A New Era

Hey guys,

Great meeting last week! Picking jobs was hella-fun. Now, onto my duties as manager of the blog and blackboard (what are those again?) I guess I can start by reminding everyone about the meeting this thursday at 3:30 (our usual time) at room 54 (the usual place). See you there I guess!

(Wow that was easy),
Sam.

Emily's Wonderful Orientation Manual -- Yours to Own!

Hi all! In case you glossed over SMR's lengthy email (I know I did), your SJP orientation manual is now available at Gnomon. It should cost somewhere b/w $4-$7.

Emily has done a wonderful job with this manual, and it will be very useful to you as you begin your SJP. We will begin our orientation week in January discussing the manual, so you will want to find some time over the break to read it. It is a very manageable length, and should probably take no more than 2 hours to read.

Enjoy!

I MISS YOU!!!

Hey all. I'm on co-op right now, sitting at my desk, all by my lonesome with no one to roleplay with. That aside, I'm really digging BU General Counsel. Everyone is really nice and there is a great variety of work (most of it over my head right now!) I miss you guys so much and hope you're having a great time with Julia. Keep me posted and darn it, someone throw a party soon!

Ok, that's all. Back to work. In the meantime, if you miss me, just click HERE. Nathan, Belle, and I made a video for you.
