Hello everyone!
Next week, HGSA will be running its much-anticipated book sale! Ken will be
sending around the flyer shortly with information on the exact timing. As
per usual, it will be in Robinson Hall's Great Space. This is a wonderful
opportunity to get used books donated by faculty members and we are
expecting some new 'shipments' soon.
In order to have the sale run smoothly, WE ARE IN NEED OF VOLUNTEERS. The
job is simple, take students payments for the books and remind them of the
pricing policy ($2 for all paperbacks and $5 for all hardcovers). I will
send out an email this weekend to all who volunteer with more in depth
instructions. Volunteers will be compensated with one book of their choice
for every hour they help out! THOSE WHO HELP WITH THE SET UP THIS SUNDAY
WILL RECEIVE A FREE PIZZA PARTY!
