Campus News of Interest to Adult Students, Updated Every Wednesday.

December 3, 2008

Words of Encouragement

At the end of the semester, students often feel the stress of finishing up projects, papers and presentations and are gearing up for finals. As the Fall 2008 semester draws to a close, the Office for Adult Students wanted to take a moment to encourage adult students. Adult students were asked to submit their favorite inspirational or motivational quotes for the "Encouraging Words" display in Jackson Library.

We've compiled the quotes submitted by adult students into a web page to encourage other adult students to "hang in there." Please click here to view this page and read the quotes!

Winter Holidays Around the World!

Please join the Office of Multicultural Affairs on Thursday, December 4, at 7:00 pm in the EUC Auditorium. This free event will be an informative look at different winter holidays around the world, and free food will be available. This program is an excellent opportunity for families, so feel free to bring your children!

Wear Blue and Gold on Dec. 5th!

On Friday, December 5th, SGA is sponsoring Blue and Gold Day where students are being asked to show their spirit by wearing blue and gold Spartan wear. Prizes will be handed out during the day such as t-shirts that say "I Bleed Blue & Gold" and scantrons. Drop by OAS while wearing your blue & gold to have your photo taken!

Additionally, on Monday, Dec. 1 at 7pm in the EUC Food Court, WUAG will host a live radio show with the Chancellor, Athletic Director Nelson Bobb and SGA President Michael Tuso. Throughout the day they will hand out coupons for a free drink with a purchase if you come out and watch the show.
