Announcements:

Join Us at the Hydrophiles Chili Cook-Off!

Come out for the Hydrophiles first event of 2012. We're having a chili-cookoff at the OSU Orchard Community Center on January 11th, from 5 - 7:30pm! Prizes for the best meat and vegetarian chilis. Or, bring some other potluck dish. This will be a fun way for us to start the year together!

Find the Hydrophiles on Facebook:

Check out the new Hydrophiles Facebook page. This should prove to be a great resource for connecting current and former students for professional networking and social gatherings!

New Hydrophiles website under development:

In compliance with a new requirement for sponsored student organizations on campus, we are currently developing a new Hydrophiles website based on the Drupal development platform. This website was developed with another software client. We hope to launch the new site by the end of January 2012. In the interim, keep an eye on this announcement board for upcoming brown bag lunch gatherings, field trips, and professional development opportunities. Also, we're happy to hear any ideas you might have about how to make the new website a better resource for the Hydrophiles community. Thanks!

Please conact any of the new Hydrophiles officers (listed below) if you have any questions. Look forward to seeing you all on campus and at future Hydrophiles events!
