Student overalls\"\"<\/h2>\n

Student overalls are the most important piece of equipment for a student. They show what the wearer studies, where they study, and for how long they have been studying. Above all, they are a way to express a student\u2019s sense of belonging to their own student community. Engineering students in Rauma wear red overalls. At events organized by Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry<\/span><\/span>, a general rule of thumb is that everyone attending is expected to wear the overalls of their own student organization, unless stated otherwise.<\/p>\n

RaunIO ry organizes an overall purchase order every autumn as soon as new students arrive, and this is announced in advance on RaunIO\u2019s social media channels. At this time, every first-year student is allowed to try on sizes and order their very own overalls. The price of the overalls may vary slightly from year to year, but for example, in 2023, the price was \u20ac55 for members of Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry. If you happen to miss the overall order for any reason, we occasionally have individual sizes available in our storage. You can ask about these by messaging us or by visiting our office in person.<\/p>\n

If you feel that your overalls don\u2019t stay up properly, RaunIO ry also sells stylish overall belts at our office for \u20ac7 each.<\/p>\n

Student overall usage guidelines<\/strong><\/em><\/h4>\n

1\u00a7 Student overalls may be worn starting from the overall baptism event, known as the Kastajaiset.<\/em><\/p>\n

2\u00a7 Student overalls are personal. Do not lend them to others.<\/em><\/p>\n

3\u00a7 Overall patches should not be sewn over existing sponsor logos unless it is absolutely necessary.<\/em><\/p>\n

4\u00a7 Student overalls may only be washed while being worn by the owner.<\/em><\/p>\n

5\u00a7 Student overalls are worn tied around the waist. The top part of the overalls should be folded so that the Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry logo remains visible.<\/em><\/p>\n

6\u00a7 Permission to raise (wear fully) the student overalls may be requested from the RaunIO ry board chairmanship once the overalls are filled with patches up to the waist.<\/em><\/p>\n

7\u00a7 A piece from the leg of the student overalls may be exchanged with your partner. A piece from the sleeve may be exchanged with a friend.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Overall Patches\"\"<\/h2>\n

The most popular way to customize your student overalls is by sewing on overall patches. At RaunIO, we also believe that overalls should never be left empty, which is why we occasionally sell overall patches from a rotating selection to anyone interested. Patches can also be earned by participating in various student events, and participation patches are always included in the ticket price of events organized by Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry<\/span><\/span> and Rauman Liiketalousopiskelijain Kilta ry<\/span><\/span>, unless otherwise stated.<\/p>\n

Patches sold at the RaunIO office cost \u20ac3 each, and for every two patches you purchase, you receive a \u20ac1 discount.<\/p>\n

Engineer’s Cap<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

The engineer\u2019s cap, more commonly known as the imppulakki<\/em>, is one of the most visible symbols of an engineer alongside student overalls. Unlike student overalls, the imppulakki is also worn at more formal occasions, such as anniversary celebrations of student organizations. The engineer\u2019s cap is an officially recognized symbol of the engineering profession by Insin\u00f6\u00f6riliitto<\/span><\/span>.<\/p>\n

Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry<\/span><\/span> organizes a joint order for engineers\u2019 caps every year, which is announced in advance on RaunIO\u2019s social media channels. The price of the engineer\u2019s cap is \u20ac99 for members of Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry.<\/p>\n

The engineer\u2019s cap can also be ordered independently by any member of the Engineers\u2019 Union throughout the year, if you are unable to participate in the joint order organized by RaunIO.<\/p>\n

The laulumatti<\/em> is an engineer\u2019s most important tool at various events. Inside the songbook, you\u2019ll find all the most essential engineering student songs, which are sung at events such as sitsit dinners and anniversary celebrations. You also shouldn\u2019t forget the tradition of collecting greetings in your songbook\u2014so always bring your own pen along with your laulumatti<\/em>!<\/p>\n

Rauman Insin\u00f6\u00f6riopiskelijat RaunIO ry<\/span><\/span> sells laulumatti<\/em> songbooks at its office, and the price is \u20ac5 per piece.<\/p>\n
