Week 11 - ASÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ election week

Welcome to Week 11 of the spring semester, 2024!

You are doing amazing and, wow, what an incredible weekend we just had here in the interior of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ. I went for a long walk around our Troth Yeddha’ campus yesterday and it was gorgeous. It was so warm and bright. The winter’s accumulation of snow was melting like crazy everywhere and people were out and enjoying the long-lost sun. This was the definitive end of winter and the beginning of spring. My car thermometer said it was 61 degrees! Next weekend doesn’t look to be quite so warm in the forecast—probably a good thing as this is unseasonably warm—but it's guaranteed that warmer, brighter, beautiful days are ahead of us. Are you ready?Ìý

Now is the time to keep up the pace with your studies. It will only get harder to focus as the distractions will only multiply with each brighter, warmer day. It is coming. There are only a handful of weeks left in the term and only five weeks from this coming Saturday to commencement. Hang in there. Finish strong. You got this!Ìý

I’m sending out my weekly email this week on a Monday as I wanted to make sure you know about this evening’s ASÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ candidate forum. From the ASÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ elections website:

“Elections play a vital role for the student body by ensuring representation, empowering student voices, promoting active involvement, fostering responsibility, nurturing leadership abilities, cultivating a sense of community, impacting decision-making, honing diverse skills, facilitating connections, and providing a structured avenue for driving positive changes.â€Ìý

These elections are important. Your representatives will be selected based on your vote. Grab a friend, stop by or tune into the forum this evening.Ìý
