S’WHAT, DEN, STUDY SESSION?!

Need somewhere to crunch some studying for finals? We locked down GEORGE HALL ROOM 301 from 9a-12p THIS FRIDAY. Catch help from other friends in your class as well as teaching assistants! WE’LL BRING THE COFFEE, YOU BRING THE BRAINS. And don’t forget to share this, too! :D For more information, send an email to recampos@hawaii.edu.

We here at ESSA are trying to reach out to all Ethnic Studies majors, minors and certificates to get an accurate headcount of all students who want to join us for our DEPARTMENT CEREMONY! We will be enjoying food and some kind words of departure from some of our favorite Ethnic Studies faculty!

We ask that you be an Ethnic Studies major, minor or certificate to participate AND you must be graduating this Spring 2012 semester.

Please respond to THIS MESSAGE with your first and last name and UH email address if you would like to be included in our ceremony! We will then send you more detailed information.

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact Katrielle Veslenio at krmv@hawaii.edu.

Cheers and congratulations to all of our graduates!

And make sure to click reblog to get all of your ES friends that are also graduating to come with you, too!
