La Última y Nos Vamos

Look's like we made it folks. The end of the semester is here, and to celebrate our last Pepe meeting of Spring 2013, we will be hosting an event this Tuesday April 23rd from 6-8pm in CLA 1.302D in the Glickman Conference Center.

There will be free food, games, and great friends, so make sure you come out and see us for the last time before summer! 

Feel free to email us if you have any questions --> practicaplatica@gmail.com

Hope to see everyone there, and don't forget to invite a friend!

La Moda

If you are interested in fashion, a friend told me about this blog a couple of years ago that I thought would be interesting to share. It is a great resource to see and read about Spanish! The articles are also in both Spanish and English.

TUESDAY'S MEETING

Due to some unfortunate changes in the room reservations, we will NOT be meeting in Eastwood's Room 2.102 March 26th. However, because this is all last minute, we WILL be meeting in front of the room.

 If you are a new comer interested in checking us out, we can be found in the area in front of Starbucks in the Union at 6:30pm.

 From there we will be moving to another location. Please email us if you have any questions!
