5. SUBMIT DOCUMENTS FOR WORD: 
My name is Jose Oscar del Rio and I am in charge of creating SHPE's Word, I'm going to gather quizzes and tests from SHPE's upperclassmen to upload them to SHPE's website/database to facilitate GT-SHPE member's method of study for classes.

Documents can be either sent to me via email (delrioj@gatech.edu) or given to me in person during general meetings for me to scan and upload them. If you are going to send them via email please try to have it in PDF format and subject the email "SHPE Word", it is not necessary but it will make things work a lot better. The format to save documents is the following:

Class Name(code name) -Professor - 'assignment/quiz/test' name- term (approximated)*
 *term is optional but very helpful
Example
MATH2403-ShuiNeeChow-quiz3Review-Fall2012

So SHPE members start gathering your old documents to make our database the best from Georgia Tech!!! The more documents you turn in, the more points you will get for SHPE's MOST ACTIVE MEMBER Scholarship tally count.
Let's have the best Word Database in Georgia Tech!!!!

Saludos,
José Oscar del Río

6. FASION FOR FOSTER CARE: 
Check out the attached flyer about Fashion for Foster Care that will take place this Sunday November 4th
