End of Week 2!

Hey hey,

So it is the end of our second week of the Spring semester and things with the OSA have jumped off to an awesome start. Dance back to WAC, the open mic night, and the SEB interest meeting were all great successes. I encourage you to continue attending all the events that go on here!

Next week on February 3rd is the OSA Leadership EXPERIENCE! It is an incredible opportunity for you to improve and learn more about different aspects of leadership in a college community. I strongly encourage you to come and invite your friends!

We will feed you as well, because the event does begin at 5:30.

Here is a list of what we are offering at the EXPERIENCE!

5:30-5:50 dinner
5:50-6 opening speakers
6-6:55 Session 1
your leadership style- Beth Anne Langrell
Clubbing made Easy-- Tri Ofosu and John Blakey
7-7:55 Session 2
Leadership Toolbox-- Ryan Kelty
Ultimate programming-- Jake deal and kelli canada
8-8:55 Session 3
Small community leadership-- Sophie Turshen
Collaboration between groups-- Darnell Parker

There are two sessions offered at one time so you have a choice of which to attend!

IF you can't stay for the entire thing you can come for just a session or two. Whatever the case we would love to see you there!

Take it easy!-- Sophie

Open House!

Hi everyone! Just checking in for the first time this semester! Its been a pretty hectic one on my end. Class, getting everything ready for the students again, its been a real hassle. One awesome thing that we are doing is having a staff/faculty open house on Thursday between 3 and 5 PM! Here the faculty and staff can meet both the SGA and the OSA and.....drumroll....Happy Hour! Yes, there will be a cash bar and yes it will be fun! Can't wait to be there! Hope everyone has a great start to the year and beyond! Much love WAC,

Tim

BOOM...we got you!

Second week...the week after our first together...and what a good first week it was! The office had two very successful programs, with the showing of Law Abiding Citizen and the Dance Back to WAC party. Both programs spotlighted the two new members of Student Events Board, Alex Lating, Director of Variety Events, and Sally O'Donnell, Director of Party Planning. Each added their own new twists to typical events, with the offering of food (mozzarella sticks!) and fun. Look for more great events to come from them and the rest of SEB!

In the world of the Student Center, we have new leagues forming, with cash prizes for the winners, so make sure to pick up your registration form for pool or ping-pong (or both!). Also, Student Activities is proud to be holding its semesterly Leadership Experience (summit of leaders to explore leadership). This time we have tons of differing leadership topics to experience and explore. Look for more information from OSA in the coming week!

On a finishing note, the Student Events Board will be hosting the first open mic night of the semester in collaboration with Musician's Union. AND, myself, jared halter, is planning to perform...so if you are looking for a laugh from someone making a complete fool of themselves out of a lack of talent, make sure to come check that out! While you are adding that to your calendar, place SEB General Interest Meeting on Thursday night down there as well. Where you will be able to meet the executive board and hear how your voice can make a difference!

Anyway, i hope everyone is enjoying their semester, and i see you around soon!

Sring Semester 2010


Hey everyone! We're all back from winter break and classes have begun. My junior year has definitely been filled with some of the most amazing classes I've had. For the first full weekend back, SEB has an awesome dance party planned. It will be this Friday in the Egg and starts at 9PM. Some awesome new video games have come in and new ping pong, pool, poker, NHL and FIFA leagues are being formed. If you're interested, make sure to stop by the Student Center and sign up! As far as the web goes, I will be working with WAC clubs to get their websites up and running, as well as updating old sites. If you're a part of a club and want to work on the website, please email Lmuir2.
