Happy Sunday!
As a reminder, we will NOT be holding a meeting tomorrow. We wish you the best of luck with your final exams!
With that being said, we would like to thank you all for such an amazing semester! We were able to accomplish so much this fall, and we couldn't have done it without you. Thanks to you, we launched our Minutefund, hosted several successful fundraising and social events, held our annual WiB Etiquette Dinner, hosted many incredible speakers, and so much more.
We are looking forward to the spring semester and all of the exciting events that we have planned. Get ready for our Boston Networking Trip, fantastic general body meetings like "Personal Finance 101" and "Dress for Success," and maybe even a formal! We can't wait!
We wish you a happy and healthy holiday season and a relaxing winter break. See you in 2024!
