UW Economics Society Wishes You Good Luck!

It's that time again! On behalf of the Economics Society at the University of Waterloo, we want to wish you good luck on your exams!  Even though our hero, Keynes, thought education was a waste of time we paid good money for it!  @uWaterlooEcon will be tweeting encouraging quotes about hard work, perseverance, learning and personal growth to keep you going. There will also be a few interesting articles for your study break!

For those of you taking ECON 402 this term we feel your pain (aside: I myself couldn't handle the strain on my brain). For those taking ECON 311, we are sure you are regretting that choice.

If you aren't in Economics, that's OK. You will probably be coasting through your exams. Just kidding! In all seriousness, we are all screwed.

Have a fantastic break and see you in the Fall!

Pints & Profs

For our last event of the term we are going to Molly Blooms... with the profs!

The purpose for this event will be similar to that of our Prof. Mixer last term which was a huge success. Again, it is going to be a great way for students to meet and get to know their professors outside of a classroom environment.

This event is going to be held July 6th at 5pm at Molly Blooms Pub in the University Plaza.

This is going to be a casual drop by sort of event and we will provide some delicious pub snacks, the beer is your responsibility. Hope to see you all there!
