I hope everyone has had the opportunity to get some rest. We have rescheduled our *General Body Meeting to this Thursday *(02/29) at 7 PM in *Wilson Pharmacy 120 *(different location!).

This is also the last opportunity to turn in donations for the *City of Refuge deodorant drive* (3 sticks = 1 point, 3 point cap per semester). We would love to see you there!
In light of recent events, we have *CANCELED* tonight's General Body Meeting.

Hi everyone, There was a mistake in my email and the graphic - the blood drive on Thursday is at Tate student Center! It should have said that in the sign up for donating and volunteering, but in case you missed that, I wanted to make sure everyone was informed on where to go. Thank you!
This email is a reminder of our first blood drive of the semester with UGA Red Cross this Thursday, February 15th 11:30-4:30 at Memorial Hall! The American Red Cross has declared a national blood shortage, so it is so important that we get people to donate blood and save lives! If you donate, you will receive 2 points, and if you volunteer or work at the tables, you will receive 1 point. ***If you’ve donated recently, you CANNOT donate within 56 DAYS of your last time donating blood!!*** I have loved seeing AMSA’s involvement in these blood drives,
Happy Monday! This week and next week, we will be having *Exec Takeovers* each day on our Instagram story! This is a glimpse into our "day in our lives" and the responsibilities of each position.

Thank you for coming to our first GBM of the semester!

Our last *General Body Meeting is TONIGHT (11/30) at 7 PM* in Pharmacy South 101! Join us as we wrap the semester up and hear about what is left this semester + what is to come! As always, come early for dinner – our members voted for Cane's for this last meeting, so we'll be having Cane's for this GBM (there will be vegetarian alternatives too).
I just wanted to forward information sent to us that the *AU/UGA Medical Partnership's Teaching Clinics* are accepting undergrads for the upcoming semester! This is an INCREDIBLE opportunity to work alongside doctors and medical students from the Athens medical campus, gain clinical/volunteering experience, and give back to the community.

I have some reminders about the second half of homecoming week.
Remember homecoming events are simple ways to get involved with UGA and get points for AMSA towards your membership and in the Spirit of Homecoming competition. Don’t forget - it’s already November, and you need *10 points* to be considered an active AMSA member per semester.
Next Wednesday, November 8th, at 7:00-8:30 PM we will have our November social event, a holiday potluck!! I want everyone to be able to bring their favorite holiday (or non-holiday) food item that reminds them of this season or your traditions or just your favorite meal! This is a great opportunity to meet more members and be able to learn more about other people and what reminds them of the holiday season. I really want to see a higher attendance for this event because the attendees will be bringing food, but I will also provide food that everyone
We have a few events lined up this week, and most of them are involved with *UGA's Homecoming Week*!
