Don't forget to get your STPP 'Complete the Puzzle' t-shirt before leaving town this summer! Your classmates designed this shirt in response to student demand, and we have lots left. If we don't sell them, STPP will have to absorb the cost, so please do drop by and pick one up.

Join us at Dominicks (512 Monroe Street) for the Year End Party to celebrate our graduating students and the end of the year!
