The new incoming CGO FIG members, the 19s, have arrived on campus and they are settling in nicely. We had a busy Week of Welcome. We did our usual  fun CGO inaugural activities ; cake decorating and  watching the movie “The Three Kings”.  Please note that Shaul was very objective in his judging of cake decorating skills. But we also had a rather more serious discussion about the summer assigned reading “The Sunflower” which I think we need to revisit later in the term.

On Saturday of WOW we introduced the 19s to the city of Eugene. We hiked up Skinner’s Butte so that they could see where the university was located in the wider Eugene area and then let the students loose at Eugene’s unique Saturday market.
