In the Diligentia theatre, a wonderful programme was organised in which every member of Jouke’s extensive network was invited to commemorate his sixteen years in The Hague in the form of an ‘open podium’. The contributions varied from speeches to a song of farewell com- posed by Jaap de Hoop Scheffer. The programme was presented by two talented academic staff members of the Faculty, Caspar van den Berg and Ruth Prins. Jouke was praised for his determination, perseverance, wilfulness, diversity and profound understanding of what matters to the city of The Hague and the University. The Mayor, , present- ed him with the medal of honour of the city of The Hague. The Executive Board of Leiden University offered a PhD position linked to the Jouke de Vries Research Grant.

In the evening, the entire staff of Campus The Hague and Jouke’s family enjoyed an Indone- sian buffet followed by a party where the music was provided by the first secretary of the Faculty, Frank Nodelijk and his band Crazy Friends. The Campus will now for the first time acquire a new dean and administrator. De Vries can look back with pride on what he has achieved in The Hague. In this issue:
