[Campus-columbia-staff] planning an event for next semester

Sun Sep 15 19:56:27 UTC 2013

Excellent! We'll take care of publicity and such for the most part. Just
wanted to check to see if y'all had anything particular to this event.

I'll check in again a couple days before we start marketing in earnest—I
wish you luck with the events happening between now and then!
