The University of Porto will hold on September 16, at 3 PM, the traditional New Students Reception Session 2026/2027. The event, which marks the official start of the academic year for new students, will take place at Praça de Gomes Teixeira, next to the Rectory, and in the surrounding area.

Capitol Invaders Demand Compensation and Sue the State

Several invaders of the United States Capitol are suing the federal government seeking compensation totaling hundreds of millions of dollars. The lawsuits are based on the argument that authorities created a "false narrative" by characterizing the events of January 6, 2021 as an insurrection. The defendants' lawyers claim their clients were induced to believe they could enter the building legitimately, and that security forces did not prevent them from entering, suggesting the visit was authorized.
