Call for Photographers

Hello,

I seem to recall at an ASSU meeting a few months ago that a representative
from your course union mentioned that there were photographers interested in
gaining experience, and that interested clubs should contact you. If this is
the case, would you be able to put me in touch with a student photographer?
We are a U of T student organization hosting an event this coming weekend,
March 12-13, and part of the following week, March 16-18. For more
information, visit our website at www.utmodelparliament.org.

Best regards,

PARTY IN THE PEACOCK

"Party in the Peacock" is an event taking place in Robarts Library on the night of Friday, March 4th. As students, many of us frequently spend dreary hours and long nights within the library, always under the pretense of studying and academics. This event is designed to make students want to spend the night in the library by throwing a huge party to which all UofT students are invited.

The study space on the first and second floors will be transformed into a party venue for the duration of the night, and a significant amount of space has been reserved for the display student artwork. If you would like your work to be displayed at this event please reply to this message with images of the work including your name and title.
