The Community Service Committee will be donating children’s books and pajamas to the Pajama Project. Join us by dropping off your book and pajama donations, or having them shipped directly to the various drop off locations. If you email a picture of you dropping off your donation we will share it at the party.
Thank you to Thomson Reuters for generously sponsoring the holiday party!
Join us for a discussion of new approaches, tips, tricks to teaching, learning and working in the virtual workplace. The discussion will be moderated by Gayle Lynn-Nelson and Johanna Bizub.
