Bar Review / Memphis Game / Lawlapalooza

Because Lawlapalooza is this Saturday, March 25th, there will be no bar review this week.

There will be plenty of appetizers and drinks (both alcoholic and non-alcoholic). For more details, check the flyers located around school.

Flaw Review - Flaw Review is being rescheduled to provide more time for skits to develop

The teachers also have the opportunity to return the favor and put on a skit of their own. More details can be seen by clicking the link to the right.
