Welcome Home!

Economics students, young and old, WELCOME BACK!

We hope you are all settled in and ready to study hard (read: party hard). We know from personal experience university life just isn't the same without great friends and a great time. We will however be holding some academic events from time to time and we strongly encourage you to come out to those as well!

You should probably join our Facebook Group if you haven't yet already. It will be the place where we post events and announcements! You can also meet some really awesome people in your classes and maybe make a friend or two. You can also connect with me directly on Twitter! All the links are along the right.

We hope you have a super fantastic year and also hope to see you at one or more of our events! We will leave you with this little quote, it's not meant to discourage you just be somewhat funny.

Brought to you by the UW Economics Society.
