Hey friends!

Tonight is our first full improvisational comedy meeting of the semester! We hope to see you all at 8pm in Humanities 113. No prior improv experience is needed. Come learn some improv, have fun, and hang out with some Sketchy Characters!

Also, today, our Marketing Director, Danny Drexel is celebrating his birthday! Danny is definitely the best member we have ever had. It's baffling how amazing he is. His jokes are the funniest we have ever heard. And DAYUMMM he is so gorgeous! So make sure to wish him a happy birthday!

(This post was definitely not written by Danny. He is too humble. He could never write this.....well, not all of it.....okay, maybe he wrote a majority of it.....there's a chance every word is his.....but I'm sure someone else helped. I mean, maybe at least with a punctuation mark? But YEAH definitely not Danny)

See ya at the meeting!
