Day timers
by Simon Neufeld 30 Aug '07

30 Aug '07

Hello plant science wiz-kids (grad students, that is), Courtesy of the Graduate Students' Association, we all get free (that's right, FREE) daytimers. Not only are they daytimers, but they've got lots of helpful information you need as a graduate student at this university. Courtesy of my skinny arms, you don't have to look for these free (that's right, FREE) daytimers. I carried a box of them over to our grad lounge. Now you (yes, YOU) can go down there and pick one up for yourself. While you are picking up your daytimer, you can also grab a pamphlet for the GSA-sponsored "Welcome Week" activities coming up next week (sports, live music, party, and MORE). toodle-oo, Simon.

[Fwd: Grad lounge lock-up]

-------- Original Message -------- Subject: Grad lounge lock-up Date: Wed, 22 Aug 2007 13:39:41 -0500 From: umbagava(a)cc.umanitoba.ca To: godardbd(a)cc.umanitoba.ca --------------- *Hi everyone, Thanks very much for joining the BBQ this afternoon. I am sure you all had a great time! Just a note that the grad student lounge is not usually locked. Because we all have the key, I am suggesting to keep the lounge locked after office hours, as we have some valuables in there. So, whoever is leaving the lounge later in the day, please lock the door. Even when you go home if you see the door is open, please lock it. This is very important especially during weekends. Please let me know if you have any suggestions/concerns in this regard. Thanks - Muthu* -- Bev Godard Secretary Department of Plant Science University of Manitoba 66 Dafoe Road Winnipeg, Manitoba R3T 2N2 Phone: (204) 474-8563 Fax: (204) 474-7528 Bev_Godard(a)umanitoba.ca
