Salvete amores!

We're getting so close to the best part of JCL. Elections! The Campaign Corner is nearly ready to be published and I can't wait for you all to see it! However, if you already know you want to run for a national office you can submit the nomination form now.

If you love the JCL as much as we all the officers do, we highly encourage you to read the Campaign Corner when it's available and consider running yourself. We can all attest to how great this experience is and how wonderful it is to give back to the JCL. So maybe you should think about it.

I also am so excited to see the submissions roll in for the Local Constitution Contest and read what you all have written. As always I have loved talking to more of you and reach out if you have any questions, comments, or concerns.

With warmest regards,

Isabella Ochoa

Salvete omnes!

I have been very busy the past few months as your NJCL Historian. Photo of the Month (POTM) has only been increasing in submissions, and I have had a blast judging your photos and creating results for you all. Additionally, I completed the first quarterly zine, a mini magazine which includes every single POTM submission from July to October. You can view the finished project here: https://joom.ag/Go7d.

The National Scrapbook is starting to take shape as well! I cannot wait to show you all the final project at National Convention. 

Finally, I want to plug the POTM contest one more time. If you have any photos of anything Classics related, I urge you to submit! You can submit your photos here.

I can’t wait to see you all at Nationals! It’s approaching quickly.  If you have any questions or just want to reach out, feel free to email me at [email protected] 

Thank you,
