Reminders & Upcoming Events

Remember! Anything that at least 4 members of the club participate in will count as a club event and will earn the club more funding!  Which means we can buy you lunch more often! All we need to do is write down the names of those who attended, their bengal id numbers, the event date and what we did. We can also do this in retrospect, so if any of you have gotten together contact me :)

Here are some things happening on campus in the next little while:
