We are just about halfway through the semester now, so take a break this Friday (March 2) and join EGSA at Welch Avenue for food and drinks. We’ve got a section reserved from 5-8, and we’ll plan to start arriving around 5:30. Hope to see you there!

Important mail service information

[Posted Mar 01, 2012]

Beginning Monday, March 5, the U.S. Postal Service will no longer deliver the mail to Heady Hall. As is the case with most of campus, ISU Postal & Parcel will bring the U.S. mail to our building along with the campus mail. As a result you should notice two changes. The mail will likely be delivered about an hour later, approximately 11:00 am. In addition, they will no longer process your stamped personal mail. You will need to take this to a U.S.P.S. box, the closest on campus being in the Memorial Union or in front of Kildee Hall.
