Brown Bag Lunches w/ the UHP

We’re trying something new this semester: Brown Bag Lunches with the UHP!
Any staff, faculty, and students in the UHP are welcome to come join us for lunch in the UHP club room this Thursday (2/7/13) at noon.  Remember though, it’s bring your own lunch!
The concept is simple: we’re having lunch.  Have lunch with us!  We’ll chat. Maybe about UHP stuff, maybe about JJ Abrams and Star Wars, maybe about the pros and cons of making your own yogurt and mustards, maybe about existential angst. You know, whatever.  It’s lunch.  We’re shooting to do these regularly on the first Thursdays of the month, but check our events calendar (or add it right into your own calendar) to make sure we’re still on.
Remember this is BYOB — Bring Your Own Brown-Bag (with food in it.) (That means bring your own lunch.) (If you don’t have your own lunch, you can’t have mine.) (I will not trade you my PB&J for your tuna fish. I will never trade you anything for your tuna fish.)

Lunch w/ the Director of the UHP is Full!

Our Lunch with the Director Friday, February 1st, 2013 at 12pm in the UHP Club Room at 714 21st St. is completely booked!  There’ll be another later this semester (and you can always join us at our brown-bag lunches for a casual bring-your-own-lunch event with faculty and staff).
In the meantime, you can check for open spots if anyone has cancelled!

Sandy's Stories: Art Exhibition [UHP Recommended Event]

Curator Roxanne Goldberg has shared a special invitation to UHP students for the exhibition Sandy’s Stories: An Epilogue of Hurricane Sandy.
Says Goldberg,

“I thought this powerful and dynamic exhibition would be of interest to UHP students and faculty, given its exploration of the ways in which individuals not only engage in intimate introspective exercises as they struggled to grapple with a spectacular event, but how they also come together in remarkable displays of primal support, shared strife, and universal affection.”

 The opening reception will be tomorrow, January 23 from 6:00-8:00 pm at GW’s Gallery 102.  For more information click the picture below.

National Christmas Tree w/ Prof. Mark Ralkowski

UHPers living in West Hall, join Prof. Mark Ralkowski for a small dinner and a trip to the national Christmas tree (and oversized menorah, and little train village) this Friday!
The plan is to meet at the UHP townhouse at 5:30, eat a meal that Prof. Ralkowski will provide, and then walk to the tree.
Just email Prof. Ralkowski at mralkow@gwu.edu no later than Friday morning so that there’ll be sure to be enough food for you.
In anticipation, you might want to watch this video on repeat.  Seeing a tree is pretty exciting.  (Watch out for one and a half swear words.)
