Come join other off-campus grads to plan out activities for the fall

holiday parties, and dining events to name a few. Have an idea for a new

4) Off-campus Volleyball

Are you a volleyball player? Would you like to learn? The off-campus 
community is putting together some practices to keep in shape and build 
volleyball skills. If there is enough interest, we will put an IM team 
together for the spring term. Please email Anna Custo (annac at mit.edu) if 
you would like to play and we will work out dates and times to get 
together for some practices.
