Our discussion night will be Wed and will be held at The Toad on Osborne. The discussion group will start around 8pm. At around 10 the U of M student association has their discussion group so those who would like to stay late can meet up with them and join their discussion.
Hope to see you all out there.

Uwphsa meeting Friday

There is another meeting this Friday Oct.9 12:30-1:30 room 3M67. I will be going to class rooms this week to invite students to the meeting, to sign up for the email list, join the discussion group and there will be pizza as an incentive. I hope everyone can make it out, this meeting will mostly be for newer members to meet and learn about what we do, I will also be interested in any ideas students have for projects that the association can put on or be involved with.

First general meeting

The first general meeting of the year will take place Monday, Sept.28 in room 3M65. I hope everyone that can make it will.

common room reshuffle

July 2009

It is with deep pleasure and satisfaction that the UWPhSA announces a grand reshuffling of the Common Room. Books, bookshelves and furniture have all been adjusted. More importantly, however, there is now a fully functioning floor lamp. Please feel free to use if so inclined. It does wonders.
