The doll won’t ship until next October.  (Don’t worry, I ordered a couple.)

But in the mean time …

Hey CSE,

In September the ACM loaned the Coke Closet $400 for the year. Last quarter we lost over $200 of that. The ACM has withdrawn the rest of their money, so the ACM Coke Closet is officially closed.

I know we like to have sodas and muffins available at all hours. We can restart the Coke Closet if we can pile together $400 to start it with. If 20 undergrads each contribute $20, we’ll have enough to buy food; after finals, whatever money is left will be divided between the contributors.

I’d like anybody interested to come to a Coke Closet information and discussion session this week. If you’d like to attend, please mark your availability on this Doodle poll.

I hope to see you there.
Ezra
