And for those really long-term planners...

The DS Calendar for next year is here. Soon, we'll start mapping out MS events...thoughts? concerns? ideas? Send 'em my way. 

Celebrations

Thanks to the Student Council, Angelica, and Clare for hosting a beautiful Holiday Tea! Thanks, too, to Stuart and the MS Orchestra, Liz and the Chorus, and Kyle and John for providing entertainment!

Thanks to Kyle for hosting and serving as a dapper Master of Ceremonies at this year's White Elephant party and to Shelli, Clare, and Jessica for mid-exchange entertainment! Please note that Bill is pursuing a restraining order to prevent pigeons from flying within 100 feet of campus.
