T-Shirts
Remember those awesome Physics and Astronomy Department t-shirts from last year? Of course you do!! Every time you see a friend sporting one around the department, you STILL kick yourself for not getting one, right? Well, my in-need-of-a-sweet-physics-shirt friend, you are in LUCK. There are a FEW left in a variety of sizes for your purchasing pleasure, and they are being offered at a reduced price of $7, too! If you were smart and already purchased one, remember that Parent’s weekend is just around the corner. If you want your parents to love you a little more, why not surprise them with some adorable physics shirts?! C’mon, you know they would love it WAY more than that $20 “Carleton Parent” coffee cup from the bookstore.
Visit Mary Drew in Olin 331 A.S.A.P. to pick up your cool physics shirt for $7 while supplies last!!
