Leadership and HerCDM

Posted by KL in 18. Oct, 2011, under Uncategorized

Hey all,

Week 7 is upon us and hopefully midterms are over for everyone at this point. How is everyone holding up? The end is near for a nice, long, well-deserved break! The second of a string of Leadership Workshops will be tomorrow from 4:45-5:45 in the same room. Here’s the catch; you can ONLY attend this workshop if you attended the first.  However, there is something you can do before your night classes!  HerCDM will be meeting in 924 form 4:30-5:30 with mini subs to munch on! I will be missing for the meeting but there will be two other hosts for the event. Cece Story, student coordinator for Digital Divas will be one of them so harass her for the food! See you all next week. Questions? Just email me. Be on the lookout for my emails :)
