[Jazz at Williams] Spring 2022 Updates and Events

[Vaidhyan, Adithya]

Hi everyone,

Just a quick update.

Unfortunately, Shainman is being used this Thursday from 6:30-8:30pm, so
we'll have to push our first listening session to the following Thursday,
March 10th from 6:30pm-7:30pm.

Sorry about the last minute change.

Looking forward to seeing you soon!

Adithya
