Hello fellow off-campus students,

The GSC Housing and Community Affairs (HCA) Committee has new leadership.
Randi Cabezas and Iain Dunning are the new committee co-chairs. The
off-campus subcommittee is part of the HCA.

I encourage you all to get involved with the HCA, or the OC subcommittee to
voice your concerns, plan events and make the off-campus community more
vibrant.

On that note, here are this batch of announcements:
