Do you have a hard time finding friends who are just as obsessed with Gilmore Girls as you are? Are you an unofficial Stars Hollow citizen, who sometimes justifies poptart consumption with the fact that Rory and Lorelai turned out fine? Then you should join The Gilmore Gang!

Hope to see you Thursday!

This is a "Meet and Greet" of sorts for the Co-ED Community Service Fraternity, Alpha Phi Omega. We will be "Speed Picnicking" (Speed Dating - without the dating part). We will be in small groups and the individuals will have a set amount of time to get to know the others by asking questions. If you are not good at coming up with "small talk" questions, we will provide some sample questions for you to get the conversation started! This is a great way to meet the members of our Co-ED fraternity and learn about some amazing ways to get involved in community service efforts both on and off campus. If you have any questions or need more details, please contact Jacob Knox, the VP of Membership & Recruitment. You can also check out our website by clicking the "More on this announcement" found below. We hope to see you there! Interested in getting email updates? Go to our website and sign-up!
