J-Term Highlights:

• Third Beall went international this January - We had students in Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Australia, Italy, Greece, and Japan! Our on-campus students had a wonderful time, too, from knitting and crocheting to traveling to Morganton for Fencing (with swords)! I've loved hearing everyone's stories from the past two weeks and know it was a much needed break before the start of the Spring semester!

Senior Leadership Campus Service:

• The Senior Leadership Campus Service (SLCS) selection process is underway! Almost twenty different assignments participate in this process so that juniors can apply for several positions. An overview of the process and the various positions can be found on the site. Please note that the SLCS process does not account for every senior campus service assignment. There are many opportunities for leadership in campus service to consider. Juniors should reach out to any employees that they may be interested in working with next year.

Residence Halls Closing & Opening:

• Just a quick reminder that the Residence Halls will be closing on Thursday, February 25th at 5:00pm. Halls will reopen on Sunday, February 28th at noon.

• Students will complete an electronic Extended Sign-Out Form during hall meeting. On this form they indicate where they are going for the break, who they are traveling with, and how they are getting to their destination. If students have specific questions about checkout procedures for Extended Weekends, they should speak to me.
