Time: Septmeber 8, 2007--5 PM;
Place: Rennebohm Park (Click for a map)
That's right, we broke out the special 24 point Snap ITC font for this event; we mean business, serious, BBQ business. Ring in the new school year with the beautiful people of AAE and special guest Lionel Richie.
***** Most Brand Newest: 9/2/07 Need help getting to the BBQ? Have a car, but want some company? If so, please contact Lindsay (lludwig@wisc.edu) and tell her if you need, or can provide, transportation (be sure to include where you will be coming from).
***** Brand Newest: 8/29/07 Sign-up Sheet for the BBQ is now posted on the door of the third floor lounge. Don't forget to show everyone how cool you are by signing up. Remember, the THC provides the meat (and "veggie" meat) and beer but relies on you to help with desserts, sides and salads.
****Even More Brand New: 8/22/07 Legendary Cattle Rancher and BBQ Master Tom Cox agrees to 'steer' the grill for THC BBQ MADNESS 2007. Tom is known for his peerless analysis of global agricultural policy, impressive research record, expert BBQ prowess, and for saving Christmas in Hogspit, Kansas in 1977.

The 2007 version of this famed annual rite of AAE passage was held in
the main lounge of the stately Pres House, on Library Mall, and was MCed
by loquacious THC President Van Butsic
butsic@wisc.edu. As always,
students, faculty and staff raised the bar for international
cooking by a graduate student (or a graduate student's significant
other) .

- March 22--The THC Ultimate Roshambo Tournament Happy Hour Experience...It's On!
Congratulations to THC Roshambo champion David Watts, who intimidated foolish Roshambo opponent into a unique Nash Equilibrium of humiliating defeat. Also, a big thank you to THC Roshambo Commissioner-In-Chief Hillary Caruthers, who presented (and fashioned) the championship trophy, and overcame enormous THC-executive-incompetence to make the event a success.
