E-mail #9 - Sent November 16th, 2005 Visit us on the web: http://www.columbia.edu/cu/cc2008/ Hey all, Well, most importantly: COME TO MIDNIGHT MANIA! A ton of work all around has been put into this and this year its bigger and badder than ever. More giveaways, free cash to a lucky few, free t-shirts to the first 300 and throw-outs through out the entire night. Watch performances by Columbia groups including Raw Elementz, the Dance Team and the CU Cheerleaders and come wearing light blue to cheer on the Columbia University men and women’s basketball teams. On another note: Very classy t-shirts, designed by CCSC 2008’s very own Stephanie Shieh (who also designed the Midnight Mania t-shirts), will be here sometime next week. More details about purchasing next week. I’ll see you at Midnight Mania. -Isaac

You can help first years become acclimated with Columbia life and New York City through individualized mentor pairings! It's lots of fun and a real help for first year students. There are already 50 students participating but our first events were so successful that we want to open the program to as many as people as possible.
