Purple 101

Hi everyone,

I hope you all are enjoying your week. This Thursday, Colleges Against Cancer is hosting Purple 101, an awareness day to get people signed up and ready to go for Relay for Life. Wednesday night, club members decorated the entire upper lobby of Cosgrave Center in purple. There were purple balloons, purple streamers, purple signs, purple stars...purple everything. The club then spent the lunch hours on Thursday getting people signed up for Relay. Relay for Life is the biggest event on campus and this is the Mount's sixth year participating in the nationwide event to help eliminate cancer.

MAC Goes Green was busy this week too. It was another week of recycling, plus we are getting things ready for our Eco-Expo/Art show; co-sponsored with SIFE. This event is designed to make people aware of the different businesses that are “going green” and also to make everyone aware of how they can become environmentally friendly too. There are going to be a lot of informational handouts from numerous vendors, as well as some representatives from local businesses. We have great door prizes to give out as well. In addition, the school is at about 250lbs total for recycled aluminum and plastic. Our totals have been increasing each week and the campus is really taking part in helping the environment.

Another week has come and gone and only one more week until Spring Break! I hope you all enjoy your week and until next time....cya later.
