UPDATE: Sorry, there are people Mehta asked me to see before I posted this…below is the update.

Critiques (especially if you were at Glenbard West) would be useful but not the be all end all of life. This is the time of the year where decisions for regional reps are being made…

…radio people, stop saying weird words! DEC – no more major changes to your topics, go for performance only at this point. Josh (and the rest of Info for that matter) I do not want to hear or read about any memory flubs. Y’all had two weeks to memorize and rememorize!

Roshni (Radio 2)
Emily (Dec 2)
Alex (Imp 2)
Diti (PR 2)

As we look to February, we’ve made several roster changes that affect a lot of team members. Please look at the revised list — double check which event(s) you are in — and contact Mehta if you have questions!

If anyone is interested, here is information on a scholarship opportunity that involves writing/delivering a speech — and it’s in Aurora.

I don’t have any more information, but there is a contact email address in the document.

That is all.
