Sweden is fantastic
Back in the innocent 1970s he thought Sweden was an ideal, perfect society. Returning 40 years later, Jack Schwille, Professor at Michigan State University, is still highly impressed, notwithstanding the fact that the world has caught up with Sweden.

Passion for cricket
Gurumurthy Hegde comes from India. He began working at the University of Gothenburg last year and soon became convinced of the advantages of interdisciplinary research. He is happy to stay in Sweden for a few more years, which also means that the cricket team he started has a chance to become established.
