6.2.7 Student associations<br />
The University of <strong>Pavia</strong> has many student associations. There are three Student Lists,<br />
representatives of all the students of the university: the Coor<strong>di</strong>namento per il <strong>di</strong>ritto allo<br />
<strong>stu<strong>di</strong></strong>o – Udu (left‐wing), Ateneo studenti (catholic) and Azione Universitaria (right‐wing).<br />
Every two years there are elections where students can vote the list they want and the<br />
elected students will take part in some administrative bo<strong>di</strong>es of the University. A full list<br />
of student associations can be found at:<br />

6.2.8 Coor<strong>di</strong>namento per il <strong>di</strong>ritto allo <strong>stu<strong>di</strong></strong>o – Udu<br />
This student association was founded in 1979 to protect student rights. The values of Udu<br />
are solidarity, antiracism, antifascism and peace. The ideals are close to the political left<br />
wing but, in order to be independent, they refuse any economic aid that doesn’t come<br />
form their own activities. They organize film screenings, free entrance parties, lectures<br />
and concerts. They offer assistance to all students, help with fin<strong>di</strong>ng accommodation and<br />
legal assistance in cooperation with other associations.<br />

6.2.9 ESN – STEP<br />
STEP (Studenti Erasmus <strong>Pavia</strong>) is a non‐political and non‐profit student association, whose<br />
main aim is to provide Erasmus students with all the information and support they may<br />
need in order to make the best out of their time in <strong>Pavia</strong>. Nearly all members of this<br />
association have been Erasmus students themselves so they do really know what sorts of<br />
problems or uncommon situations a foreign student has to face during a long stay<br />
abroad. They can be helpful both in university concerns and in social life matters as well:<br />
they organize language exchanges, meetings, parties, concerts, guided tours and other<br />
<strong>di</strong>stinctive or unusual events. Also other international students can participate in the<br />
activities organized by ESN‐STEP.<br />
