Alternative to Chapels and Convos: Jeff, Chad and Reuben are to write a proposal for an alternative activity with credit at the same time as convos and chapels.

CPT: Christian Peacemakers Team is currently doing a 700 hour fast to protest 700 Palestinian houses that are going to be bulldozed to make way for settlements and roads. As of today we have started a rotating fast to support them, with one person fasting each day. We will also write letters and raise awareness on campus. Talk to Chad to signup to fast for a day! This fast will last until March 30th. -Aaron-
