Spring Break Edition!We probably don't have to tell you that next week is spring break. However, we wanted to mention a couple things regarding tutoring and the CUSP office. Tutoring, in Mabee Library, will not happen over the break. We will start back up with it on Monday, March 23rd. The CUSP office will be open during normal business hours (8 AM-5 PM).
Mondays @ the Mabee
The Mondays at the Mabee luncheon discussion series celebrated its first birthday with the beginning of the spring 2009 semester. This open-to-all discussion series happens every Monday from 11 AM to 1 PM on the main floor of Mabee Library. Drop by and stay for as long as you can. Lunch is usually provided free of charge.
The current schedule for the next few Mondays is:
