Welcome to the first installment of our weekly event roundup, “I Didn’t Know That Was Happening!” This is the first of most likely many posts where I, your humble author Curtis Yee, will be letting you guys know exactly what’s happening this week on campus.
I don’t know how many times I’ve heard someone say, “Aw man, if I had known about that I would have totally gone.” It’s my goal to make sure students are informed about all the different events happening on and around campus on a weekly basis. Obviously this list won’t be exhaustive, but we hope it gives you a good starting place. Stay classy San Diego.
