Hello ALAS! Great to see you off to a great new start in 2009, together with our nation. I just wanted to clarify a mistake in the news Stephanie just sent out. The first event of this semester's Passionate about Latin America series is TOMORROW, not today. Here are details:
Environmental Justice and Sustainable Development: Student Engagement in Latin America, Wednesday, January 21, 4:30-5:30pm, 163 Upham
Thomas Klak, Geography and LAS & Susan Paulson, Anthropology and LAS; Students: Keri Agriesti, Zach Hausrath, Emma Mullaney, and Sean Regan
Two LAS faculty, two grad students and two undergraduates will reflect on work with local Brazilians and Dominicans toward environmental justice and sustainability. Discussion with audience members will highlight ways that other students can become involved in social justice, environmental and sustainability movements in Latin America and the Caribbean.
Hope to see you there, Susan

hey all :)
First off, I hope that everyone enjoyed the long weekend and has been able to watch history being made with the inauguration of our new President! I just wanted to remind everyone of a few of the upcoming events we will be having this week:
Today, January 20: A speech being made in 163 Upham at 4:30, this speech comes from the Passionate About Latin America Series, I have attached the full schedule for these speeches
Thursday, January 22: FIRST GBM!!! 6:30, basement of Kreger (CBCL) I know we usually don't have meetings on these days but we needed to change things up a bit to get people more involved! There will be food, music, games and of course a small discussion about when it would be good to have GBMs!
Also, there are going to be Latin Dance Lessons after the first GBM on Thursday at the Hamilton Downtown Center from 7-10PM.
If anyone is interested in going please let me know ASAP so I can arrange transportation!
I have also attached a flyer for an information sessions on becoming a Student Court Justice.
I hope everyone enjoys the rest of their day and I hope to see you all on Thursday!!!! <3
