5:00-6:30pm<\/span><\/span>, Main College Building, c416<\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n

We’re having a Town Hall meeting to facilitate discussion between the students and faculty about the archives track. Similar to LISSA’s open house last fall, the goal of this meeting is to open lines of communication to discuss the areas we are doing well in and those that need improvement.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This event is intended to help us grow as a community to make positive changes for current and future members of the program. This is a great opportunity to connect with other students and faculty, and to help improve the archives program. Pizza and refreshments will be served!<\/p>\n

Ask archives faculty any questions you have at the event or submit them anonymously now at: https:\/\/goo.gl\/XFHQ1x<\/a><\/p>\n

The event will also be live-tweeted on our Twitter (@SCoSAA) so that even if you can’t make it, you can follow along and tweet in any questions you may have.<\/p>\n
