This is the weekly update for the 2/2/10 general meeting! Hopefully everyone's wave of midterms are coming to an end soon because we have some great events planned for you! As always, here are a few friendly reminders from the day's meeting and if you'd like to attend any of the events, simply email the commissioner in charge.
Just a quick reminder, be sure to stop by the Silo next week (Tuesday through Thursday) for our Valentine's Bake Sale! We'd love if you guys come by even if it is to just say "Hi" as you are walking to class =).
