• A Student Govt. stopped by. SG is made up of College Council and Graduate Council, and various subcommittees therein. Next year they are instituting new bus routes (no more 171 and maybe 173X downtown) and the new dining plan. Elections are coming up in Spring, so run if you want, and make sure to vote!
• Avi: Oscars. Tonight. Yay. Fill out ballots (by the time you read this, it is likely too late to do so).
  
• Thursday: RA interviews (preliminary, not for Vincent House specifically). Show up a little before 7-8 or 9-10 if you're interested in seeing the process/asking questions/etc.
• Saturday: BJO! Big, awesome event with the VH ShamWow Challenge. Most important part is the kickoff at 8pm--points for attendance and shoe-kicking (seriously). There is money to win, and a basketball tournament which we will try to get a team for. Also, stop failing at shamrocks and buy some! 150+ and we get an extra study break with brownies galore. GO LARGE ROOSTERS!
