Family Day!!!

So let’s start off with proper introductions…My name is Erin, I am a senior majoring in English and Psychology. I am President of the Alternative Spring Break Service Club here on campus as well as an Orientation Ambassador/Coordinator.

Ok with that said…here’s some information on Family Day!! Family Day is on October 24th on the North campus field from 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM (roughly). The theme this year is kind of a blast from the past with 80s and 90s. Get dressed up and come enjoy the fun!

Hey guys it’s Jeff! I’m one class down and that much closer to the long weekend!! Gotta love those. Anyways, just want to update you guys on whats going to be happening on and around campus in the next few days. I attended the “Movies That Rock” series at the ICC on Monday and it was actually a lot of fun so if none of you have ventured to see one of the awesome movies (a.k.a The Hangover), do it!! It is a good way to unwind after a a long week of studying and exams. The Hangover is showing tonight at 8 in O’leary 222, Sunday in the Fox Hall Common at 8, and Monday at the ICC also showing at 8.

Come and support your field hockey and soccer teams on Saturday as they both compete at 1 o’clock at Cushing Field on North Campus. Field Hockey is playing St. Michael’s while Soccer will be competing against LeMoyne College. Come and show your support!!

And DO NOT forget to get your flu shot this season! You don’t want to be “the kid who got everyone sick and now there’s a pandemic at UMass Lowell”….that would never happen but seriously, stay healthy and get your flu shot. Health Services is doing one last clinic on Tuesday October 13 in the McGauvran 3rd floor lobby. It only cost $15 and it will keep you from catching that pesky flu. Now I’m afraid of needles…like deathly afriad and I am going to get it done so if I can do it…you can!! WHO’S WITH ME!?!?!?!…don’t all cheer at once people.

Alright enough lecturing. But be sure to definetly check out all the events going on and if you haven’t already checked the “Gotta Be Here” website do it! And here is the link to the website so you don’t even have to search for it yourself. Aren’t I great?

Alright I’m Done,

OCTOBER 30th – Save The Date! – The Rematch: UML vs BU @ Tsongas Arena

How sour are UML hockey fans about last years Hockey East Finals?

“Yo BU, I’m happy for you, and ‘Imma let you finish’, but the Riverhawks made that goal!”

I cried. Officials needed bodyguards. We lost 1-0 on a bad call and an uncommon rivalry was formed.

Just listen to the commentary and see for yourself: “The Call Heard ‘Round The World”
Make sure you’re there at the Tsongas Arena on October 30th for the retribution game of the 2009-2010 UMass Lowell Riverhawks Season! Game attendance is free for students!

Get Immunized!

Flu Shot Clinics

Cumnock Hall – Oct 7th (10AM-2PM)
McGauvran Student Union – October 13th (10AM-2PM)

Only $15.00 to prevent the BIG BAD FLU! Trust me, you don’t want to be sick during midterms, finals, or ever.

Kill your misery with money and a phlebotomic panacea…

You could even win a Scottish Fold Kitten! (Just Kidding…Sorry Jeff :-P)

Don’t Ever Skip Class, Whether You’re There Or Not!

Each class individually costs approximately $80.00. Don’t waste your money on frivilous things like sleep and laziness. Even though the best things in life are free, class isn’t, and your attendance means more than just sitting in a seat with your eyes glued to a projector. Manage your time and your class schedule so you can learn and participate instead of being a lush who thinks that a coffee and a Sporting News is the best way to spend the morning in Exploring the Universe. Before you know it those midterms are going to come rolling in and those students who don’t attend class or who sit there doing nothing but texting suprisingly disappear next semester. Don’t say no one didn’t warn you…

Help Me Out!!

It’s Jeff and I need your help!! I am having a hard time deciding on what I want to be for Halloween. It is between a classic nerd, headless man, or a pumpkin bobble head. I do not have a picture of me with the pumpkin head but here is the nerd and headless man……..

Anyway, here is what I have on my agenda today. I have to do some last minute studying for an exam at 4 which I am not excited about but we all have to do them so SUCK IT UP!!….sorry…

Later tonight I have rehearsal with the Studio Jazz Orchestra getting ready for our performance. As the end of the semester winds down all of our ensembles here will be performing for the students to come and watch for free so be sure to follow the updates about when they are performing and come support your fellow students!! The music ensembles range from concert and orchestral music to jazz and funk music so whatever you are into we have an ensemble that you will enjoy. I’ll keep you guys posted!!

Alright I’m Done,
Jeff

Fox Hall – Best Place in the World…Period.

The Reasons that Fox Hall is better than anywhere else in the world:

1. The Common – Late Night Dining is open until 1 AM so if you like food you’ll love Fox .
2. The Rec Center – literally less than 400 feet from the front door is the best exercise facility in all of Middlesex county. There’s no excuse for not going at least for three or four hours per week if you live in Fox.
3. Fox Hall Dining- Aramark offers quality and delicious meals on the second floor, so you never have to walk to a dining hall that’s more than a couple of floors beneath you.
4. Huge triples and doubles (even quads) – So much room in these fully furnished rooms.
5. 1000+ Residents – Fox Hall never sleeps! There’s so many new friends to meet at all hours of the day!
6. Centers for Learning- How many resident halls do you know of that have a computer lab and tutoring center that’s open late night, every night??? That’s right, none, except for Fox Hall.
7. A High Rise/River View in the Tallest Building in Lowell – Need I say more?
8. The Endangered Falcons (aka the “Riverhawks”) – They live on the roof and divebomb pigeons and jays. They’re the badest and would only choose the most awesome perch in the world to be endangered and awesome!
9. Living Learning Communities (LLC’s) – Newly Renovated Floors with students who are studying the same subjects that you are!
10. Primarily Freshman – Because you’re only cool once and then you become a boring upperclassmen.
