CHANUKAH PARTY SATURDAY NIGHT!

Chanukah starts Friday night, and the Grad Network's got you covered! 

Saturday night the Grad Network Presents...Chanukah party!  We'll be at the Irish Pub at 12th and Walnut from 9 pm-midnight.  $10 at the door gets you your first drink free, plus latkes, donuts, gelt, and more!

You can still get free Chanukah candles and menorahs by emailing info@jewishgrads.org.  And keep reading below for a list of other holiday gatherings throughout the week, including a potluck Shabbat dinner and salon discussion on Friday night.

Today is a very special opportunity to give back to the community at a Gift of Life bone marrow drive at Wharton until 4:00.  Stop by for a quick cheek swap and the possibility to save a life.

Two great lectures are taking place tomorrow evening at Penn: Dr. Art Caplan will be speaking about the ethics of medical research during the Holocaust, and Elliot Dorff will be speaking about views of homosexuality within Conservative Judaism. 

Wednesday evening is a chance to practice your Hebrew skills at Hebrew and Hummus.

Become a fan of the Grad Network's new facebook page!

Happy Chanukah, good luck with finals, and see you at the party on Saturday!
