<br><b>UA Dining Committee</b><br>The Dining committee is looking for
three new members to help with our
current projects and to come up with some new ones. We represent the
interests of students on all issues related to dining--meal plans,
kitchens, student center vendors, food trucks, etc. More information
about the committee is available on our website (<a href="http://ua.mit.edu/committees/dining" target="_blank">http://ua.mit.edu/committees/dining</a>)
or by contacting the committee
chair at <a href="mailto:ua-dining-chairs@mit.edu" target="_blank">ua-dining-chairs@mit.edu</a>.<br><br><b>UA Committee on Student Life</b> <b>/ CSL</b> (help with wellness week)<br>Wellness Week is a week dedicated to health and well-being in late
April/early May for MIT undergraduate students. Events range from Zan
Berry's famous "How to Cheat Sleep" Lecture to Active Mind's Bubble Fest
to CSL's free breakfast every morning. The two committee members will
help Grace and I with planning the outdoor reception, getting in contact
with the different health groups on campus, and overseeing the
organization of the different Wellness Week events (i.e. making sure
Active Minds has everything they need for Bubble Fest and that the event
runs smoothly). CSL will be taking on a more administrative role this
year, but that is why it is essential that new committee members be
organized and dedicated. You will be able to gain experience with
coordinating campus-wide events, collaborating with student groups, and
developing contacts with key MIT offices. We especially encourage
students who would be interested in being a part of CSL long-term.<br><br><b>UA Special Projects Committee</b><br>Have
