[GSC-HCA-Offcampus] This week's off-campus events

[Alex Levin]

Fellow off-campus residents,

This week, there are a few fun events on the schedule, including pool, a 
brunch, and a flavor tripping party.  We hope to see many of you at 
these events!

Also, as our term as off-campus chairs comes to a close, we are 
recruiting MIT students for this position.  Organizing off-campus events 
is lots of fun and is a great way of getting involved with the GSC and 
the student community.  The position also gives you lots of flexibility, 
and the opportunity to use your creativity to really define the role.

If this sounds like something you'd be interested in, just drop us a 
line at gsc-hca-offcampus-chair at mit.edu.

Best,

Alex & Kevin

Description: This brunch is open to any woman who would like to foster a 
diverse and engaged community outside the walls of MIT.  The event is a 
lighthearted forum to address issues each of us tends to struggle with 
during the week.  Members of the group include young stay at home moms, 
PhD students, professionals, women who have been in their fields for 
over 35 years, and everything in between. The diversity of the group 
helps foster camaraderie through shared experience.  Plus, there is 
always good food and mimosas!
