What do cars in Zambia, the climate and the fashion industry have in common? Well, for CBS students Shantel Fikile Mbulo, Alexander Kjøller and Charlotte Piller, these areas inspire them to take action in the battle for a more sustainable world.

Stress levels among Danish students are skyrocketing. Since 2013, the number of students between the ages of 25 to 34 who feel stressed has risen from 29.3 to 41.3 percent. And there’s nothing to indicate that the curve will stop its upward climb. But what’s the best way to handle the familiar cocktail of physical stress and guilt that crop up during the exam period? We got hold of Line Jønsson Vørre who changed her exam routine and has gone from being an unhappy, stressed-out student to being calm and relaxed.

Plus, we ask theologian Camilla Sløk to help us understand what this constant barrage of bad conscience and guilt is all about, that’s crippling Danish students. And of course, we ask the question: What can universities like CBS do to reduce the amount of guilt that exams can create?

Participants: Associate professor Camilla Sløk and CBS-student Line Jønsson Vørre.

After seven years as president of Copenhagen Business School. Per Holten-Andersen says goodbye to the school that has taken up most of his waking hours since he took on the task of delivering financial stability, international recognition and world-class education.

Before he vacates the chair for his successor, Nikolaj Malchow-Møller, we got hold of Per Holten-Andersen to get his final remarks about grades, students, his life after CBS, Danske Bank and of course to serve him a mouthwatering ‘gåsebryst’.

CBS came under heavy fire when it became clear that professor Mads Mordhorst had apologized for singing Kai Hoffman and composer Carl Nielsen’s ‘Den danske sang er en ung blond pige/The Danish song is a young blonde girl’ during a morning meeting at the school. The apology was given because a teacher present at the meeting felt excluded by the song, as she was nothing like a young blonde girl. But what concerns – if any – should we consider before we let our vocal cords sound at public institution?

Press play and dive deeper into the case that sparked one of the most furious debates about values in 2018.

Participants: Politician Nikolaj Bøgh, senior communication consultant Anne Kirstine Cramon, anthropologist Karen Lisa Salamon

December is upon us and it’s once again time for the dreaded and celebrated Christmas dinner – the Danish ‘julefrokost’. The annual cocktail of schnapps, Christmas beer and copy room canoodling are an institution in Denmark. But that doesn’t prevent us from feeling a substantial amount of guilt and shame the morning after. We had a chat with theologian Camilla Sløk to examine why and how the guilt and shame manifests itself doing the so-called ‘season to be jolly’.
