There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

The Xi Alpha chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc., is sponsoring this fun run/walk 5K on campus with LUNGevity to help create a world without lung cancer.
Lung cancer impacts one in 14 Americans and is the number one cancer killer. About 55 percent of Americans diagnosed with lung cancer are either former smokers or never-smokers. If lung cancer is caught before it spreads, the chances for survival improve to more than 50 percent.
Registration is $15 with valid student ID, $20 for lung cancer survivors, $25 for adults, $15 for seniors over age 60 and $10 for those younger than 13. For $5 off registration fee, enter code ICURE at checkout. Check-in begins at 9:30 a.m.; fun run/walk begins at 10:45 a.m.
Register online or make a donation to the Xi Alpha team at lungevity.org/atlanta. The group hopes to raise $25,000.
