The Last Whipsheet!

 

Dearest Liblets,

 

Holy Libtrocious Day!  This is the last whipsheet that will ever be produced by my fair hands!  Lib caucus is coming up this Saturday, and you all will soon be in the competent, capable hands of another fine Lib secretary.  It's been an honor writing for you, but now that this is done, perhaps I'll actually start going to bed at something resembling a decent hour on Sunday nights.

 

Now, go forth, and enjoy your last (sunny) week of classes!  (Woohoo!)  Celebrate the end of the semester by coming to all of the cool Lib stuff this week.  Just try not to go too crazy - you might scare away the hordes of prefrosh.

Libtasterastic Events:

Bulldog Day Bazaar

*Monday, April 19th from 1-3 in the Lanman Center of Payne-Whitney Gym*

If you have a spare moment or two, come on down to the Lib Table at the Bulldog Days Bazaar!  We could use a spare hand or two, plus, you'll get to hang out with cool Libs!  Let's sink our hooks into, er, I mean, persuade some prefrosh into joining the Libs next year!

 

Lib Dinner

*Monday, April 19th at 5:30 in the Branford Pit*

Same time, same place, same people.  So much stays the same, yet it's still so exciting!  Come grab some food with us, and bring your pre-frosh!

 

Discussion - "Should standardized tests be abolished?"

*Monday, April 19th at 8:15, location TBA*

Our discussion is occurring during Bulldog Days, and the subject is rather appropriate.  Remember all of those standardized tests you had to take?  The SATs, SAT IIs, ACTs...  Oh, the horror!  Come discuss whether we should put an end to the torture!

 

 YPU - "Resolved: Man Ought Have Dog."

*Wednesday, April 21st at 7:30 in SSS 114*

Ben Stein is our keynote speaker this week.  He's coming despite having a nasty case of pneumonia - that's how excited he is to be coming to the YPU!  And you should be excited too!  This is the last meeting of the year, so make an appearance and hang out with your fellow YPU-going Liberrific individuals.  (I have no idea what the resolution means, by the way, so ask someone like Yassmin if you really want to know.  But, it's Ben Stein.  You should come regardless of what the resolution is.)

 

Lib Caucus

*Saturday, April 24th at 12 pm in WLH*

Come help decide the future leadership of the party!  Or, better yet, BE part of the future leadership of the party.  If you're interested in running, contact one of the people below, and if you're not interested come and make sure you have a voice in who'll be on Eboard next term.

YPU Inquisition

*Sunday, April 25th at 7:30 in the Trumbull Room (in Branford)*

Come interrogate everyone who's in the running for YPU office!  If nothing else, just come because we have the Trumbull room, which totally ROX my SOX.

 

YPU Beer Pong Tourney

We need two teams of two to compete.  If you're interested, hit me back with an email and I'll give you all the info!  You know you want a chance to outdrink the POR...

The Final Thought:

"What we call the beginning is often the end. And to make an end is to make a beginning. The end is where we start from."

~T. S. Eliot
