The SOG Chairman for the academic year of 2023-2024 is no other than Ivar Hesse. Do not let his dashing looks fool you though. He is fierce in the lab, and has been blowing up many buildings in Zernike over the course of his years in Groningen.

As a former member of BBD, he finally decided that he was too good for them. He decided to do the only right think he could think of — joining the SOG family. Since becoming part of the best association in the city, Ivar has seen his life improve tremendously. However, Ivar is not unfamiliar with the ins and outs of cult life. In fact, it is like second nature to him; Ivar is the guru of unconventional living, making it seem like a Sunday stroll for us regular mortals.

In Ivar’s spare time he collect socks and pet dogs. He is scared of the boogeyman and his girlfriend, but he is as comfortable on the rave scene as he is stealing the SOG coffee card. In defiance of these facts, SOG has basically become the ying to Ivar’s yang.

“I will die for this association if I have to!”

Obviously, SOG does not require this type of commitment from its members, but we are always happy to see the great lengths that our fans are willing to go for our honor.

All in all, Ivar is all about positivity and spreading good vibes. On any given Monday afternoon, you can find him in the SOG office doing a light-hearted spin in the office chairs, or watering the plants.

Transitioning from BBD to SOG has granted me wisdom untold — I’ve perfected the art of showing up fashionably late for meetings, and sipping beer in slow motion. My life is infinitely enhanced!
