Anatomy students focused their learning around wounds and wound healing this week by diving into a patient case study. Each student created their own wound based on a patient being involved in a car accident and then each student will explain how the wound, scabbing and scarring process will occur.

Our first class competition of the year was also the last one of the decade! It was a huge success and gave students the opportunity to spend time with their class before break. Decked out in their class color, students and staff competed against each other in games like musical chairs, karaoke, ring toss, and more. There were also performances by Cheer, Song, and Choreo. Congrats to the seniors for pulling off the win!

Sea Kings all over campus this week were getting in the holiday spirit. With dress out days all week long, students and staff were decked out in puffy jackets, holiday headgear, and festive sweaters. Our classified staff lead the charge by coordinating holiday spirit gear to wear and spread cheer in every office.
One of our largest clubs on campus, the Gay-Straight Alliance, hosted their annual holiday party at lunch. The
Black Student Union (BSU) celebrated Kwanzaa at their last meeting of 2019. Kwanzaa is actually observed December 26 - January 1, but they celebrated early by learning about the 7 principles or themes for each night, and enjoying music, conversation, and a potluck feast. The French classes celebrated the holidays in an authentic way with a demonstration of how to make the bûche de Noël by our favorite local French pastry chef Patrick.
