The Oncology Club will be having a meeting this TUESDAY (Feb. 9) at NOON in Room 105. We will be having elections, so if you are interested in a position, email me at cassandra.edwards@lmunet.edu. Thanks!
Alright ladies and gentlemen, as promised – Women’s Health brings to you:
Go Red for Women week!
Starting tomorrow, WHMS will be selling t-shirts for only $5! We will also be selling the Go Red for Women “Red Dress” pins for $1! The sale ends Wednesday, so be sure to look for us at lunch or find me wandering around and I’ll get you hooked up!
Now, the t-shirts are the same as last year, so the 100% of the money raised from them will go to the American Heart Association! Sizes vary, and we’ll be selling them first come first serve. Make sure to get yours soon or your size may be sold out!
You’re probably saying to yourself, why do I need another t-shirt? I have plenty! You have 2 options:
Option 1:
It’s only $5, it’s for a good cause, AND you can wear it Friday (Feb 12) for DRESS DOWN DAY! Dr. Leo has graciously allowed us to dress down on Friday if you wear this t-shirt!
Option 2:
Dr. Leo has also graciously agreed to let you dress down Friday if you wear RED and make a donation! So, I will be outside the lecture halls before both the OMS-I and OMS-II lectures begin. If you don’t want to buy another t-shirt but want to dress down, choose this option!!
For you second years that already have a shirt, I hope that you would make a donation if you choose to wear your shirt or wear red to dress down on Friday.
Get good karma people! 
Hi Everyone!
As requested by classmates, we are selling tables again (informally- I will not be sitting outside the lecture halls). Attached are the 2 styles of tables. I purchased “the new ONE” and LOVE it. Please look at the attached flyer and once you decide on a table, please bring a check made payable to “LMU-DCOM UAAO” for the appropriate price. You can find me in A lab this week (or between the labs) for OMS-Is or I am in B lab for OMS-IIs. We would like to get tables ordered as soon as possible so you have until FRIDAY to get an order to me, January 29th 2010. You only have 3 days, so don’t forget! If you are worried about finding me to place your order, email me and I will set up a meeting place.
Thank you!

SOMA , in partnership with Better World Books, is having a book drive. Better World Books is committed to providing funds and books to sub-Saharan Africa, and to date has collected over 28 million books during book drives like ours. Not only does this provide more with the opportunity to read, these book drives have diverted more than 25 million pounds of books from landfills.
There is no need to buy anything, just bring in those textbooks and books that you no longer use. Clear out some space on your shelf. This drive will continue until January, so be sure and bring back books from home! Just drop the books in one of the drop boxes around school.
For more information you can visit www.betterworldbooks.com. Below are what is and isn’t acceptable for donation.
The A-list (Please put these books in one of the drop boxes)
