College-wide Meeting/Family Picnic
Friday, September 26, 3:00-4:30 p.m. and 4:30-6:30 p.m.:  The first College-wide meeting of the 2008-2009 year will take place, with introductions of new TT faculty and other staff, information about the College budget, a discussion of College goals, etc.  We may have a few door prizes at this meeting – but instead of as many as in the past, we will have a family picnic dinner following the meeting, with spouses/partners/friends and children most cordially invited to join us!  It will be a nice opportunity to informally socialize with colleagues across the College and perhaps meet some of the significant others in their lives.
