Hi all!

The gifts have all been unwrapped and we’re offered a short respite before the valentines advertisements begin the inevitable barrage.  We’re now faced with three months of snow and ice that came too late to be glamorized by Bing Crosby, or Will Farrell.  Like waking up from a three-week dream, we realize professors are still scheduling exams and on-the-go sandwiches are still astonishingly subpar.

But Wait, there is a spark glinting in the center of this frigid campus!  EWB is planning a great semester to get our minds working towards the brighter future that spring promises!  We have a lot planned and a lot to get done this semester, so join us for our first chapter meeting this Wednesday at 6pm!  Meetings will be held in the basement of Armstrong hall this semester, which is a change from previous semesters.  We will be meeting in the i2i design studio lab (think ENG 131 room with big rolling tables).  We will be going over the goals for the semester as well as announcing details about this semester’s callout and travel team applications!

Welcome back, we’re glad to have you!

All the best,

Seth Lindley
