You’re waiting for a train…and you have nothing to read! What better reading material is there than philosophical journals written by people just like YOU (though not exactly!)? Procure your copy of this wonderful journal, Pilosopo Tasyo, Vol. 1, 2011-2012 for free! That’s right! For FREE (not the philosophical state!)! ‘Cause it’s not about the money (money, money), it’s all about the WISDOM (wisdom wisdom)!

Be in Berchmans 208 this Friday, September 23, at 4:30-6:00 in the afternoon and experience a philosophical EXPLOSION!!! as we hear the authors themselves READ OUT LOUD, WITH FEELINGS, their brilliant articles. And that’s not all! We’ll have food, performances, and all types of joyful ballyhoo! Also, the next set of Pilosopo Tasyo officers will be unveiled, so that you’ll know who to avoid when shirking responsibilities!

(Just kidding. Please involve yourself in this as much as possible. We’re on the ADMU Wikipedia page, and we’re not even accredited. SO BADAS*!)

The org worked really hard on this issue, so let’s show our support and respect by ACTUALLY SHOWING UP! 

So what are you waiting for (aside from the date itself)? GET EXCITED, and on Friday, GET GOING!

The Big Lebowski! This Friday (September 16), at 4:30-7:30pm, head on down to Soc Sci Bldg. Conference Room No. 5 and watch one of the GREATEST MOVIES OF ALL TIME!

With a talk by the honorable Mr. Plep Junginger. “Shut the f*** up, Donnie”, and attend!

See you this Friday! Be dudes, and abide!
