On Tuesday, 13th October 2009, the Student Union at Tomas Bata University in Zlin held a “Welcome Party for First Year Students”. The event featuring six different music genres presented on five venues attracted a record number of visitors – more than 2500.
Besides several competitions the highlight of the evening for first-year students undoubtedly was the “initiation ceremony”, during which they pledged their loyalty to the University by raising their right shoe.
Mr. Jan Otruba, a student at the TBU Faculty of Multimedia Communications, took second place at the Tour Region Film Festival in Karlovy Vary thanks to his film “ZlíNY – Zlín in New York”. Competing with 128 films entered, all of them focusing on the topic of tourism, he managed to finish in second place. The picture, also designated as the ZLIN Promo 2008, was shot last year to be shown during an exhibition staged in the Czech National House in Manhattan and was aimed at presenting the current town of Zlín to the Americans. The Tour Region Film Festival 2009 was held in the “Thermal” hotel between 7th and 8th October as a part of the 42nd edition of the international Tourfilm festival.
This year the Library at Tomas Bata University in Zlin will co-organize Bibliotheca Academica, a prestigious meeting of university librarians coming from all over the Czech Republic.

The movie "Brutpong" directed by Tomáš Hubáček was announced as the Audience Award winner in the “Students’ Laughing Pot“ section. According to the festival’s tradition, the time during which the audience was laughing when watching the film within the competition was the decisive factor – the award winning movie made the spectators laugh during 28,33% of its total duration.

The Student Union at Tomas Bata University in Zlin, in cooperation with the Golden Apple Cinema, other cinemas in Zlin and the server Vychytané.cz, invites all students to participate in the first ever Pillow Battle fought in the Zlin Region. The event is scheduled to take place in the car park in front of “Velké kino” (Grand Cinema) at 17:00 on Wednesday, 7th October 2009.
Nevertheless, the point of the Pillow Battle is not you should punish persons you don’t like, known or foreign to you, and - what is most important – we are not looking for a winner. The main idea is to have a good time, laugh, tear up a few pillows and return to childhood. During the event a non-professional photo contest will be held. Everyone will be enabled to take pictures, make all sorts of audio and video recordings or ask any of the organizers a question.
We are looking forward to meeting you!
