The Cercles, along with the Régionales (which are based around their respective regions of origin) coordinate and manage most of the students' animation and nightlife. Most Cercles run small bars to fund their activities, and also jointly operate a larger nightclub, "La Casa". </p><p>Cercles and Régionales are run exclusively by member students known as the committee. These members are elected every year, usually by voting from all members (active or otherwise) wishing to participate, although some Cercles restrict the number of possible voters in some cases. </p><p>Aside from promoting student folklore and coordinating student animation, Cercles also offer academic aid to students in their respective faculties and organize more cultural activities, such as visits to museums and/or other cities, conferences, and low-cost trips for students (for example skiing in the Alps during the Winter Break). </p><p>Every Cercle and Régionale has its own customs and traditions, but some are practiced by all: </p><p>The Baptême (<a href="/wiki/French_language" title="French language">French</a>: <i lang="fr">baptism</i>) is a <a href="/wiki/Hazing" title="Hazing">hazing</a> ceremony used by most to induct new members, who then participate in a number of trials and activities involving eggs and other foodstuff, paint, demeaning chants etc. Baptized members (les Baptisés) are among the most common type of members, and some Cercles and Régionales try to only accept new members this way, although it is in no way an obligation to be baptized in order to be a part of a Cercle or to frequent them. </p><p>The <a href="/wiki/Calotte_(Belgium)" title="Calotte (Belgium)">calotte</a> is a Belgian <a href="/wiki/Student_cap" title="Student cap">student cap</a> worn by students attending Catholic universities. They are emblems of student folklore dating back to the late 19th century. Nowadays, most calottes are passed by way of a ceremony known as the coronae. How they are passed and what must be known or done to deserve it depends on the Cercle or Régionale. One thing that is universally known, is that there is a lot of singing involved. </p><p>Cercles are notorious for their generally high output of alcohol (especially beer) and low level of cleanliness. Students tend to wear old clothes that they don't mind damaging or dirtying as a consequence, and the overall ambiance is more akin to a rave or a frat-party than a nightclub or sports bar. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Kots">Kots</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=UCLouvain&action=edit&section=14" title="Edit section: Kots"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Student accommodation in Belgium comes in the form of a "<a href="/wiki/Kot_(lodging)" title="Kot (lodging)">kot</a>", a term having <a href="/wiki/Flemish_dialects" title="Flemish dialects">Belgian Dutch</a> origin.
