KELLOGG/NORTHWESTERN COMMUNITY
Last chance to be a part of Holiday Gift Drive!!!
This is the last week of our Holiday Gift Drive. If you found yourself with a lot to be thankful for this past week, we encourage you to participate. The Holiday Gift drive allows Kellogg students, JVs, faculty & staff to grant holiday wishes for local underprivileged children. We are very close to our goal of granting close to 200 wishes, with only 68 wishes left as of Monday this week!
Come by The Kellogg Cares Team/JV Club atrium table Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday 12:00-1:30pm this week to see what’s on the children’s wish list this year. Choose one wish that is special to you, buy a gift for only $25 and return the wrapped gift to the Jake by Dec. 4th. You will make a child's holiday season unforgettable!
Big heart, but little time? If you can't make it to the store to pick out your gift, this year you can still participate by donating a $25 check. Checks can be made out to Northwestern University with "Holiday Gift Drive" in the memo and dropped off by the table or in Rachel Ross's mailbox. There is also a venmo option available which you can e-mail directly about.

Sign Up for Winter Quater Improve Classes!
Are you curious about Improv? Have you heard about some great experiences from your Improvising friends? Or, like a few of us, are you experiencing serious Improv withdrawal now that classes for Fall Quarter are over? Sign up for classes in the Winter Quarter!!
Each quarter the Improv Club brings AMAZING instructors to teach 6 sessions of improv to Kellogg students. Our classes will begin the second week of Winter Quarter (January 14/15) and end a few weeks before finals. The 6 sessions, in total, cost $80 for new students and $70 for returning students who have taken improv at Kellogg in a previous quarter. Ready? Go! Here is the class Information:
Improv Essentials - Fridays: In Improv Essentials, you will learn the fundamentals of Improv through a variety of awesome Improv exercises. You will learn about how to tie what you learn in Improv to business and life in general (hint: you will learn to listen like never before). The class is full of amazing energy and you will make a whole new group of (fun) friends!
2:00 - 3:20pm, 3:30 - 4:50pm
Improv Performance Group* - Thursdays: The Improv Performance Group focuses on how to create performance ready pieces. During this 6 week course, you will work on different improv forms, scene work, character building etc, all while learning how it ties in to the business world. (Yes, there are lots of interesting “characters” in both worlds!) If you are interested, you might even have the opportunity to perform on a real-live Chicago stage!
5:10 - 6:30pm, 6:50 - 8:10pm
*If you are new to Improv, it is strongly recommended that you take Improv Essentials for two quarters before signing up for the Improv Performance Group.
