The weather cooperated, and the Anderson Animal Shelter of South Elgin came through again! The Honors Program put on another successful Puppy Study Break last week. Thanks to Lacey Wells and her helpers for the legwork, and to JSO for the popsicles.
Some of the scenes from the event:
The Honors Program, along with the Judson Student Organization, will host another Puppy Study Break during exams. Come by the Upper Commons on Wednesday, December 7 between 11:00am-1:00pm for some K-9 stress relief and refreshments.
Pass the word — all are welcome!
Honors Students are invited to attend a meet & greet reception right after the main event of the World Leaders Forum Inspirational Series on October 10. Students will have the opportunity to ask questions of both Mary Lou Retton and Nancy Theis Marshall (former Olympic champion, our chapel speaker and emcee that day). Contact Kristen Egan in the Development Office for more information and to RSVP.
Judson’s Constitution Day events will include an afternoon talk exclusively for Honors students and World Leaders Forum scholars in Chapel 6 from 12:30-2:00pm on Wednesday, September 21. This talk, entitled “Leadership in a Time of Crisis,” will follow talks in Chapel and at a special luncheon for community and business leaders. Honors students will be hosting tables at the luncheon as well. See Judson’s website for additional details.
We had another successful Puppy Stress Relief study break event on campus today.
For the third consecutive exam week The Honors Program has coordinated with the Anderson Animal Shelter in South Elgin to bring puppies to campus, to the delight of dogs and students alike.
Faculty, students, and friends were encouraged to bring their own dogs as well, so we had a full contingent of both dogs and people to enjoy some play time.
We had dogs large . . .
And small . . .
And, of course, refreshments…
Many thanks to Crystal Barker, Jon Richardson, Nate Rozanski, and Kimmy Blake for putting it all together.
