Dear EALC Community,

By popular demand, we are seeking to revive our pre-pandemic tradition of holding an “EALC Monthly Mixer.” The idea behind the “mixer” is to provide a regular, low-key venue for EALC grad students and faculty to get together over a beverage (and, if you like, food). To accommodate our diverse department’s schedules and family obligations, we will alternate between an evening mixer at a nearby pub/restaurant and a daytime mixer in LCLB on the first Thursday of every month. 

To kick things off, we are holding our first Monthly Mixer at 6 pm on 3 October (tomorrow!) at Murphy’s (https://murphyspubuofi.com/). If you arrive before 6 pm, please grab a drink and occupy a few tables until others arrive. While there is no secret pot of money in EALC to buy everyone drinks or food tomorrow evening, this does mean you are free to invite friends and partners to join in what we hope will mark the return of our convivial tradition.

If you are unable to attend tomorrow’s mixer, below is the schedule for our Monthly Mixers this year. Hope to see many of you at this fun event!

 Rod
