Lunatic Update!
It's been 6 months since we wrapped up the Cornell Lunatic Walk-a-thon to End Walk-a-thons, raising more than $11,000!
The Lunatic published its fall 2016 issue a bit late in January (thanks to a snafu with University funding) and the Spring 2017 issue came out in May (thanks to the funds we raised)!
You can see both issues at <http://cornelllunatic.com/?page_id=192> Just click on the covers to download the PDFs.
With the money we raised, we'll be doubling the Lunatic's budget... so we'll be seeing greater distribution and bigger issues this coming academic year!
Thanks again for all your support!
Best,
Joey Green '80
