Dear Ladies and Gentlemen of General Studies,

First off, the General Studies Student Council would like to extend the best

you find yourself going crazy and reciting your professor's lectures in your
sleep after putting in unspeakable hours of study time, take a breather and get
engaged in some of the upcoming events being hosted on campus. Also, if you ever
get curious about the planning of student events and current issues being
addressed by the GSSC on behalf of GS students, don't hesitate to stop by our
weekly meetings every Tuesday at 7:30pm on the 5th floor of Lerner, inside the
Satow Room. Once again, the best of luck to each and every one of you.
