BSA Programs
BSA will have its third general body meeting, "Owning Duke: Race, Residence, and Resources" on Monday, November 24th at 7:00 pm in the Mary Lou Williams Center. We are often told to take ownership of our Duke experience. At this meeting, we will discuss what this actually means and how we are currently carrying this out. We will participate in small group discussions about engaging in OUR university and its resources. YOUR PARTICIPATION IS IMPORTANT IN ORDER TO GUIDE BSA'S WORK TO MAKE DUKE A BETTER PLACE FOR YOU.

BSA's Academic Resource Guide, compiled by BSA's Academic Affairs Division, is now available in the BSA Office. Make sure to stop by and pick up this valuable information about free resources at Duke to help you throughout your college career.

Have you enjoyed BSA programming and events this year and would like to get more involved in the organization??  If so, you should strongly consider running for a position within BSA during BSA Elections 2009. Elections will be held in early February 2009 so start thinking about preparing for leadership positions!! More information about election applications and procedures will be presented closer to the date.
