Tabling Tomorrow!
February 13th from 11-3 on the first floor of the Union across from the
University Store
Stop by to help celebrate who you are! We love it when people bring baked goods
to the table to give out, or just stop by to show their LOVE for the QSU!!
We table because it is a great way to get our name out there to students who may
not know we exist (hard to believe right?)
