So the E-mag has had its winter dwelling the last two month. But with young people running around the school, the energy again fills the rooms. People are having nice days; for LK11 everything is “awesome”!!
This morning, one of...

On Sønderjylland’s Museum of Art in Tønder there are ten tables painted by Per Kirkeby in 2002. The Paintings are done in oil and crayon on black masonite tables, which measures 122 x 122 cm.

Emoke's latest post: Happy 4 weeks!
Emoke, LK10, commented TR@F on her own blog, lk10ke, and the editors think it interesting to post her comment here – and give answers to her questions – because she will certainly not be the only person wondering what it means.
Emoke’s comment:

After two years of service as a teacher in journalism, Morten Gliemann and his family now moves further down the stream, more precisely 15 km south to Tønder. Løgumkloster Højskole, Morten – and Tønder – will never be the same again. And then, life still goes on like it always did – Morten is still the same funny guy with an interesting global perspective, and Løgumkloster Højskole is ...
New Dining Hall
On the evening of June 4th, the new dining hall was in use for the first time. Curiously, on the last night of the long term course 2010. We had been promised a new dining hall since the beginning of January, but due to snow and worker’s coffee breaks, the work was delayed 5 months. Anyway, LK10 enjoyed their last meal in the dining hall!

New Teacher Found a Path to the Brim of the World:...
You could say, that this new teacher was quite a catch for Løgumkloster Højskole. Because: What is there to do at the brim of the world? But Martin Bonde Christensen looks at this in a different way. “A brim,” he says, “can be compared to an edge, so in some strange way, I’m now living on the edge.” I find this comparison brilliant – why didn’t anyone ever think...
