PASA’s first Happy Hour of the semester was a hit! Thanks for all those who came out. PASA will be hosting another Happy Hour on Thursday, October 4 at 9pm—meet us at Legends Sports Lounge at 286 Lark Street. It boasts an absurd number of flat screen TVs (there are even TVs in the restrooms, so it must be a nice bar). It’s new, clean and has cheap food and drinks. Come and relax after class. See you there, Rockefeller. Warning: Parking is limited around Lark Street, so carpooling wouldn’t be a terrible idea.
Check out other goings-on at our College, our University and in our City. And be sure to visit our City Guide at www.pasarockefeller.wordpress.com for more events and resources!
RE: PASA soccer team
Due to the low response (3 people) for joining the PASA soccer team, we will be unable to field a team this semester. However, there are a couple of other options if you are still interested:
1. You can go to the UAlbany Intramural website and sign up as a free agent.
2. Contact Steve Weber, a friend of the Rockefeller College who is interested in fielding a team and is looking for some players. Contact him ASAP!!!
Good luck!
