Reunión y Despedida 2010... ¡Gracias!

A great big thank you to the parents, undergrads, incoming students who came out to Reunión y Despedida 2010! The event was a huge success and a lot of fun. It was great seeing old friends and meeting the incoming students. In a particularly special way, it was great to see parents (including my own!) who came out to support the students getting ready to start the fall semester on the Hilltop. Check out pictures of the event on Facebook and look out for a recap of the event on this blog pretty soon.

Carnitas (with a Vegetarian Option) and Good Company...

RSVPs for the first Reunión y Despedida happening in Los Angeles this Saturday, August 14. have been rolling in from near and far (alumni from Chicago, San Francisco and San Diego have RSVPed!) and we are excited for the contingent of alumni (young and old) and undergraduate students (just young) who have emailed us to say they are coming. So what can you expect at Reunión y Despedida? To start, we can promise some good, home-cooked food. This is a family-friendly event. Family members of the alumni on the organizing committee are making a great spread (both vegetarian and otherwise). Next, we can promise great company. I can guarantee this because I've seen the RSVP list. We've got 30+ awesome Hoyas attending. If you're an undergraduate, you'll have an opportunity to meet some fellow classmates you may never have met before. If you're starting your first semester on The Hilltop, this is your chance to begin plugging into the comunidad you can expect to meet on campus. Of course, this event wouldn't be possible without the donations made by alumni who are attending (hint, hint). If you haven't RSVPed, do so now by emailing georgetown.comunidad@gmail.com. If you've already RSVPed, I'll see you on Saturday!
