<Title>ODK Graduation Cords on Sale 12/4-12/21</Title>
<Tagline>Grad cords for students graduating in Dec. for $3</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div>
    <span>Hello </span><span>ODK</span><span> members,</span>
    </div>
    <div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>I am so excited that the UMBC <span>ODK</span> Circle can now offer <span>ODK</span> Graduation Cords at a highly discounted rate for UMBC <span>ODK</span> members. These are cords that you can wear at either undergraduate or graduate commencement and keep after graduation. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>HUGE thanks to the Commons staff that helped make this possible!!</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>How to buy your cords:</div>
    <div><ul>
    <li>
    <strong>Where:</strong> The Commons Campus Information Center<br>
    </li>
    <li>
    <strong>When</strong>: Dec 4 - 21 during the following hours: M-F 8am - 10pm, Sat &amp; Sun 10am - 8pm. <br>
    </li>
    <li>
    <strong>How</strong>: Tell the CIC staff person you want to buy <span>ODK</span> Cords, they will then ask for your full name and student ID. <br>
    </li>
    <li>
    <strong>Payment</strong>: You can only purchase your cord with cash or UMBC red card. The CIC does not take credit card or check.<br>
    </li>
    <li>
    <strong>Cost</strong>: $3 - you may only purchase one set of cords for yourself. <br>
    </li>
    </ul></div>
    <div>It has been tradition in the past to, after graduation, give your cord with a thank you card to a mentor who has helped you in your leadership journey. While this tradition works for some people, I also understand if you want to keep your cord yourself. <br>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Email me at <a href="mailto:cjanet@umbc.edu">cjanet@umbc.edu</a> if you have any questions.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>- Corinne</div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>PS--If you are graduating in May, you do not need to purchase your cords now, we will put the graduation cords on sale again in the Spring.</div>
