TIME OFF FROM STUDYING? CHECK OUT THESE EVENTS TO MAKE UP FOR THINGS YOU COULDN’T DO DURING MIDTERMS
Welcome to our February edition of the Thryllabus catalogue, our one-stop shop for all things event related on and around campus each month. Designed to help bring events to students’ attention and for clubs to get the word out there, the Thryllabus helps everyone get the most out of their events. Each listing is sorted by date, who sent it in, when, and where. This month includes an organic nomenclature bee by AXIA and Coda’s cancer research conference.
Like what you see? Give it a look! Each listing comes with all the necessary information to jump right in and enjoy the event. Remember, if you go, tell ‘em the Fulcrum sent ya! Wish something you were hosting was up on here? Contact us at the Fulcrum to be put on the monthly mailing list!
