GIFT BASKET / DECORATIVE CONTAINERS REQUEST
♦ Do you have empty holiday gift baskets or nice containers taking up space in your closets or cupboards?  Need to find a place to donate them?  Look no further.  In anticipation of the End of the Year Celebration (planning ahead) please bring them in and give them to Janis Juarez or Seda Markarova.  The Arts & Humanities Division will need them for the baskets we donate for the special raffle basket drawing every year.  This is what we are hoping to put together for the 2016 End of the Year Celebration.

♦ NewsTalk with Ana:  A Reading Skills Workshop for English Language Learners – Every Wednesday 4:30-5:30 in D204 from 1/20/16 to 3/16/16 NewsTalk is a workshop series for ELL students where they can learn different reading skills like paraphrasing and finding the main idea.  Together, we will then practice applying these skills to our news stories.  The students can also develop their speaking skills by contributing to the discussions as they share their thoughts and reactions to each story with the group.  Ask the instructors and/or tutors for more information!  Hope to see you there!
