 A senior member of a tuna is a "tunante", but is usually known simply as a "tuno".The newbies/freshmen are known as "caloiros".In the case of the Polytechnic Institute of Viseu, in 1998, the Students' Association of the School of Technology and Management of Viseu, represented by its president, gives the challenge to a former tuno from another college to found a unique tuna of the Polytechnic Institute of Viseu in order to fill an important gap in the academic life of this institution.
