April 22nd, pt. 2

I would like to clarify that our official sitting meditation will be from 1pm to 4pm in the Flint Village Community Building.

We also have the oppurtunity to sit in the morning. We have Room 250 in the Student Union reserved from 10am to 1pm. Jin or Okhee Kim will be present to facilitate the session.

The reason for our later sitting time is because April 22nd is Earth Day. You can learn about history of Earth Day athttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth_day .

There is a Campus Clean Up scheduled from 10:30am to 1pm on April 22nd. It meets in front of the Student Union and garbage bags and gloves are provided. The original email follows. Celebrate the earth by cleaning up a small part of our beautiful planet!


See you on Saturday,
Jonathan
