How to beat the post-spring break blues? Free food, of course!

Spring break is over [single tear]. But mother nature and CU have thrown you a bone in the form of beautiful weather and ample free food. Here are some of the best bets for this week:

First Descents Club CU Meeting
If free food isn't enough to get you out of the house, how about a Cosmo's 2008 bachelor of the year and an opportunity to do good in the great outdoors?

When? Monday, March 29, 7 pm
Where? UMC Room 415, CU Campus
What? Seriously, look at this guy. I hear his name is Brad Ludden. I also hear that, in addition to being deemed "sexy" by a popular ladymag, he also helps cancer survivors by taking them on kayaking trips and other adventures. I also hear that there will be free food at this organizational meeting.


Culture Sip: Afro-Brazilian Culture
What does Brazil taste like? I don't know, but I really want to find out...
When? Thursday, April 1, 2 pm
Where? Dennis Small Cultural Center, UMC Room 457, CU Campus
What? The CU Capoeira Angola Club will be performing (that's fighting + dancing + music, yo!) and serving up some Brazilian treats. Yum!



BONUS: Stealth Free Food Opportunity -- Aerospace Engineering Sciences - K.D. Wood Colloquium, "Design Assessment on Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter's 4th Anniversary at Mars," presentation by Jim Chapel of Lockheed Martin Space Systems"

There's no free food advertised, but this colloquium is at noon, and we all know that the aerospace engineering department has more money than the j-school...
When? Wednesday, March 31, 12 pm
Where? Bechtel Collaboratory, Discovery Learning Center, 1095 Regent Drive, CU Campus
What? The location alone is enough to peak my interest...there's really a room called a "collaboratory" at CU? Yes, there is. And in that room you can learn how one designs a satellite that collects imagery of Mars down to a 30 cm resolution. Keep your ears peeled for sexy keywords aerobraking and "orbit insertion".
