All graduate students and faculty (and their respective spouses) the MAR and MED programs are invited to a gathering on Friday, November 11th at 6 PM in the Heritage Room of the Library.

Just go to the Library home page at http://www.etbu.edu/library/ and in the far right column you'll see a calendar and list of Jarrett Library events. Click on the link that says "Grad Student LIFT Party" (LIFT = Library Instruction For Tigers) and you'll see a registration form there. If you are bringing your spouse please register him or her separately so we can get an accurate count. We hope to see you on November 11th!
