Hello Undergraduates,
I hope everyone is well and looking forward to the long weekend ahead (I know I am)! The seasons seem to be changing, so make sure you break out those warm sweaters and hot coffees you've been waiting all summer for. Fall is a great time here on campus, hopefully some of you got to check out the glass pumpkin sale that happened on Saturday. This year we have some exciting changes to the Byte including a weekly joke and highlight on a member of the UA.
Weekly Joke
If you ever get cold just stand in a corner for a bit. They're usually around 90 degrees.
