CSR Newsletter: Week of July 16-22
Welcome, Case Class of 2011 and CCLCM Class of 2012!
We hope you are enjoying your first week here! There's a lot to take in, but you'll get into the groove of things in no time. As many of you are already aware, the Committee of Student Representatives (CSR) is essentially the student government at Case. We serve as a liaison between students and administration, organize community service and social events, fund many of the student organizations at Case, and much more. This weekly newsletter (which usually comes out on Sunday evenings) is a way to list and compile the major events that are occurring each week at school, at the Cleveland hospitals and on the Case campus. It is also a forum for announcements (please send to apj10@case.edu) and birthday listings (and for the new students, we will be adding your names and birthdays in very soon!). As listed in the upcoming events section below, we will be holding an activities fair on Friday, August 10, where student organizations will have information on what they do and how you can participate. We strongly encourage you to join several groups and get involved with the Cleveland community! For more information, see: casemed.case.edu/csr or email apj10@case.edu . Thanks and good luck!
Sincerely,
Anandhi Jeyabalan
President, CSR

Joke of the Week :-D
A man goes to the doctor and says to the doctor:
"It hurts when I press here" (pressing his side)
"And when I press here" (pressing the other side)
"And here" (his leg)
"And here, here and here" (his other leg, and both arms)
So the doctor examined him all over and finally discovered what was wrong... "You've got a broken finger!
This joke was obtained from: http://www.geocities.com/medicaljokes/#humor . If you can do better, please send me your best joke at apj10@case.edu!
Please send announcements to apj10@case.edu.
