Its going to be a great night at the Sci-Fi with The Sam Project bringing more instruments than they have EVER brought to any other show including keyboard, uke, cajon, guitars, harmonica's and more. Also performing is Infidelity, which I can best describe as Paramore meets Garbage! Andy Kohnen, who is an awesome acoustic songwriter and expressionist and has a hint of Death Cab for Cutie in his style and Justin Church who is an great song writers with awesome Charisma and always entertaining to watch! The show will be hosted by Comedian Andrew and newcomer to the Sci-Fi Lindsay Tomlinson.

Dear CoOperators,

Since Labor Day 2004 I have sent my "gratuitous faculty advice" to the students of the WashU Coop. http://www.washucoop.com/node/374

Here is some more:

I exhort you co-op students to take the plunge and declare independence of quadrangle housing, but only after having incorporated as a real housing management cooperative, as we should have done long ago. This will take some time. In the meantime, we must look to our constant patrons in the university and especially to the historic preservationists in our neighborhood. We are all natural allies.

Students for Fair Trade is having a fair trade fundraiser/chocolate sale tomorrow from 11-2 in the Danforth University Center (Washington University in St Louis). We're selling dark, milk, crispy, toffee, and white chocolate bars. yum. 80% of the money will go to Plowsharing Crafts on the Loop (a non-profit supporting co-ops and craft businesses in the 3rd world), and 20% will go toward our group to pay for events for the rest of the semester (we're category 3).

anyway, if you're hungry or hormonal, please stop by
