T-minus 2 official days (until the end of Friday) until Spring Break! Give yourself a pat on the back and breathe a sigh of relief, no school for one whole week. Indicating by the lack of students in all of my classes however, many students have already checked out. I envy you students for I was unable to leave lovely Superior for break. Good thing I’ve got my good buddy, the Digest to help me figure out what to do here in Superior. Here is what you missed on this week’s Digest.
Women’s Basketball Hosting Magic Show
Now, it is a bit early, but on April 7 magician Garry Carson will be performing his magic show, “The Reality Magic Show,” in Thorpe Langly Auditorium at 6pm. Carson’s big claim to fame is having performed over 8,000 magic shows at the MGM in Las Vegas, Nevada. Going to this show will be like Spring Break entertainment after spring break. Tickets cost $10.
Vice Chancellor for Campus Life/ Dean of Students Office Scholarships
Free money. Those two words should be enough to get you to come to the Information and Services Desk in the Yellowjacket Union and pick up a packet. There are a total of 18 scholarships available, 5 of those being for veterans or children of veterans. The packet has a description of each scholarship and details about what qualifies a student for each scholarship. Applications are due by March 31, 2010 by 4pm at the Information and Services Desk.
Jim Grittner Ceramic Exhibit
As the tagline for the Digest says, “Fifty Years and Still Trying to Make Pots” ceramic/art professor Jim Grittner will have his own ceramic pieces on display in the Kruk Gallery. Grittner who is retiring will also have a reception this Thursday March 11 from 6pm – 8pm.
