“Here’s to you, Dr. Atwater.”
 

 Join the Facebook Event and mark yourself as “Attending”:
you’ll have a chace to win a free shot glass!  We’ll choose
one winner per day, eight in all. 

The Mu Chi chapter of Alpha Phi Omega will be selling shot glasses undercover for the remainder of this week (until 11/07).  To track down places to buy shot glasses, visit our Twitter page.  Next week, we’ll be in the HUB (near the fitness center entrance) from 12-5PM, Monday through Friday (11/10-11/14). Shot glasses will sell for $4.

Proceeds will benefit Alpha Phi Omega, a national co-ed community service fraternity.  IUP’s Mu Chi chapter completes service projects not only in Indiana and surrounding areas, but also areas as far away as Pittsburgh.  The fraternity also participates in many national and global service efforts.
