VPAS Sez

It's better to read this than to take notes in class on a Friday morning

So, I'm about to pass out and it's not even 11pm. I guess it either comes with being VPAS, or I just enjoy napping. School's gotten busy, and everyone is stressed out. What a better time than to enjoy the finer things in life, like candy! Come by the Exec office during my office hours (Monday, Wednesday 3:30 - 4:30), and I'll give you some or get you a cookie from the C&D (offer only valid to those whose names I don't know).

Tons of stuff has been happening this term so far, with tons more to come. Cove Night was a great success, Cotton Candy Day as well. This month, MathSoc wants to sell you candygrams for Valentine's Day (the booth goes up today!), give you a Super Smash Brothers Tournament (Feb. 18th), a dance at Waterloo Memorial (sometime between Feb. 22 - 28th), a ski trip to Blue Mountain (sometime near the end of Feb,) , and an Academy Awards contest. Yes, we're packing February with tons of stuff to battle your midterm blues.

As always, despite common belief, my directors can't do this alone. Come and help Mathsoc out by being a volunteer. Whether you're keeping the Mathsoc office open for all math students by holding an office hour to becoming a SWAT team member (a Mathsoc volunteer that comes out and helps at events), it's a great chance to meet new people, listen to some music and enjoy free food. If you're interested, please e-mail me at vpas@mathsoc.uwaterloo.ca. Or just show up to the Mathsoc Office (MC 3038), and sit down behind the desk and say "hi" to the person to beside you. They won't bite... hard.
