Neither friendly, nor in your neighbourhood!

Well, okay, that subtitle may be entirely untrue. But with the amount of use "friendly neighbourhood" is getting these days, I feel like I need to stand out in some way.

Now, with that said, we may begin. Hello Mathies! I'm Ian, the Vice President, Activities and Services of your Mathematics Society. What does that mean? I'm still not entirely sure, but I'll figure it out one of these days. Probably right when my term ends.

But I digress. We are already underway planning some awesome events for this term, including Pints With Profs, and the annual MathSoc Charity Ball which will be on November 20th. Also, we have weekly board games nights this term every Tuesday at 6:30 in the Comfy Lounge, and weekly Movie Nights on a night that has not been picked as of press time! However, to find out all about these wonderful events and the other great things MathSoc does, check out our website http://mathsoc.uwaterloo.ca/, which now features an events calendar. The website is also where you go to sign out a locker, check out the exam bank, or find more info about how to be involved.

If you have any complaints, ideas, suggestions, or whatever else, feel free to email me or stop by the MathSoc Office, MC 3038, to talk to me in person. Over the last week, I think I've spent more time there than at home. And of course, there are lots of other reasons to stop by the MathSoc Office. We have cheap photocopiers, an excellent selection of text books and board games which you can borrow, and some pretty sweet novelties for sale.
