The Caltech Bookstore is proud to announce the limited availability of Caltech Olive Oil for sale to winners of a lottery offered to members of the Caltech Community.
This special Caltech Olive Oil was made from olives freshly picked from the Caltech campus during the Olive Harvest Festival on Nov. 2nd, 2007.
The Bookstore only has a stock of 400 bottles! Due to the extremely limited quantity of this popular item, and to be as fair as possible, we will be selling the Olive Oil on a lottery basis only. The winners of the lottery will have the opportunity to purchase one 5oz bottle for $31.42 (as in Pi 3.1415926...).
This year, only Caltech-affiliated students, faculty, staff, alumni, associates and trustees are eligible to participate in the lottery for a chance to purchase the oil. Hopefully, next year will provide a larger harvest.
