Welcome back to UMass! We hope everybody had a restful, stress-free break back home.

We welcome our first semester with Alex Cooper as the acting President of our SAME chapter. Over the past year, we were able to grow under the guidance of AJ Frere, who left us in a great position to continue gaining momentum as we enter our 5th semester on campus.

While last semester focused primarily on career building, this semester is going to be slightly different. Our efforts will be focused on site visits, public outreach, and growing the general body of our chapter! We are currently working on a few events which aim to increase awareness for SAME at UMass, while also giving back to veterans in the community.

More importantly, our first chapter meeting of the semester will be:

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11TH @ 1800 hrs (6 PM)
KELLOGG CONFERENCE ROOM - ELAB 2
(** Note the location change **)

There will be WINGS OVER AMHERST!

We hope to see you all there and look forward to outlining all of the awesome plans we have for the semester!
