Dissertation evening:<br />
karonkka<br />
• Karonkka dinner is a custom in Finland to honor the<br />
Opponents (and people who contributed/help in your<br />
research work: opponents, supervisor, reviewers, coauthors,<br />
secretaries of the department, close family,<br />
friends,…).<br />
• Number of invited people is up to your budget (at<br />
minimum: Opponent(s)+Supervisor(s)).<br />
• Code dress and certain customs regarding the<br />
placement at dinner table (depends on you how strictly<br />
you want to follow the protocol)<br />
• A ‘thanks’ speech to be held during Dinner (for me -><br />
the second most stressful event of the day, after the<br />
actual defense); better to prepare it beforehand if you<br />
are not good at speeches
