Hi Off-Campus Community,


If you are concerned about housing issues related to the graduate-school
experience (as many of us are at this time of year), this event may be
interesting to you. Stay tuned for more housing-related information soon in
our regular newsletter.


Take care,

Luke and Kelsey, HCA Off-Campus co-chairs
