PES Update 12/5

Hope everyone is doing well as the semester comes to an end. Our event this week is our Toys for Tots drive, please bring in a toy (or 2) worth approximately $5-$10 to 235 SU by 5pm this Friday December 9th. Bringing in a toy will get you one community service credit, and if you need an additional credit you must bring in two. Make sure you sign your toys in on the sign in sheet. If you have been handing in bottle slips they also must be turned into 235 SU by 5pm December 9th. Please keep in mind the office is only open until 5pm during the week. If you have any questions or concerns about requirements and induction feel free to email me. Induction will take place on January 28th at noon in the Student Union Theater, so please mark your calendars if you are a pending member. More information will be sent out to members who have completed their requirements in the new few weeks.

Clothing orders – Due to a pricing conflict, we are suspending putting in the clothing order through until next semester. Orders can still be placed, using the printable order form, up to a week after inductions. For those of you who wish to withdraw your order, please email Jen at j484m@buffalo.edu, or with any further questions.
