Rent-A-Roman

Saturday afternoon, come and purchase your Roman servant for the day. We ask that each chapter "volunteer" at least two students to be sold. All servants will be under the direction of their owners within reason from the time of the sale until the beginning of General Assembly III. Delegates will be sold for real money and the proceeds will go to the CJCL Scholarship fund.
