<b>SP Prudential Skywalk Ice-cream Redemption<br>
</b><i>JP Licks issues ice-cream certificates apologizing inconvenience
caused.<br><br>
</i>The Sidney & Pacific Graduate Community, co-sponsored by the GSC
Orientation Committee, hosted the Prudential Skywalk tour on August
31. Unfortunately on the night of the event, JP Licks was unable to
honor the pre-arranged agreement, citing technical difficulties with
their newly installed cash registers.<br>
For students who were unable to redeem their $2 discount at JP Licks, you
may turn in your uncollected ticket at the SP front desk (NW86) to pick
up your ice-cream certificate. There is a limited amount of
certificates available so please redeem your tickets as soon as
possible.<br>
