What's Coming Up at MacInsiders 
 
We are now thirteen days away from Welcome Week and counting!   w00t! 
 
 Many of us on the MacInsiders team are going to be involved in Welcome Week...we have two residence reps, a Campus Events Rep, one Faculty Planner, and IRC Rep, a Community Advisor (CA), a 'super hero in disguise'/MSU Office Clerk, and two Maroons reps!  We hope that if you see us on campus that you'll say hi!   And that doesn't include any of our other members, many of whom are also involved. 
 
There is a lot of new stuff coming up at MacInsiders before Welcome Week starts.  Here are some of our forthcoming articles: 
- First Year Survival Guide 
- Welcome Week Rep Survival Guide 
- Being a Vegetarian at McMaster 
- How to Make the Most Out of Your Meal Plan 
- Faculty Wars 
- The Differences Between High School and University 
- and many more!! 
 
We will be updating our page daily, if not more, between now and August 29th.  So check back often for all of our new content!  
 
 During Welcome Week we will be posting each day's schedule (for campus-wide events only; we can't list every residence and SOCS unfortunately), as well as updates for Welcome Week cup scores.   
 
During Welcome Week it will be hard for us to find the time to post new articles...for some of us our day will be starting on campus at 8am and not finishing until midnight or later...so please bear in mind that we may be a little bit lagging until September 8th or 9th.   Once we all catch up on our sleep there will be tons of new content!! 
 
Cheers, 
Your MacInsiders 2008-2009 Executive and Staff Team
