moved the pledges to the list of brothers on the mailing list.

a [expletive deleted] mess. That's it, I'm hosed.

Historian (Ari): Pictures have been taken. This Saturday there will
be a project where we will put pictures onto walls. Technique
might also come by; have them call me if they arrive beforehand.
Some photos didn't come out, but it's not anything obscene, just
my thumb.
Advisory Comm. Chair (Ellen): Our section is in the process of
forming an advisory council. It's kind of tentative, but there
will definitely be a meeting on the first weekend in February [a
Saturday?].
