Greetings GSCA Members,

The Graduate Students of Color Association (GSCA) is planning a trip to the National Underground Freedom Center in Cincinnati, OH on November 8th, 2008.

We will be departing from the Shriver Center at 9:30am and we will return by 3:00pm. We are also encouraging students to have lunch at Newport on the Levy or on Fountain Square at 1:00pm. Lunch will be on you own but the GSCA will cover the costs of entrance to the Freedom Center for a limited number of trip participants.

If interested in attending this trip, please reserve your spot with Peter B. Sanders by noon of October 22, 2008. We need a count of committed individuals to finalize how many Miami vans we will be taking and to finalize driver logistics. If you and/or a group of fellow members want to stay in Cincinnati longer, you will need to drive your own cars, but the GSCA will still cover the entrance costs.

Sincerely,

Peter B. Sanders
GSCA Executive Board Member
