Malmo Update


Ms. Lyndell Lundahl

Student Services Officer
World Maritime University

For WMU students living in Malmo, keeping up with local news is something of a dilemma. While students have good access to international news through cable television and the Internet, what is happening in Malmo itself can remain a mystery. Not many students speak Swedish!
The Univeristy tries to fill the gap with a small newsletter called "Malmo Update", keeping students in touch with local news, events and cultural traditions. It is reprinted on this website to keep graduates informed about what is going on in their Swedish "hometown". Malmo Update is written by Lyndell Lundahl, Student Services Officer at WMU, and appears most Fridays - except when she is on holidays or is very busy with other things!
