Spring Fling is the time when Cab and Student Involvement work hard to bring bands and other novelties to campus. This semester, they brought Ever Clear and Florez to campus. They did a good job playing there music. The MC was the creator of Evolution of Dance. He told jokes and made everybody laugh. They also brought snow cones, kettle corn, custom made bands, and designed T-shirts. With the T-shirts and bands, you could have designed them with anything you wanted. My best friend got himself and his girl friend on the shirt. Cab also played bingo. With bingo, they give away prizes such as mp3 players, DVDs players and other cool prizes. This bingo on the other hand was different. Instead of giving away a few prizes, they gave away 25 prizes all of which added up to 3000 dollars. The grand prize was an X box 360! http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/03/spring_fling.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/03/spring_fling.html Fri, 06 Mar 2009 14:22:34 -0500 This month is Black History Month. This week on the other hand, is the week that Kappa Alpha Psi, Progressive Black Men, S.I.S.T.U.H.S, Alpha Phi Alpha and Phi Beta Sigma hosted an expo and a yard show in honor of this month. The yard show was amazing. It showed unity among the Greeks and none Greek organizations. The Blood Buses were also out by the café taking blood and giving shirts, coupons and food in return. I got a T-shirt! Student Involvement is also doing something for this month. They are showed two movies. The movies are Taylor Perry’s “Diary of a Mad Black Women” and “A Women Called Moses.” http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/02/black_history_month.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/02/black_history_month.html Sun, 22 Feb 2009 14:22:03 -0500 Today is the day that the Leaders of Student Involvement interview people for the jobs of Orientation Leaders (OLs). This job is for people who want to help incoming freshman get used to the campus. Valentine’s Day is coming up soon and every single organization is doing something for it. The Greeks are doing candy grams while the people of S.E.R.V.E hand out coffee for their alternative spring break. They go to Louisiana, Brazil and Ecuador to help people in need, instead of going to the beach. CAB is having signups to the Orlando magic game. They are playing Detroit Pistons. http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/02/many_activities.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/02/many_activities.html Thu, 12 Feb 2009 14:18:37 -0500 Fraternity members Sorority members Alphas Kappas ]]> http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/01/going_greek.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2009/01/going_greek.html Wed, 21 Jan 2009 15:59:43 -0500 ]]> http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/12/winter_formal.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/12/winter_formal.html Fri, 05 Dec 2008 15:04:28 -0500 ]]> http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/11/pirate_experience.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/11/pirate_experience.html Tue, 18 Nov 2008 13:14:56 -0500 ]]> http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/alphas_halloween_party.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/alphas_halloween_party.html Fri, 31 Oct 2008 14:15:39 -0500 Today was Howl-o-Scream at Busch Gardens in Tampa. To me this one was a lot better than Halloween Horror nights. The scare zones were longer. The actors came out of the trees and trash cans just to scare you. The houses are so much scarier. In one of the houses, we had to walk through a small crawl space and while we were in this dark crawl space, the actors came out of nowhere and scared the crap out of people. I was in the group with the President of Student Government Union (SGU) Andre Curry. When he saw this, he ran all the way to the beginning and stopped. When we asked him why he stopped, he said and I quote, “There was a big black bird.�? We all laughed at him. Today was one of the funniest days of my life. http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/hallowscream.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/hallowscream.html Fri, 17 Oct 2008 09:43:17 -0500 ]]> http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/hey_today_was_the_day.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/hey_today_was_the_day.html Thu, 16 Oct 2008 09:37:24 -0500 ]]> http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/dance_party.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/10/dance_party.html Sun, 05 Oct 2008 13:06:06 -0500 Hey! My name is Devan. But most people call me Dj. I prefer Dj. I’m a freshman here at Saint Leo University (SLU). When I got my acceptance letter, I can remember calling my admissions counselor and tell her I got in. Even though she already knew, I wanted to thank her for getting me in. When summer orientation came, I was excited. Acting like a “true�? freshman, I got new clothes, shoes, and a fresh fade. The day arrived, and I drove down here. I wanted to be the first freshman on campus. I met everyone during our “Invitation to Orientation.�? I was running for freshman vice president, so I made it my job to get to know everyone. After our meetings, we had a party at club Leo. Club Leo is where a lot of people, freshman, sophomores, juniors and seniors come to dance. Even some of the Fraternities do their strolls and steps. During the transition from summer to college, I was a nervous wreck. I was so excited to leave my home, my job and my stress from high school, but I didn’t want to leave my friends and family. School started on the 25th of August. I arrived on the 23rd. I wanted to get the best of everything, and I wanted to make fun of the people who were struggling to get their stuff in on the 25. My parents helped me move in of course. After I got moved in, and my parents left, I went downstairs and introduced myself to everyone. At SLU we have the best RAs. RAs or Resident Assistants are college students who monitor the dorm that you stay in. If you have a problem, see them about it. Student Chaplains are like counselors. If you have a serious problem, talk to them and they will try and help with the situation. The transfer from your last summer is hard, but here at SLU, the staff makes it a lot easier to deal with. If you have any question, don’t be afraid to ask. http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/09/hey_my_name_is_devan.html http://blogs.targetx.com/slu/DevanJones/2008/09/hey_my_name_is_devan.html Mon, 01 Sep 2008 09:35:14 -0500
