FALL QUARTER General Meetings

Hi all Stroke Forcers,

Welcome to the Fall Quarter! The Coordinators are very excited to have all of you guys back. This Quarter's first 2 general meetings will be on weeks 3 and 6 on Tuesdays 7-9pm. More specifically, the dates are 10/17 and 11/7. Location is TBD, but please plan accordingly.

We would like to give a special thanks to students that stayed over the summer or those who helped, even though they took the summer off. Please remember that those who took the summer off are on probation THIS QUARTER. You MUST fulfill all hours this quarter or you will be removed from the program.

In addition, if you were a new student during the summer, you MUST be ready to present by your first workshop. If not, you will be required to attend an additional presentation. You have been warned!

Besides that, we hope you all enjoyed your summer and we can't wait to see everyone's faces :).

Sincerely,
Stroke Force Coordinators
