If you have an interest in literature, or just like participating in events with your English department, give LoCoLitSo a try. The only prerequisite to join or become an officer is interest and enthusiasm— no hidden fees or obligations. Past events have included Scrabble Nights, Poetry and Pizza, and Spelling Bees to raise money for a worthy cause, sponsorship of faculty debates, and tours of area used bookstores.
