### Save the date

Kick off the start of the semester with us at our Fall Reception, September 15th, 4:00-6:00pm in the Boylston 3rd floor common area. Refreshments will be provided!

We here at Spell-Out HQ hope that everyone, both new and returning, had a lovely summer - and we look forward to seeing everyone back on campus soon. Watch this space for departmental news and upcoming events, and be sure to check out our socials.
