4. The PHOTO SAFARI is a brand new orientation event designed to be like 
a combination of a treasure hunt (riddles, ciphers...), an underground 
unconventional campus tour and a photo contest. It will show the new 
graduate students the history and culture of MIT by organizing them in 
groups to take photos at different places on campus, and entering a 
photo competition.

WE NEED HELP!! For this thrilling event we need around 35-40 volunteers, 
and we are short of volunteers at this point.

Photo Safari details:
Date: August 28th, 2008
Time: 2:30 - 4:00 pm

So, we hope to get you to do the following.
(1) Sign up to volunteer!! It is just one afternoon for this cool 
experience.
(2) Get your friends to help out, we need many current students.

For those of you who are interested, please email Alex Chan (ahchan at mit.edu)
