What's up Bend Beavs? Psyched to be back with you for another academic year. We thought
you guys might be feeling a little sluggish about being back on campus next week, so we
wanted to come to you and talk about all the exciting things that are happening on campus
that will make that transition easier. And now I understand why kids are wiped when they
do that stuff for an hour. We've got an exciting program starting next Monday. It's called
Jump Start. If you don't know what Jump Start is, it's a full week of activities for students
returning and new students on our campus. It's easy to find out what's happening, just
look for people wearing a red shirt or a red balloon or a red poster. If you see red, it
probably has to do with Jump Start. Monday is an easy day. There's coffee and cookies
all around campus. Different people dressed like I am that can tell you what's happening,
help get you involved. We have something happening every single day of the week, and for everything
you come to you can get entered in a raffle to win tuition money, to win a laptop, iPod
touch, lots of good prizes and lots of good incentives for you to keep coming back every
day, keep entering. So after Monday when you've had some cookies and some coffee and seen
the week's schedule, come to Tuesday. Tuesday is gonna be a huge blowout barbecue on the
patio of Cascades Campus. We have Louie's coming in. We've got some music, we've got
student representatives that are there to tell you about what's happening, introduce
themselves to you, and talk about what matters to you. Wednesday, at this great place, Bouncing
Off The Walls, you can bring your family down from 6-8 p.m, and you can let the kids go
nuts, eat some pizza. Again, get entered in that drawing. Thursday, we have a resource
fair in Willie Hall, that's in the Campus Center if you don't know. That's also where
our dining area is. Come through the resource fair, get a free cup of yo talk to people
from everything about Library services, veterans services, tutoring services, all the stuff
that's going to help you be success flu about. Then we get to Friday, and we've got an awesome
event partnered with Fred Myer from 11 p.m. - 1 a.m. You heard that right, 11 p.m. - 1
a.m. Fred Myer is shut down. It's just open to you as a student, great discounts on literally
everything in the store, plus free food, giveaways of cash, gift cards, different electronics.
Come get the things you need to get off to the right start and have some fun. Welcome
back, Beavs. We're psyched to see you.
