   As an example of "mutual aid", an important activity early on was providing funerals for students lacking means to be shipped back home after their death. Uppsala has these large graves for each nation that was originally used for that.

   Some of them (not this one in the picture) are still used now and then for exchange students that can't be repatriated for some reason.
