UMC Families

UMC would like to introduce UMC Families!

How does this work? If you are on your own - you will be paired as big/ little with another person who's also on his or her own. The two of you will then be linked to another big/little pair and become one family! If you are already in a big/little or buddy pair in your constituent group - you will be paired with another big/ little pair from another constituent group to be one family! If you are in a lineage-esque set-up - your lineage will be linked to another lineage to become one family! Each match-up will go on for the rest of the academic year. UMC will host a kickoff UMC Families event later this semester! We will also be brainstorming ways to help you guys organize your own small events! There is potential funding for this! Please sign-up before November 21st, 2012 (day before Thanksgiving). Families will be determined and announced by November 28th, our last GBM of the semester!
