[GSC-HCA-Offcampus] OCH Events over IAP

[Kirby J Ledvina]

Hello Off-Campus Folks,


Hope your 2020 is off to a good start! We have a couple of events planned during the IAP period for those of you in town. Enjoy a Friday lunch with fellow grad students at the historic Kendall Hotel. Or, perhaps get February off to a sweet start with a Saturday afternoon chocolate tour in Harvard Square.


See event details below, and add your name to the linked sign-up page to enter the lottery for a chance to attend one of these events with/without a guest. We will contact the first round of lottery winners closer to the event dates and will announce on the OCH Facebook page when notifications are emailed out.


We are also sharing an event happening THIS WEEK at Harpoon Brewery organized by the GSC Activities Committee. See the event description for more information and RSVP at the included link!


Best,


Kirby, Dylan, and Shannon
