Christian Bible Fellowship
Greetings, how was your first full week of classes? Hopefully they weren't too stressful. Did you have a chance to go out and enjoy some of God's creation?
I hope you are planning on attending FNF this Friday at 7:00 in the Lower Wedge. We would sure love to have you come by and spend some time with us. Or you can come to Tuesday Night Prayer, held in Founders at 9:30. Everyone's invited. Also, stay tuned for more information on Bible Studies.
"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and who ever lives and believes in me will never die." (John 11:25 NIV)
What was Jesus saying when he said this? Was he referring to our physical lives here on earth, or was he talking about a different type of life, your soul? When you believe in Jesus you will not die. Your body may die here on earth, but your soul will continue to live forever with Him in heaven. Listen to Jesus and believe in his teachings, and you can be assured that this eternal life will be yours.
Dance Club
Hello everybody, a little bit late but welcome back. Last term I was thinking that I could teach waltz to people who are going to perform and who are at the practice just to learn, but unfortunately that's impossible. So the Dance Club will at least have a small Ballroom Show at the International Dinner on 6th December.
Other than that we have Tango practices going on every Friday @4:30 in the Harrington Balcony. I'm and I think many other people are having fun at these practices. So why don't you stop by this week, too?!!
I'll see you then, take care. For more info send email dclub@wpi.edu. Ali...
Environmental Club (GAEA)
Thanks to everyone who has been coming to meetings. This week we'll be working on getting more people to recycle because Saturday is National Recycle Day. Then on Sunday we will be going to Heifer Farm to learn about some of their organic farming techniques. We are also planning a trip to a solar aquatic waste water treatment plant, where the natural cycles of plants and animals are used to clean the water.
Glee Club
Hey, Hosers. Did everyone enjoy the BU Weekend? I thought you would. Was the pahty up to par with the last one? How did Hebda fare with Seven women at once? I too wanted to put in my little disclaimer for the Not-So-Wells awards. Well, not really a disclaimer, but more like an explanation. Yeah, some of them were a little mean-spirited, but, THAT'S THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE, SO SUCK IT UP AND DEAL!!!!! But seriously, as Reynolds said, they're really meant in fun, and in the words of the immortal Dr. Johnny Fever, "If it ain't offensive, it AIN'T FUNNY."
Now that the BU weekend is over, you get a little break from concerts for a month, then its back in the swing with the Xmas concert with Regis with it's "Goodwill to US's", "Praise to IT'S name's", and "Away in a WONGER's", so I hope you're all brushing up on your political correctness, and non-gender specific speech. Over + out, and see Y'ALL tonight at 6:30.
Newman Club
This week, our president, Chris Welch, will start our Christmas Tree giving program. He has been in touch with Youville House and has the first name and age of the children there. Youville House is a place in Worcester for battered women and their children. Chris can give you a tag with the name and age of one of the children. We ask you to buy a small gift (within ten and fifteen dollars - no more) wrap it up and put the tag on the gift. We will collect the gifts of week of December 7th or at our annual Christmas Mass, which this year will be on Sunday, December 14th at 10:00 PM in Alden.
Our Prayer/Discussion group meets every Wednesday night at 7:00 PM in the Religious Center. This year we are using the Vision 2000 series as our starting reference. Please feel free to join us.
A week from Friday, November 21 , we are have a November Video and Pasta night. Maureen tells us that she and Joyann have the cooks all lined up and there will be plenty of pasta for everyone followed by a video which Chris is going to obtain. He needs advise on what you would like to see. So any ideas, feel free to e-mail him at matignon@wpi.edu. By the way, our video and pasta nights are open to everyone. You do not have to be a member of the Club to come and eat with us.
Science Fiction Society
This is not important. Do not read it. You have much better things to do.
Now that we have that out of the way, you all missed Anime Fest. It was last weekend and nobody showed up. Actually, you might have but I'm writing this before the Fest. Next Weekend: Science Fiction Society Gaming Weekend. This event is open to the entire campus. Dues paying members get free food. The Weekend starts Friday night and ends Sunday night in Goat's Head Conference room and Riley Commons (some of the time).
T-Shirts are still for sale. We need to get enough orders to send in for a batch of them. Contact Bruce at coxa@wpi.edu to order a shirt. Other stuff might have happened last week or may be happening next week, but your secretary has been too busy playing Final Fantasy 7 to figure any of it out.
The Bavarian Illuminati are responsible for MTV Grind.
Simple Harmonic Motion
Well, we got off yet another interesting week. While we still have a couple pieces to get "performance ready" things are moving along nicely. Remember that the next two weeks are going to be crazy as we prepare for Five o'Clock Shadow. And for those who are interested, we will be selling tickets in the Wedge or Mailroom sometime next week, so you can purchase your tix ahead of time to ensure that you'll have one of the best seats in the house for one of the best concerts to roll through WPI in quite some time, trust us, you won't want to miss it!! Keep an eye out for publicity with in a few days. Also, we hope that students and faculty alike will try to attend at least one of our Christmas concerts in December, in addition to the November 21st concert, and support our music. We love to sing, and promise you'll have a good time. See you at the concert!!! jay
Skeptical Chemists
Our first meeting for the term was last Wednesday in the largely unknown Student Lounge in the basement of Goddard Hall. I don't think that those Orange Twizzlers were at all naturally flavored OR colored. I'll have the experimental results in for the next meeting... No, you didn't miss painting the labs over break! We still need to buy the paint and go over Leanna's color schemes (!!!) It seems that examining the cadavers in the crime lab is unlikely, but we could still look down from the balcony...or maybe not. A field trip to Genzyme is in the works...depending on Matt's negotiations (who gets to drive the van?) Mary has all of our graduate school catalogs hoarded in GH06 and really doesn't want to give them up...Look out for our upcoming "Graduate School FAQ" seminar in December. A neutron goes into a bar and asks the bartender, "How much for a beer"? The bartender replies, "For you, no charge".... Interested or curious? Email skepchem@wpi.edu.
