All allies and supportive friends are welcome, too!

The club meets downstairs in room 145 in the music hallway. The FIRST meeting for SAGA this year will take place this Thursday, October 19th. Mark your calendars, make a plan, and bring a friend or two to see what we’re all about. Still not sure if SAGA is for you?
