Hello everyone!
Just wanted to remind you about the great opportunity for some extra help.  The math tutors are awaiting… and the candy jar is full!!  Stop by for some math and munchies!  The schedule is attached and, as always, does not change from week to week so you can print it out and rest assured that the tutors will be available and looking forward to helping you.  Come one, come all!!
Have a great Blue week.

New Drainage System Underway

2014 Rachael Hanley Sod Drainage4/24 Update: The project in front of the campus center is almost complete and sod is being rolled out today. Please stay off the new grass in the area for the time being. Physical Plant staff have staked and roped off the area as a gentle reminder.

You may have noticed that the grass area in front of the Reed Center has been fenced off. Over the next couple of weeks, a new drainage system will be put in so that when the tent for graduation is installed, in the event of rain, the water coming off the tent will flow into these new additional drains. The work should be done quickly and grass will be replanted in plenty of time before graduation and Alumni Weekend.

Day of Silence on April 11

Above is a video promoting the day of silence.

Williston is participating in the day of silence on Friday, April 11. Students can be actively silent by wearing a sticker and can support the effort, but still be vocal, by wearing a bracelet or a button or both.

All my best,
Michael Thompson
Co president of PRIDE

Field Trip to Vernal Pools on April 10

We Support Yasuni Event

Hi everyone,

Supporting YasuniBesides all that is happening in Venezuela; there is something else happening in my country, Ecuador. In a small part of Ecuador there is Yasuni National Park which is arguably the most biologically diverse spot on Earth. The problem is that the government wants to destroy it forever, to make room for oil drilling. One way to stop it is signing an international petition online, however the petition is in Spanish so it would be easier if you just respond to this email giving me your consent to use your email and your name to sign the petition. (I just need your email and first name)

I’m also taking a picture with a sign saying “We support Yasuni”, so if you want to be in the picture go to Reed (in front of the Stu Bop) on Tuesday after class.

If you’re still not convinced about the idea watch this video or email me with questions.
