  <body><![CDATA[<p>As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, the Student Government Association (SGA) is helping students who can’t travel for the break find a home away from home.</p>

<p><span><span>Home for the Holidays lets Georgia Tech faculty and staff members volunteer to host a student for a Thanksgiving meal. Host families and students come together to celebrate and enjoy the holiday with their fellow Yellow Jackets.</span></span></p>

<p>“Thanksgiving is a time to bring together families and communities for a day of gratitude. SGA wants to strengthen the Georgia Tech campus community by supporting students who are away from their families during this special time," said Harrison Baro, executive vice president for Undergraduate SGA.</p>

<p><span><span>Students who are interested in finding a host can fill out the <a href="https://forms.office.com/r/6shQHM3ZTT">student interest form</a>. Faculty and staff can fill out the <a href="https://forms.office.com/r/D4dw9t6JXm">host form</a>. </span></span></p>

<p><span><span>All forms should be completed by Wednesday, Nov. 15, at 11:59 p.m.</span></span></p>

  <!--  Disquisition: it's funny how I write these TODOs and then never
         revisit them. It's as though the act of writing the thing down frees me
         from the responsibility to actually solve the problem. But what can I
         say? There are more problems than there's time to solve.  -->
