Help for Haiti

As you all know, Haiti has undertaken an unfortunate event and are in need of help more than ever.
You can help by donating to the Red Cross to assist the relief effort. Contribute online to the Red Cross, or donate $10 to be charged to your cell phone bill by texting "Haiti" to "9099". You can find more ways to help through the Center for International Disaster Information.

Families of Americans living Haiti are encouraged to contact the State Department at 888.407.4747.

Thank You.

Week 10 Announcements!

PIZZA PARTY TOMORROW!!! Yes, yes, we know you're not 5 but our end of the quarter party will not happen due to technical and political issues, however we'd love to hear from you what you'd like to do for next quarter. So for the final club meeting we'll have food and drinks along with an amazing 3D movie screening.

Just a reminder the library poster contest ends this THURSDAY DEC. 10TH!!! So get those in pronto, so you can win an iPOD NANO/SHUFFLE. :)

The Cliche artwork piece is still happening so keep working on it! The gallery is still in talks and we will let you know as soon as we have it worked out. So try to have it done by the end of break.

Bring your AIGA STUDENT MEMBERSHIP MONEY TOMORROW!!! We still have plenty of people who haven't paid yet. We still need about 8 more of you to pay in order for us to receive the group discounted rate. If we don't have at least 20 people, we can't get the $50 rate!!! So tell all your friends/colleagues to get on this offer.

We also still need a new GDC logo so keep sending us your solutions.

We will see you all on Wednesday!!!
