ULABA X Patricio Navia

Goooooooood morning, ULABA!!!! *Cue dramatic entrance music.
We’re BACK, baby – a new semester, a fresh start, and yet… the same old violet-school suffering. Some of you are still in winter break denial (we see you, booking those flights to Miami), while others have already picked a new favorite library crying spot.
And although it’s a new year, a new month… and perhaps a new me… some things never change. Our second General Meeting is happening this Thursday at 12:30PM in Tisch Hall, UC-25 (same time, same place, same questionable life choices).
And yes, we’ll have free food for all you hungry children – so come for the snacks and stay for the vibes. I’ve got updates, opportunities, and jokes… so make sure to read on! See you real soon 💜
Professional Development
Now, let’s get down to the nitty gritty – this semester is incredibly important for our Sophomore and Junior members. We’ll have tons of networking and recruiting opportunities throughout the semester made specifically for you, so make sure you stay up to date on all ULABA happenings!
