新年快乐! Happy Chinese New Year! The CASA board of officers would like to wish everyone a year full of health, happiness, prosperity, good luck, and success. Family, friends, even strangers, whoever you're celebrating with, we hope you're enjoying your time and get ready for a year full of excitement and vitality as fitting of the Year of the Horse.

1. CASA Spring Big/Little Application

Did you not get Big/Little in the Fall? Or are you simply new to CASA? Either way, consider signing up for our Big/Little program. It is a mentorship program that allows you to help or be helped (by) another student with the transition to UF, from academics to social involvement. From the testimony of our members, it is a very useful program that has allowed people to form meaningful relationships, what they call "a family away from home." If this is something that interest you, please consider signing up for a Big or Little this semester. The deadline for application is Wednesday, Feb. 12 at 11:59 PM.
