I can't believe it is April already. We have just over a month left in the semester! It seems as though it just started yesterday and I remember wishing it could just be summer and now it almost is!

Last weekend the track team traveled to North Carolina to participate in the Raleigh Relays. It is the largest relay meet on the east coast so we had some amazing competition. We also had some amazing weather. It was 76 degrees the first day we were there and 81 degrees the first day of the meet. The first day of the meet turned out the best. The warm weather helped me break my shot put record. I was able to throw 39 feet 4 inches! It also helped Crystina Martinez break the 10,000 meter record (just over 6 miles) with a time of 35:57.

This week at student housing we are also working on planning multiple upcoming events. Three big ones are Club Don, Exploring Roommates, and Foods of the World. Club Don is Friday. We have a professional DJ and it sounds like it is going to be a lot of fun. Exploring Roommates is a program that allows returning residents the opportunity to meet other people who plan on returning and see if they would like to be roommates. For foods of the world we are getting food from local restaurants that represent food from around the world. We have also invited the Chancellor, Vice-Chancellors, and multiple other people on campus, so students can get to know them better and be able to share the experience. April is always full of events. It helps keep everyone focused as summer is fast approaching!
