Hey Geographers,

This is the last listerv of the year, how bittersweet? Hard to think summer break is right around the corner with all this snow.. We have had a great time planning events and hanging out with all you lovely humans and hope you had fun too! Looking back at this year, we have really been through a lot together. Midterm season, soupe cafe runs, watching each others stuff in the GIC for said soupe cafe runs, or lunch breaks in the lounge. We had a hell of a time with you guys at the each mugs bar night, the apartment crawl and year end party. Wishing everyone good luck with exams and future endeavours! Have an amazing summer geographers.  

Best wishes,

The 2018-2019 MUGS Exec. Team 

Howdy,

Is March almost done already? A lot happened this month; Reading week, Bob Ross Paint Night, Pints Lines and Polygons, Alumni Panel... and the month isn't over yet. We still have the elections and the year end party to wrap up. What a crazy month. Big thanks to everyone who came out to our events this month. As always, it is a pleasure spending time with friends and taking those well deserved breaks from study. 

Sincerely,
MUGS exec. team
