Week One Done
So the first week of classes and meetings is done and everything is settling into a nice rhythm, much less hectic on campus lately.
Last week BESS had our first program of the year, Guaranteed 4.0, a seminar open to the entire student body about good study skills and habits, and our first General Body Meeting. At the meeting we introduced the eboard, played an icebreaker game, and introduced the core mission and goals of the organization.
We're still going strong with a large community service program in October, as well as resuming our regular classes that we teach and hosting the New England Zone Conference.
I'm excited for our last big recruiting event of the fall tomorrow, both the African American Institute Open House and the College of Engineering Freshmen Night. The Institute Open house has all of the Black Student Orgs with tables set up recruiting as well as food, fun and games and it's really a great event and a good time. It's a good start to showing how welcoming and supportive the Institute is and helps create a smaller close community within the large university.
Freshman Night is mandatory for all COE freshmen as a part of one of the intro classes, but it's a way for them to meet upperclassmen, learn all about the Engineering Student Organizations, and there's raffles all night long!
Well I have a conference call to continue preparations for the Zone conference in a few minutes so I'm off. If you have any questions, even if it's not about anything I've mentioned, feel free to ask.
