Tomorrow it is commemoration day in the Netherlands. On this day we think of all who suffered during the World War 2, as well as those who are suffering today. Two years ago we recorded an episode in which we talked about the TU Delft during this time. Relisten this episode here and get to know what effects it had on the university and its students.
Two years ago we invited Abel Streefland, historian at the TU Delft and Pim de Jager, member of the archiving committee at DSC, a student association in Delft. We had a conversation with them about the TU Delft during World War 2. What kind of impact did it have on the decisions made at university to stay open or not? How were students affected and what could they do against the occupation by the Nazi’s? Relisten this episode and get to know more about this period in time.
