This practice was discontinued for a while between 1959 and 1964. In 1965 it was resumed, but now called a [[Karnaval]] ("carnival") for a while, but later the name [[Maties JOOL]] was resurrected , eventually becoming the bilingual [[Maties Jool/Rag]]. Also referred to as ''[[Connect]]'' in some documents.

−	Besides a a number of smaller events and the street parade with floats, the event also includes the popular ''[[Vensters]]'' ("Windows") competition, which is a rather interesting event preceding the parade, where the University residences decorate the windows of the buildings, and - using the decorated façade as décor - put on a theme-based performance with the new students, on the grounds in front of the residence, where sets and seating facitlities are erected. The main road through the campus is closed for the evening and the public can wander through to view the various "stages" and "performances". The best [[performance]] is judged by a panel of students and staff.
