Is anyone else feeling like, since Monday, they’ve gotten assigned more assignments then they really care to complete? It certainly feels like there are only two weeks left until finals, and I am getting jittery waiting for summer break! It doesn’t quite help that the weather has refused to fully cooperate.  However, the events from last weekend were a smashing success, and in the coming weeks, plenty more opportunities will arise for all of us (me) to let go of the stress.  Here is what you missed on this week’s digest.

UWS Symphonic Band Concert
Ahh, music, no better way to reduce stress levels.  What could make listening to music better? Not only will you reduce stress by listening to featured music by fellow UWS Students Ian Deterling and Michael Ugrich, but also hear a the Oboe styling of a local High School Junior, Anya Muench from Hermantown.  The concert is being held at 7:30pm this Thursday April 22 and is $5 for adults $3 for students. 

American Sign Language Course
I love watching people use American Sign Language to communicate, despite not having much of a clue what they are talking about.  There is something beautiful about this form of communication (well maybe I’m biased because I think many forms of communication are beautiful.)  A Basic ASL Skills workshop will be held this summer, Thursdays June 10-July 15 from 4-6pm to help people like me learn about ASL.  The class costs $79 and you can register at the Superior Continuing Education/Extension office in Old Main 102.

Book Store Sale
For those of you who like retail therapy, ‘Jacket Book and Supply will be having a sale this Thursday, April 22 from 10am-1pm.  Items will be on sale for up to 50% off.  Even us poor college students can afford things when it is 50% off!
