Club Corner
APO
Hello, OIsters, and congratulations to our new brothers. Well, I heard that the party went real well. Sorry I could not come, but I had to go to Conclave. Ok, I wanted to go to Conclave. It was fun, and somewhat informative. I also heard that the baseball game was fun. I hope to have more stuff later, cause right now I don't have details.
Anyways, time for the important stuff. Service, The Worcester Ecumenical Council needs our help the 18th to paint a stairwell. On the same day, there is also a project at the Animal Shelter helping with the cages. On April 20th, we are going to clean up a park for Worcester Park Clean-up. The group will meet at 8:45, so this is a good project for all the early birds. Some other stuff is left, but the term is ending soon. Questions to Smiley.
For Membership, there is the activities fair this Wednesday. If you signed up, please come at 12:00 to help setup. It is on the upper balcony of Harrington Auditorium. It should be fun, and it will allow us to get more people next year. Questions to Tim.
For Fellowship, well, Brian can always have a unplanned party. And there is plans for a party over the summer. Questions to Brian.
And remember, Brother Meeting, Monday, 6:30pm, GH227.
And congratulations to the new brothers.
Chinese Student Association
Well, well, well, what a week it was. First, we had the USML-2 crew visiting us on campus during a big, huge snowstorm. Then, we had the Cultural Festival inside Harrington without any CSA performance. What a week... but hopefully ya all enjoy watching the astronauts, and all the performances and exhibitions during both events. With all this going on in campus, how can we forget what our CSA floor hockey did last Tuesday. They had a game where they went into the third quarter just trailing by the score of 1:0. It was all due to the tough defense provided by our dear X Prez Eric L., our member of the year Yukiko I., and of course... Duh Manny (sorry..couldnt think of a title for ya). Then the light shine on us. Our uncle Zung, and Chow Chow joined the defense pushing our offense to explode. Our new SC broke out and score our first goal. It was followed by the awesome Man-Ching scoring two. So the score was 3:1 with CSA leading. *sigh* but then, our dumb goalie forgot that he can use his hand to stop the puck from going into the net. Letting the other team score two, with the last one with one minute left. However, our super charge Toledo wasn't going to let the game go into overtime. With 30 seconds left, he shot a goal in from nowhere, leaving the other team in shock and joy with all the CSA members on sight. What a game it was...so now the team is with a record of 2-2..way to go guys and gal. So wazup this week for CSA then. Well, If you go down to Alumni field tonight at 10, you will see our CSA soccer team playing their last regular season game. CSA got a really good team this year. So I am sure if you go down and cheer for them, they will play even better and you will sure enjoy the game. So... Go CSA! Ahh...and one more thing before I sign off. There is going to be a CSA end-of-the-year event coming soon to a WPI near you. So be prepare to have some fun sometime soon. Be well then.
Concert Band
Hey, everybody, good job at the Al Sacco celebration thing... everyone I talked to said that we sounded great! We're all proud of you.
Stuff coming up (and mostly all that's left for the end of the year) is the Closer Look program, tomorrow, the 17th. I KNOW that everyone who talked to Eric is going to be there, and that all of you that are giving tours in Alden are all set with John. If not, get in touch with them, they know what's going on.
No more rehearsals for concert band for the rest of the term, but wind ensemble and brass ensemble still have stuff coming up so watch your email for that. And go outside and play! It's beautiful out there! Happy Spring, and keep practicing.
Glee Club
Feel the strain yet? Freshman initiation will be Friday the 19th, time TBA. All you whelps better be there!!! Isn't apathy great though? It seems Bob passed on to Alan a lot more than just the book. If you're apathetic and you know it, clap your.... awwww, just don't do anything, someone else will do it. Banquet is coming up on the 27th... wonderful DAKA A. Make sure that Driscoll knows how many guests you are bringing. SHM: Start buckling down for the recording session, the last two things here on Wednesday, and the concert in Maine. No matter how rough the term gets, remember that we are: fratres en cantu!!! - Jeff
Newman Club
This coming Sunday, April 21st, we will be welcoming Most Rev. Daniel P. Reilly on our campus. Bishop Reilly will be installing the Newman Officers, Chairpersons and Senior Advisors at the 11:30 AM Mass. This is the Bishop's first visit among us as the Bishop of Worcester and all are invited to join us. After Mass there will be a cookout at the Religious Center. President Elect Ryan Abraham completed the appointments to his cabinet by appointing Kristen D. Magnifico as a senior advisor and Chrisopher P. Welsh as one of the Hospitality Chairpersons. A great time was had by all on the trip to Wright's Chicken Farm. The women who made the trip are still in awe about the amount of food a certain number of the guys were able to eat. The women concluded that those fellows you would not want to bring home to mother too often. John D claimed that the food was nothing like his home (center) cooking. Needless to say we did not vote on John's opinion as that might spoil his night. So thanks Becky ,Debbie, Joe, Susan and Tom for a great night and being great officers this year. Ryan and his cabinet have a lot to do to equal this past year.
Science Fiction Society
Yes, I know there was no club corner last week. It's not my fault - alien beings were sucking out my brains. Now that one of them has assumed my form, he'll be writing these things from now on....
Zkrajsak. Last week, under the lunar eclipse at 332:23:42 (7:10 pm earth time, nearly two earth minutes off the expected steller schedule), the puny earthlings of the organization known as the "sfs" held a sacrificial ritual on the altar in freeman plaza. The elders were appeased.

Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers
Saludos! Well, this week our main priorities have lied in making sure that we have a SMOOTH transition from the old e-board into the new. I have still not written about the freakin' conference which was excellent, thanks to all those that supported us. We are gearing ourselves up to make sure that we have a very stable foundation for all generations to come after us in SHPE-WPI and so that we could serve members of SHPE to the best of our abilities. We will be doing a lot of work this summer so if you are going to be around let me know because I know I will be. SHPE is going to be the BOMB and we are looking to be the most improved chapter in the nation. You membership in the next year is going to be very interesting and is going to involve community, purpose, networking and exposure. These are key themes in our campaign to become the best. The only way to make SHPE-WPI and WPI a better community and chapter is to play a role in it. If you want to be active let us know, you will only get out what you put in. One more thing, we will be working on is trying to make more people aware that SHPE is NOT JUST for Hispanics. I wish people would understand that you don't have to travel half way down the earth to find out about Hispanic Culture.
On May 5th, La ROKABANDA will be at Aries NightClub.

Women's Crew
Hi everyone!! Long time no article...I know, I'm a slacker but not rowing, right(?)!!! Well, after winter workouts, lets talk results! We obviously scared mass maritime academy into not showing and jumped into crews up to our own caliber! The first race was against URI, Coast Guard, the Cross, and that W-team that smoked everyone. We fared well and finished with a 7:45.57, way to go varsity!The following weekend our novices got to show their stuff and all fared well. Varsity took 10 seconds off their last week's time and novice showed that they were a team to be watched out for!! Well, barring any more snow WPI women's crew will kick some butt on the good old lake this spring. Who knew that 2000m was such a long way??? Look for elections next week and keep up the psyche!! crew rules
