GSp is one of the facilities for university and HBO students. 
It focuses on the philosophy of life and society the way other facilities concern culture (Usva) and sports (ACLO).GSp is a place where religious and philosophical interests of students are meaningfully related to contemporary development in society and the world of science and scholarship as well as to their personal life and history. You can meet other students, have a drink and broaden your perspectives by contemplating about sense and nonsense, religion and life.
