I will be heading to Columbus in May, does anyone know what frame they will be using by then? Or

where to go to get the dash 1?

You'll be in the tweet. Congratulations, you'll be among the next "old school" fraternity.

As far as getting a dash 1, you will have to wait until you get here and stop by the bookstore and get your pubs. Unless you know someone who has an old one, this is the only way that I know of to get a dash 1. The bookstore does not mail them out to future studs or anything like that.

You should have time to study the dash 1 during academics at UPT before you hit the flightline (see post below about studying before UPT), so I won't worry too much about getting the dash 1 before arriving at CBM. Just realize that you are allowed to get the dash 1 the day you arrive at CBM while you have to wait until like 5 days before classes start before you are allowed to pick up the rest of your academic pubs (they don't want people getting an advantage because they arrived here early or something like that)
