Wed 7-9pm
UW Campus
Parrington Hall, Room 106
The start of school is fast approaching, So we've pushed the Study group originally scheduled for today back a week to give us time to make some important decisions about our organizing on campus in the fall. We'll spend the bulk of the meeting discussing Fall UW plans - how do we want to organize, will we have a separate student branch etc. And then we'll have a 30 min section on holding the Northwest Socialist Conference in Portland this year!
