[GSC-HCA-Offcampus] Off-campus events and announcements

[HCA Off-Campus Chair]

Dear fellow off-campus graduate students,

       We hope you are having an excellent and relaxing summer! While July
was fairly quiet in our activities department, we are back this month with
two events to get you prepped for the start of the school year (while
avoiding the orientation rush!)

      Below are some opportunities for the upcoming week in the off-campus
community. As always, if you have a suggestion for an event or an issue
regarding off-campus life that could be relevant for discussion with the
GSC, please let us know. If you have an event that you would like
advertised to this list, use this form: http://goo.gl/QtXtNP . We're always
looking for help brainstorming and organizing new events.

Your off-campus co-chairs,
George and Jennifer
