STUDENT INFO
- Japan 2016 meeting on Wednesday at lunch in Room 72. Arigato!
- From the Library: Banned Books Week is an annual celebration that brings attention to the importance of protecting the freedom to read what we choose, even when works may be unorthodox or unpopular. In fact, many of our core literature books have been challenged in other communities. To learn more about why this freedom is so important, take part in the library’s Banned Books Week Contest. Come by the library to see the exhibit and visit bit.ly/BBWcontest to participate in the contest for a chance to win a $10 gift certificate of your choice. Both students and staff are welcome to participate.
