Hello!
Don't forget about the EGSA hang out TONIGHT at Old Town, beginning at 6:30pm! We hope to see you there!

Hey y’all!

The Honor Pantry is officially STOCKED!

PLEASE PLEASE remember to put money in the cash drop box when you take a treat. This helps us keep it stocked so we have snacks all year round!

Don’t let fear keep you from achieving your goals!!!

Start today! (It doesn't have to be perfect.)

Consider showcasing some of your Graduate work at our conference this year! CFPs due on February 13!

Hello! The EGSA has restocked the honor pantry with delicious snacks and drinks.

In order for us to continue stocking the pantry, everyone must honor the honor system. Please pay for the snack or drink you take; additionally, please put American money in the box. Last semester, the board sadly learned that people were not paying for snacks, nor were they putting in American currency. The EGSA can’t use coins from Australia and Europe to buy snacks. The Board loves providing this service for the department, but it can only continue to do so if everyone honors the system.

We hope you’re all having a wonderful Spring semester!

—Your EGSA Board

Tomorrow! Make sure to come out to hear about hauntings on Halloween! Looking forward to hearing Dr. Jameela Dallis.
