BONFIRE!!!!

Isadore Tarantino (izzy@ucsdpass.org)
Friday,
March 6th, 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Hey fellow
PASS members!!! What sounds better than sitting by a nice warm fire, toasting
marshmellows for your tasty smores, and snuggling up with your friends at
PASS's BONFIRE OF THE QUARTER!!! Come join us down at La Jolla Shores
and receive a social point as well!! Carpooling will be available and all help
with driving is appreiciated.
STUDY CRAM!!!
Coordinator:
Isadore Tarantino (izzy@ucsdpass.org)
Saturday,
March 14th, 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
Finals
are just a few days from
this date
and I am giving everyone the opportunity to earn social points for STUDYING!!
That’s right, you read it correctly, social points for studying! Come on down
to UCSD campus and get your studying on before those darn Finals. Enjoy a
great morning of cramming in those last few hours of reading inside the
Biomedical library at UCSD before the big tests. The great thing
about this social is that there will be other PASS members there that I bet are
even in those same horrible/dreadful classes that you are taking. This
means that is not only a social but a free group study session if needed.
Feel free to come and study for an hour, grab a bite to eat and head on back to
some more terrific studying!
PROJECTS
PREUSS TUTORING
Coordinator:
Lisa Sugimori (lsugimor@gmail.com)
Saturday, February 28th,
March 14th and 28th, 9:00 am - 11:00 am
The Preuss School,
a nationally recognized charter middle and high school located right here at
UCSD, is looking for tutors. It's a great and easy way to give back, meet some
wonderful and accomplished students and take a break from studying. We have
classes
from 6th grade to 12th grade. Preuss is located on the east side of
campus, next to Scripps
Hospital. You can use the
East Parking Shuttle, which will drop you off across the street from Preuss. Weekday tutoring is possible as well- contact Lisa
Sugimori for more information
NOTE: Before any tutoring you MUST go to
an orientation with Eva Mejia, the volunteer coordinator at Preuss School.
All orientations are at the BEGINNING of
each quarter- not in the middle or end of the quarter. There are NO orientations in the middle of
the quarter.
SPECIAL OLYMPICS POLAR PLUNGE
Coordinator: Teresa Bau (tbau@ucsd.edu)
Saturday, February 28th, 8:00 am – 11:00 am
This is Special Olympic's annual fundraiser event which is
soooooo much fun. Held at Oceanside Pier, this event involves plunging into the
Pacific Ocean early in the morning and staying
in for as long as you can handle the icy deliciousness! PASS got an award for
most plungers last year, so let's see if we can have the biggest team again
this year! You don't need to know how to swim....just slightly masochistic
enough (which pre-meds are anyway) to tolerate the cold! =)
ROOM VISITS
Coordinator:
Lindsy Godair (lgodair@ucsd.edu)
Saturday, February 28th, 1:30 pm - 3:00 pm
Sit
and make a new friend by visiting with an elderly member of the classical
residence in La Jolla. This project provides
the opportunity to spend time with and brighten the day of one of our city's
very own pearls of wisdom. Your day may even be brightened!
FEED THE HOMELESS (FULL!)
Coordinator: Phildrich Teh (pteh@ucsd.edu)
Sunday, March 1st, 3:00 pm – 7:00 pm

added to list of attendees, or sign up with the coordinator at a general body
meeting.
