Princeton Women's Network Second Wednesday Book Club 1/9 7-10 San Francisco, CA Amanda Whitehead '00
Gather to discuss books with area alumnae.

As of January, the PWN Book Club date will change to the SECOND WEDNESDAY of each month. This month's selection is Anna Karenina, by Leo Tolstoy. Please contact Amanda Whitehead '00 for more information on the meeting.

Each month we gather in a member's home or an area restaurant to eat, chat, and (usually) discuss that month's literary selection. The location changes from month to month so we can be welcoming to alumnae from all over the Bay Area, and books are chosen by consensus with those who show up! Recent selections have included both fiction and non-fiction, modern and classic, from "Uncle Tom's Cabin" to "The Botany of Desire", "The Virgin Suicides", and "Ender's Game". New participants are welcome all the time.

Date: Wednesday 1/9

Usher in the new year with the Ivy League Young Alum Mixer! Young Alums (20s/30s) of all Ivy League colleges and grad schools are encouraged to join us for another blow out drinks night at the elegantly remodeled Sake Lab, which is now called Horizon. Our last five events each drew over 300 Ivy Leaguers, and this one will be even bigger!

Welcome to Stanford and MIT who is joining us for the third time!!

In its continuing bid to be our permanent venue, the sleek, new lounge and restaurant, Horizon (www.horizonsf.com), is giving us exclusive use of the lounge, dedicated staff, and a DJ for free. They are also giving us a drink special for the night.

Since Horizon is doing so much for us, we would like to give them a fair estimate of attendance. Therefore, we ask that you please click "yes," "no," or "maybe." A high response rate also helps us keep our privileges with Evite (so even answering "no" or "maybe" helps!).

Spread the word to your Ivy League / Stanford / MIT friends.

No cover.

Horizon also serves food.

Brown, Columbia, Cornell, Dartmouth, Harvard, Penn, Princeton, Yale... and Stanford and MIT!

See you there!

Date: Friday 1/25
Time: 6-10
Location: Horizon, San Francisco
Address: 498 Broadway St. @ Kearny St.
