Auditors
The Auditors are a Committee comprised of students that are nominally independent of the Association. They function autonomously of any directive from the General Board, and provide the Board with an audit of the Association's finances. As such they ensure that the Association has not gone overbudget and enable the financially-sustainable running of Nexus.
