[GSC-HCA-Offcampus] November Off-campus Events and Announcements

[GSC-HCA-OC-Chair]

Hey off-campus folks!


      In the blink of an eye, it's already nearing the end of the semester!
With a month full of holidays, we will only have one official off-campus
event this month. In response to the requests for activities in the survey,
we will be doing a Pizza and Bowling event (refer to below!)
      Also, we want to thank everyone who has participated in the survey.
We had a huge number of responses, which will really help us cater our
events to your needs! (For those who haven't filled it out, you can still
do so at http://goo.gl/forms/C0uuAwmkb3). Congratulations to the 10 lucky
winners of our lottery:

        If you are on the list, please email us when there's an event you
want to attend, and we will make sure you're on the list :) (works only
once!)
        Finally, there are a lot of important events happening - many
today! The GSC Ski Trip is always a great event, well put on and very well
attended. Be sure to grab your tickets early. There is also a big MIT event
for awareness of sexual assault going on from Nov 12-14, so be sure to
check that out. Finally, there is a Coffee House event at the Warehouse
that should be lots of fun.
       It's starting to get cold, so make sure to dress warmly! As usual,
if you have an event you'd like to put on, or suggestions to us, feel free
to email us at gsc-hca-offcampus-chair at mit.edu.

Your friendly off-campus co-chairs,
George Chao and Jennifer Tang
