Hi Club! Three things:

Shut-up & Sign is being held tonight at 5:30 in Sycamore 0008. Hope to see you there!

We are still looking for someone to commit to secretary and/or treasurer. It's only a semester commitment, and you do not need to be a strong signer! Exec team is a lot of fun and looks great on resumes for majors and non-majors.

ASL Club will have a table at Culture Shock this Sturday! See you then!
