The talk will again take place in ES 614 at 12. Chacmool will be providing coffee, tea, and snacks.

Trick or Eat with DSC Our department's Development Students for Change club is going trick or eating this halloween and invited our members to come along. Check it out. *Trick or Eat 2014*It's that time of year! Did you know that 1.7 million Canadian households experience food insecurity? That means that 4 million individuals, including 1.15 million children do not have access to adequate, nutritious and affordable food. To help address this, We'll be participating in Trick or Eat - where we'll be collecting food around campus for the local food bank and Meal Exchange, a national youth-led charity that works with students to alleviate hunger and achieve food security. Join Development Students for Change and make a difference! *Date*: October 31, 2014 *Time*: 4:45-5:15 p.m. Registration; 6 p.m. Trick or Eat donation canvassing *Place*: MacEwan Student Centre, University of Calgary Register by clicking "Join Team" at https://secure.e2rm.com/registrant/TeamFundraisingPage.aspx?teamID=579685&langPref=en-CA Once you're registered, get ready to dress up, and we hope to see you there! Thank you for your support! Cheers, DSC Exec 2, SALE SALE SALE In an effort to make our swag more affordable for everyone we have lowered our prices. No-Dinos T-shirts are now $10 Hoodies $25 Water Bottles $5 and Publications from previous years are a whopping $5 We also now accept Credit cards so you now have no excuse when you don't have cash in your wallet (except being a poor student). Thats all for now folks, -Chacmool From chacmool at ucalgary.ca Tue Oct 28 11:20:07 2014 From: chacmool at ucalgary.ca (Chacmool Archaeology Association) Date: Tue Oct 28 11:20:20 2014 Subject: [Chacmool-l] A Quick Note Message-ID: Hi all, We regret to inform you that this week's Anarky talk has been cancelled but there are some other exciting things to talk about. 1. Halloween costume Contest and games night Just a remind that this friday (31st) is our costume contest and games night. If neither of those things interest you at least come to see your chacmool execs dressed ridiculously. Word on the street is your president will be dressed as an overly glittery unicorn. The fun starts at 5pm in ES 859. There will be awesome prizes. Check out the poster for more info. 2.Call for conference topics. Many of you have probably seen this on the Facebook page but just in case. With the 47th Annual Archaeology Conference less than two weeks away, we are already searching for people who want to become the Chair(s) for next years conference. This is a position that requires a major commitment starting almost immediately after this upcoming conference. However, being the Chair of the 48th Annual Conference will look OUTSTANDING on any resume for jobs or graduate school down the road. If you have ideas on a topic for next years conference, you can get in contact with us or talk to any Archaeology faculty member (I know Dr. McCafferty has a few ideas if you don't have your own). Remember, this is your chance to get a step up over competition for Graduate school (it is not just GPA), or to show any employer that you have what it takes, and you can network like crazy with archaeologists from all over the world! Thats all for now! -Chacmool -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
