Thecompany that owns the rights to the license will send us the DVD two weeks before our event(we have to use their DVD.)

A representativefrom each club must attend SGA sentate meetings or else activity requests we submit will betabled. Further, if our representative misses too many senate meetings, our club could bedisbanded. Member Michael Nee volunteered to attend the first SGA Senate meeting thisThursday, January 28

. He further expressed that me might consider becoming our new SGArepresentative, but he will first need to see if he likes the position or not.Members were invited to attend a masquerade charity ball which will be held this Fridayin Cranford, New Jersey, hosted by the Iota Xi Phi Theta Kappa chapter.
