Meeting Schedule

The GASA group meets every Wednesdays at 1:15 p.m. in the Geography-Anthopology department office (300 Bailey Hall, Gorham Campus)

Fund Raisers

 *We're trying to raise money to help us attend the annual meetings and conferences. We need your help.

 * The department also has a bottle box for anyone to drop off bottles during classes located in the department office. If you wish to return the bottles yourself, please drop them off at Ron & Jan's Redemption Center on Rt. 35 in Standish between the intersections of Rts. 25 and 114. The GASA has an account there, so all you need to do is tell them the bottles are for USM's Geo-Anthro Student Association, and they will give 6 cents instead of 5 and 18 cents instead of 15 for wine and liquor bottles. They will record the amount on our card.
