Back-to-School Special Edition
Dear Student Affairs Staff:
 
Do you find yourself making lists as much as I do? To celebrate the end of the semester and the start of summer, I am sharing with you my list of "Five Good Things." I encourage you to try making your own short list of good things—and I hope this time of year brings a multitude of benefits and blessings to your lives!
Cheers to a wonderful summer!
 
Sincerely,
Amy

No one submitted an article the first. I took looked through what was in SLACK and added the campus health schedule, the other stuff I added to the next issue since this was supposed to be focused on Back-to-School. Since it's a special feature, I can throw this layout out and just use the events I have listed and anymore more you may have. I guess the vid from Amy. I will give that a go after I send this. I did update the news you can use, but that can also wait until next week.
