Thanks to all of you that have been out to our events. Hopefully movies and researching tips have helped you to balance out your school lives! We are currently working on our monthly newsletter and all settling into writing our own papers and finishing up projects, so we’ll probably be a little less present. If you have any questions or comments please contact us! We’re all up for procrastinating a little by responding.
In the mean time, here are some things to check out:
