OTIS Plans Trip
to Boston
by Tom GiUigan
Success of the care packages and the
Thanksgiving food drive has allowed the Or
ganization for Town Independent Students to
be able to take a trip to Boston, Massachusetts.
The club will be staying in Boston on March
18, 19, and 20. While there the club will
experience historical sites, a sporting event,
such as a Bruins or Celtics game, and a variety
of cultural enlightenments.
The club is planning on preparing care
packages for students once again this semes
ter. If you are interested in the club, have any
questions about off-campus living, or just need
a place to hang out, come and join in on one of
'our meetings. Meetings are held on Thursdays
at 12:45 p.m. in the lower commons.
