We are again looking for creative patch designs for our coveralls and patches project. So if you feel like realizing a patch according to your ideas about the student council, now is your chance. Just send us your idea as a drawing, graphic or vector file – together we can work on your patch. If your patch is realized, you will receive an exclusive Henning heart patch and of course your own patch.
You can design your patch according to your own ideas – it should only have a student context. This includes student events, everything around the first time, courses of studies, subjects, milestones, places, things you have to have done or funny things around your studies.

The competition for the room name for the large multi-purpose room of the student council is over; and we have a worthy winner!
The room will be called B.A.R.D.O.W., as an acronym for “Nonsense Acronym to Reminisce with the Dissipated Ordinary of Thermodynamics”, meaning of course Professor Bardow, former head of the Chair of Technical Thermodynamics, who recently moved to ETH Zurich.
Our fellow student Simon Urban must have racked his brains over this.
If the contribution to this room name was not ingenious enough, Professor Bardow also helped out significantly via Twitter:
I love the students @RWTHFakultaet4 😂😍😂@fsmbrwth wants to name a new study room
I might be biased but I do have a favorite:
B.A.R.D.O.W. = “Stupid acronym for the reminiscence of the dissipated professor of Thermodynamics”

Thus the result is also clear, from 489 delivered votes 310 are allotted to B.A.R.D.O.W.!
Of course Simon wins Merch from our current collection and may surely be one of the first who can indulge in memories of Professor Bardow in the B.A.R.D.O.W., as he writes so beautifully in his article:
Akronyme. Menschen mögen Akronyme. Wissenschaftler lieben Akronyme. Das WZL vergöttert Akronyme – und verbringt vermutlich mehr Zeit mit der absurden Benennung ihrer Forschungsprojekte als mit der Forschung selbst (https://www.wzl.rwth-aachen.de/go/id/cenxo).
Auch die Benennung von Gebäuden und Aktivitäten an der RWTH fördert immer wieder kreative und äußerst naheliegende Akronyme zu Tage, wie zum Beispiel C.A.R.L. (Central Auditorium for Research and Learning), KARL (Koordinierte abwechslungsreiche revitalisierende Lernunterbrechung) oder aber auch CARL (Center for Ageing, Reliability and Lifetime Prediction of Electrochemical and Power Electronic Systems).
Damit nicht in spätestens 10 Jahren jeder Winkel der RWTH mit einer Referenz an den Gottkaiser unserer Kur- und Badestadt benannt ist, gilt es hier ein neues Kapitel der Heldenverehrung anzubrechen und gleichzeitig den rhetorisch-intelektuellen Mega(-abwärts)-Trend der Akronymkultur zu zelebrieren.
Wenn das C.A.R.L. zur Huldigung einer Aachener Maschinenbau-Legende erst mühevoll in Schmachtenburg umgetauft werden musste, sollte die vereinte Maschinenbauerschaft jetzt die Chance ergreifen und den Fachschaftsraum als ihre geistige Zentrale sofort würdig benennen. In liebevoller Erinnerung an einen erst kürzlich abhandengekommenen Lehrmeister kommt daher nur ein einziges Akronym in Frage, das diesem Anspruch gerecht wird und gleichzeitig so naheliegend wie trivial ist:
B.A.R.D.O.W – Blödsinniges Akronym zur Reminiszenz an den Dissipierten Ordinarius der Wärmelehre.
Solange einem Reminiszenz und Ordinarius Fremdworte sind, nicht aber Dissipation und Wärmelehre, hat man automatisch bewiesen, dass man dem ehrwürdigsten aller Studiengänge angehört und in diesen Fachschaftsraum eintreten darf.
In diesem Sinne hoffe ich, dass wir bald nicht nur in Erinnerungen *an*, sondern literarisch *im* BARDOW schwelgen und dieser Raum den entropischen Charakter der FSMB und aller Maschis bestens repräsentiert.
Also on the stairs are the “Machine Room” and “RWDR: Richtig-Gewichtiger-Dings-Raum”.
We are happy that everyone had so much fun naming a room and thank everyone who sent in a room name!
