Hello CMU Students,
Since September we have been posting the Daily online in order to help students keep informed, especially commuters. Because the Daily Online is working successfully, we will no longer be posting CMU events on the blog. Please check the Daily Online for academic schedules (class cancellations), the schedule for chapels and forums, student events etc. It is a great resource, please check it often!
