Hi Dwight Hall!

Thank you to those of you who came out to the Cabinet meeting last night! We voted in three new member groups: Bookmarks, Fierce Advocates and Musical Cure.

The 2010 Dwight Hall Excomm announced its plans to update the old by-laws, revise the member group inventory, redo the website and restructure ExComm-membership relations. 

We also had a night of elections, and I'm excited to announce the 2011 Dwight Hall Executive Committee:

 

Co-Coordinators: Joseph Breen and Alexandra Brodsky

New Membership Coordinator: Nico Barawid

Finance Coordinator: Aaron Feuer

Public Relations Coordinator: Jennifer Friedmann

Education Network Liaison: Liane Membis

Congratulations!

 

Until next semester the 2010 ExComm will still be working hard for you, so please continue to give us feedback.

Joe
