[Imc-outreach] International Education Week

[faith swords]

I have been trying to think of ways that the IMC could participate in Intl 
Week. So far the only thing I can think of is this:

I seem to remember Sascha telling me at one point that the IMC itself (via 
him and Arun, I think) has an RSO branch. There is an RSO fair on one of 
the days during Intl Week, and I think it would be cool if we could be 
there. Sascha says that there is one more form that needs to be filled 
out, which he has, and will bring to Zach's party on NYE for Arun to sign.

I'll be at the IMC on Wednesday, but our IRS determination stuff is due on 
Friday, so I need to get that done so I won't be able to really be "at" 
the meeting.

If there are any events going on with international relevance, please let 
me know. We've listed the movie playing at the Art Theatre (Bad Education) 
at that point (it's Spanish) and I'm looking for more community stuff for 
folks to do.
