In the finals Kappa Mu Epsilon (Math Honors Society) prevailed over the Resident Assistants to win it all.

This April,  Laura explored wines that pair perfectly with summer.  In a post-event survey (response rate 70%) residents told us:

• That they will drink more responsibly because of this event (81% strongly agreed or agreed).
• They would recommend this event to others (100% strongly agreed)
• This event was “fun”, “educational”, and “organized” (93.8% strongly agreed)

When asked what they like the most residents said:

“The tasting into the reception. Overall it was perfectly planned.”
“I liked the atmosphere. It was fun but educational as well. It was a great social event to get to know other people.”
“I appreciated that seasonal wines were discussed to prepare us for summer, rather than discussing all wine options.”
“It was fun and about something we will use.”

Other comments included:
“This was my second wine tasting event through Bridges and they have both been very well organized, as well as super informative and great for college students entering the ‘real world.’”
“It was a great experience for life after graduation.”
“Great event! Keep having them!”

August 24 – 25, 2013
Returning student come back to campus

Residents learned how to create a salad dressing and meat marinade from scratch.  They also practiced preparing a chicken breast.  Chef Raul provided instructions and a presentation on how to save money and the importance of learning technique over recipes.  Residents enjoyed an salad, entree, and dessert for just one meal swipe.

Thursday, May 16^th at 12:00pm, all non-graduating students must check out of their rooms.

Friday, May 24^th at 5:00pm, after commencement seniors and commencement volunteers must return to their space on campus and checkout.

Check-Out Procedures

• The student must pack and remove all belongings from the room prior to contacting an RA staff member. H/she must also clean his/her side of the room.
• Once the RA is contacted, h/she will take the RCR to the student’s room to complete an inspection of the space.
• RA will compare the current conditions of the room and its contents with what is listed on the RCR, and will demarcate any discrepancies. Detailed notes can be very helpful when determining charges.
• RAs should also note whether the room was clean upon checkout, and whether the student returned their key or not.
• The RA must never tell a student h/she will not be charged for damages in the room. The RAs role is to identify possible damages.  The final decision rests with the RD of the building and the Office of Residential Education. Staff members must refer the student to the building RD if they have any questions about a possible charge.
• Once the room inspection has been completed, the RA will ensure the door is locked behind them and organize the key and RCR in accordance with the RD’s system.
• Finally the RA will enter the resident as having departed on the checkout tracking spreadsheet being maintained in the RA office and note any specific needs of the room on the various log-sheets (painting, lock change, cleaning, etc).
