Hi all,

The sign up sheet <http://signup.mit.edu/gsc_och_june> has been updated
with +1 columns (i.e. if you put your name in this column, you can bring
someone else with you as well - this will also be announced in the
lottery), and you can now select multiple events.

Best,
Amanda, Shalini, and Molly
