My Fellow WAC-ians,
Sorry, I always wanted to say that. Please don't judge me :-) Anyway, hey everyone, with this being my first official blog for the office, let me introduce myself. My name is Anjelica and I am the Student Center Intern. That's more than enough about me....
As you know, the month of November means one thing to college students everywhere: mid-semester blues. Sadly, at WAC we are not exempt from that. It's that time in the semester when the papers never seem to end, the exams sneak up on us in the early morning hours, and the presentations haunt our dreams . Where does a college student run to find reprieve from the perils of academia? (Sorry for the dramatics, I think I just wrote my first movie trailer). Well, if you're a student at Washington College, you must look no further than your own student body! (Not literally, YOUR body...nevermind, you get the idea).
In the past few weeks, the WAC student body has produced some awesome stress-relieving events including a Disco Dance Party courtesy of the Student Events Board, the World Series on a projector screen in the new Student Center courtesy of the Office of Student Activities, and pool, ping-pong, and video game tournaments also courtesy of the OSA.
But wait, there's more....this weekend the Black Student Union is throwing its annual Black and White Party and EROS is throwing its annual Drag Ball. But just in case that's not enough to kick Mr. Mid Semester Blues' tooshy, the Student Events Board is hosting its annual Comedy Week the entire week of November 16th!
On a serious note, I would be remiss if I didn't acknowledge the wonderful efforts of the AOPi Sorority in honoring their sister, Jasmine Queen who passed away last year. Her sisters continued their tradition of honoring her with their annual Queen of the Roses 5k Run/Walk to raise money for her scholarship. Jasmine was a friend of mine, and I know she would be proud.
Well, I think I've kept you for long enough.
United we stand in our fight against the mid-semester blues. Have a great week :-)
