*********UPDATE*********
Hello again fellow Psi Beta mates!
Since all colleges will be closed next Friday we have decided on a new and fun place to meet up. We will be holding our meeting at Amelies French Bakery off North Davidson Street. It is a really cool place that has wonderful soups, sandwiches and salads along with the most delicious french desserts you will EVER taste!
Check out their Facebook link to see pics of food and directions on how to get there at http://www.facebook.com/#!/AmeliesFrenchBakery and again, we will be meeting at the Amelies on North Davidson Street location at the same time 10:00am-12:00PM. If you have a GPS just plug in the address and it will take you right there, otherwise Mapquest it from where you are leaving from and it will do the trick:)
It will be a wonderful opportunity to get together with the stress of school over and plan some fun events for the summer. I would really love to see as many members make this one as possible, because this is all about YOU, and we want to hear what ideas you have for Psi Beta and what psychology related events we can plan and explore together!
Good luck to all finishing up finals week!
Sincerely,
Monica Dyer
Psi Beta President
