De Blauwe Schuit heeft ongeveer 280 leden. De sociëteit, haven en loods liggen ideaal bij elkaar op het Universitair Watersport Centrum in Leiderdorp. Wat heeft de Schuit jou te bieden?Het hele jaar door wordt er instructie gezeild en worden er kampen, zeildagen en wedstrijden georganiseerd. In het zeilseizoen kun je op maandag- en woensdagavond instructie volgen en per jaar hebben we vijftien instructieweekenden en zeildagen. In de zomer kun je ervoor kiezen mee te gaan toeren op ons FF65 kajuitjacht, wat ontzettend gezellig is! Verder kun je altijd een instructeur bellen als je wilt zeilen! In de winterperiode wordt er aan de boten geklust, maar uiteraard kan er dan ook nog gezeild worden. Instructie wordt gegeven door instructeurs en kost je helemaal niets. Wanneer je een brevet hebt behaald, mag je zelf een boot meenemen en instructie geven! Zelf een boot meenemen kost tussen de 15 en 25 euro per dag.Naast zeilactiviteiten worden er ook andere gezellige activiteiten georganiseerd door verschillende commissies. Elke dinsdag wordt er vanaf 20.00 uur geborreld in de sociëteit en kun je ook mee-eten. Daarnaast worden er regelmatig filmavonden, feesten en andere activiteiten georganiseerd! De maand september is de Blauwe Maand. In deze maand maken eerstejaars kennis met alle onderdelen van de vereniging: commissies, zeildagen, feesten, themaborrels, avondinstructie en meer!

Sinds november 2022 zet de D&I en studentenwelzijn werkgroep (negen studentmedewerkers onder leiding van Coördinator Diversiteit en Inclusie/ Wellbeing officer Susanne Deen) zich in om de thema's diversiteit & inclusie en studentenwelzijn meer zichtbaar en bespreekbaar te maken op de faculteit rechten.

Zo houden wij ons bezig met het organiseren van evenementen voor eerstegeneratiestudenten, het plannen van D&I career events, het opzetten van de woonkamer en het ontwerpen van de feestdagen kalender. /// Since November 2022, the D&I and student wellbeing working group (nine student employees led by the Diversity and Inclusion/ Wellbeing officer Susanne Deen) has been committed to making the themes of diversity & inclusion and student wellbeing more visible and present at the law faculty.

S.A. LIFE is the study association for students Life Science & Technology (LST). LST was founded in 1999 by a collaboration between Leiden University and Delft University of Technology. The combination of the two universities gave, as often said, “the best of both worlds”: fundamental cell biology in Leiden together with applied biotechnology in Delft. Study association LIFE was founded at the same time as the study LST. Although S.A. LIFE began with only thirty members at the time, LIFE has currently, twenty years later, grown into an association with more than 800 members. It is for these members, consisting of students of the bachelor program or the Leiden or Delft master program, that the study association forms a platform for career, education and social activities.
