After you vote, join us on Tuesday, November 4 starting at 8 p.m. in the Great Court, Main Building (32nd and Chestnut Streets).

The event will go on until all votes are counted and America’s next president is chosen. There will be great food, games and good conversation along with televisions tuned in to the election.

For more information, contact Marisa McStravick at mem82@drexel.edu.

Don’t forget…Tuesday, November 4 is Election Day. Your voice has never been louder!

For students living on campus, the polling location is Van Rensselaer Hall at 3320 Powelton Avenue–that’s for Philadelphia’s 24th Ward, 10th Division (24-10). This is a permanent change in the polling location for the registered voters living inside of 24-10.

Live off campus? Check out www.voteforchange.com or www.seventy.org to find your polling place.

Doors open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m. If you’re in line by 8 p.m. you’ll be allowed to vote, no matter how long it takes. Be sure to bring a student ID, license, or voter registration card.

Feel free to wear any McCain or Obama clothing or pins, but no electioneering–you can’t go around telling people who they should vote for or ask people who they are voting for. Basically, use common courtesy and respect those with opposing views!

If you have any further questions, please contact Drexel’s Office of Government and Community Relations at 215.895.2109.

The Drexel Democrats and Drexel Republicans will host a debate on the economy Wednesday, October 29 from 5 to 7 p.m. at Mitchell Auditorium, Bossone Research Enterprise Center (Market Street between 31st and 32nd Streets).

This is the second and final debate between the two organizations. Following the debate, students will be encouraged to ask questions and get involved.

The event is co-sponsored by Drexel Votes 2008.

Due to construction-related issues, the air circulation (HVAC) in Hagerty is not working properly. Crews are currently working to restore the air handlers in the building, but we do not have an estimated time of repair.

In the meantime, please be aware that the lower level especially is very warm. So be sure to dress comfortably and in layers! Thanks for your patience.

Introducing…the newest quiet study room! Room 127 on the first floor of Hagerty is now a quiet study room–featuring 12 new study carrels.

The glassed-in quiet room in the lower level also has 6 new carrels. And the second floor is a quiet study space as well.

Additionally, ear plugs are available at the Circulation Desk to make the quiet study rooms extra quiet.

Hope you enjoy!
