Thanks to everyone who went to Take Back the Night!

Thursday is a big day/ night

Part of Sexual Assault Awareness Month is Thursday: TakeBackTheNight! It is a march from the Justice Center (downtown) at 6pm and ends in a candlelight vigil, raising awareness about sexual assault, domestic violence, etc.

We're meeting at 4:45p downstairs to make signs/banners for the Poland group that marches. The group will leave Poland around 5:20p or so -- or you can meet us there before 6p. It is important to arrive at the Justice Center before 6p so you can sign in and get your free t-shirt (if you pre-registered).

Pancake night is also tomorrow at 9:15p :)

News for March 19

There are several positions still available in the Housing and Residence Life Department for Summer. You can apply at the central Housing office in SW. The pay rate is $6.00 per hour plus a 50% discount on your summer housing in Rodes and McCormack. Hope to see you on campus this summer!

Hugh Poland Hall Council meets tomorrow night (Tuesday) at 7pm in the study room. We're planning a year-end bash with Keen/Barnes, as well as a Potter Childrens' Home volunteer day - among other things. Come and get involved!

Upcoming Events

Wed. night, 8:30p, the favorite Elizabeth Mohon will host another "B*tch" session at the HP.

Thursday: we'll have a donation box ready for Salvation Army. Stop by the desk on your way to/from spring break to donate canned goods, new/great clothing, and new toiletries. Donations accepted through March.

Friday: We close Poland Hall at exactly 6pm. See the list below for things to check before you go!

Tuesdays, 7:04p, study room: Hall Council is planning an Easter party for the Potter Home kids (much like the Halloween party...only not as scary) for April. Also, a "Spring King" dance/party/social later in April with a DJ, food, and prizes. Stop by if you want to help plan!

Meet your hall director...again!
I'm still surprised by some of you who are surprised to find out that Yes, I live here...Yes, I'm married.. Yes, she lives here too...oh, and we have a cat and a 9 month old daughter! :o If you want to read more about the guy they call "BP" and his family, here is a link to the blog: http://the-powells.blogspot.com

Spring Break closing

We close at 6p sharp on Friday night, and reopen a week from Sunday at 10am.
Here's a list of things you need to do before you leave Poland for break:

• Defrost and unplug your fridge. Open the door and leave it dry!
• Unplug everything
• Wash all dirty dishes and return them to your room
• Take all trash to the compactor or dumpster--use your key to compact the trash.
  
• Leave your heater and fan on medium-low. Clear the space in front of the heater so they can change your filter!
• Move belongings from closet floor so they can spray for bugs.
  
• Close and lock windows, lower blinds but leave them open.
  
• Turn off lights and lock your door.
  
• Have a great, safe break!
