As I was looking through this past week’s Digest trying to decide what to highlight, a realization hit me. I more than likely would be too busy to do/attend/participate in most of these, which honestly bummed me out. Part of going to college is the experience, and when we all were filling out applications I’m sure the sleep-eat-school-work-repeat routine wasn’t what we had in mind.  In a way, it made me feel a higher appreciation for all the staff, faculty and students who make these events possible. So, this post is dedicated to all the fine men and women who create these posts in hopes that students will get more involved in their college experience! I’m sure they more than anyone else agree with my sentiment that it’s a travesty most students don’t read the Digest. But as ever, I am here to let you know what you missed on the week’s Digest.

Student Involvement Fair

As if fate had intervened, the same week I’m wishing I could be more involved, the Student Involvement Fair happens to be occurring. This event happens near the beginning of each semester and invites all campus oriented groups, employers, and volunteer opportunities to come and show students what they are all about.   The event will be happening Thursday January 28th from 11am-1pm in the Great Room in the Yellowjacket Union. Go, get involved!

Want to flex your acting muscles?

Want a chance to work on your acting techniques? Ample opportunities arise every semester with the University Theater, but what of those who wish to do so in a much more private setting? Cathy Fank has provided! Cathy Fank will be teaching a directing class this semester that will need actors, and is holding auditions Wednesday February 3 from 4pm-6pm in the Holden Fine Arts Experimental Theater. Personal schedules are a must, and performance dates are April 7, 21, and 28.

GRE prep class

The dreaded GRE… It gives many nightmares. However, the University is willing to help with a prep class that has credits to boot! The course is mostly online and will cover a lot of the basic math and vocabulary that might crop up on the exam. The course runs March 1- May 3. If you want more information call either Marsha at 394-8808 or Heather at 394-8189.
