Who are all those little people walking around? Those children have finished high school, believe it or not. Yes, the school year is starting again, and we will have to start sharing our school with the undergraduates once more. To make this difficult transition easier for us all, the Graduate Students Union has organized a series of events to welcome us back to school. They start this Friday (September 7), and include soccer ("football" I believe it's called in most of the world), ultimate Frisbee (like rugby with a Frisbee and without the tackling), concerts, movies, lots of FREE FOOD, and more. Here is the full schedule: WELCOME WEEK 2007 *Events take place in the GSA Lounge (217 - University Centre) unless otherwise noted *All meals are free! Friday, September 7 3pm - Campus Tours 5pm - BBQ Monday, September 10 12pm - "Life in Manitoba" Presentation 12:30pm - Lunch 5pm - Soccer Game @ King's Park ( Tuesday, September 11 12pm - "Life in Manitoba" Presentation 12:30pm - Lunch 5pm - Ultimate @ King's Park Wednesday, September 12 Movies w/ pizza and popcorn: Oil on Ice (12pm - 1pm) Water (1pm - 3pm) The Yes Men (3pm - 4pm) Black Gold (4:30pm - 6pm) Thursday, September 13 Student Services Fair: 10:30am - 3:30pm (lunch will be served at 12pm) Friday, September 14 Welcome Back Social 5pm - 10pm (BBQ will be served from 5pm to 7pm) Featuring the musical stylings of: - Andrew Neville and the Poor Choices - Romi Mayes - The Western States Free admission for U of M students, $5 for non-students Hope you all can make it out to these great events.

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.
