As some of you are aware, the HGSA council has spent the past several months developing the capacity to update its own website. After much money spent, and a few brave souls lost, we are proud to announce that the HGSA council has finally discovered the secrets of nuclear fission. We also figured out how to update the website. Stay tuned for more news.
