GSA ♥s Éire Spring Social


A reminder:

GSA Spring Social: GSA s Éire This Friday (7-10pm) at Sláinte Pub (304 Bowery).

Yeah, that's right: free drinks for all GSAS students.

And if you're following March Madness, do not worry: there will be TVs with basketball on!

Getting there is pretty simple: Slainte is three blocks away from the 6 Train (Bleecker), the B, D Trains (Broadway-Lafayette), R, W Trains (Prince St.), or F, V Trains (2nd Ave - Lower East Side)
