Campus Life

Verging on the end of week two. I ran and started distributing my first set of reports and met a whole bunch more people who will be involved going forward.

For a commuter school, there's a lot happening on campus. There's a list of the day's activities on the website. So far, I've swabbed my cheek and applied to be on the bone marrow donor registry. I checked out the jewelry and knife/fork/spoon combos created by one of the metalworking classes. There's an art exhibit in the Visitor's Center and an art & textile exhibit in the communications building lobby.

There's a Chuck Norris fan club. The Asian American Association was selling nachos as a fundraiser. Almost every day some club or other is selling food. Saw a posting for a SLTS meeting; that could be fun depending on which vowel one inserted. (It's an acronym for Student Life and Transition Services). I wonder if the SLTS meet at the STUN? (Student Union).

Mike and I ate lunch together than checked out the racquetball courts, thinking we could go after work a couple of days a week. At lunchtime, there wasn't a soul playing. When we went back at 5:00 pm, every court was booked 4-7:00 pm. Hoping once the new athletic center opens, the demand will shift to the new courts.

The outdoor tennis courts might be a less occupied alternative now that it's starting to heat up.
