On Tuesday, January 31st you are invited to participate in a poker
tournament at an alumni’s apartment in midtown. Get together with
your fellow classmates and Columbia alumni for a night of fun! Do you
think that your skills are up to par with our very own alumni? There’s only one
way to find out. Food and beverages will be served.

Keep this date in mind and when you return from break an email will
be sent out with a link for you to RSVP. There will be limited space, so
don’t forget to sign up next month!

:::::::::Bad Joke of the Week:::::::::

Joe decides to take his boss Phil to play 9 holes on their lunch.
While both men are playing excellent they are often held up by two
women in front of them moving at a very slow pace. Joe offers to
talk to the women and see if they can speed it up a bit. He gets
about half of the way there stops and jogs back.

His boss asks what the problem is. "Well one of those women is my
wife and the other my mistress," complained Joe. Phil just shook
his head at Joe and started toward the women determined to finish
his round of golf. Preparing to ask the ladies to speed up their
game, he too stopped short and turned around.

Joe asked "what's wrong?" It's a small, small world Joe, and you're
fired"

And one more – because it’s the holidays:
