Sunday, January 26th - The Super Bowl Bash
The Super Bowl Bash was again a great success.  Many people flocked to watch the game on the big screen, devoured the piles of pizza, and enjoyed themselves on the many activities the UC Down Under has to offer.  With this year's nail-biting Super Bowl and great activities the UC Down Under was the perfect place to be.  If you missed it this year, plan ahead for next year and invite your friends.

Tuesday, January 27th - General Interest Meeting
The MSA's first General Interest meeting was held today.  The theme for this night was Unity Through Diversity.  With the MSA being a multi-cultural, multi-perspective organization, it was the perfect theme.  An enlightening slideshow and scrumptious food made the event only that much more fun.  We hope that all those who attended enjoyed themselves and learned what the MSA is all about.
