A word from your local ASG 11/04

The Commuter

Thursday, November 5, 2009

Since I am not a reporter for The Commuter, I do not know what is going to be published for the week. If any of the topics that I am going to speak about overlap within this edition of the paper, I apologize. Where overlapping occurs, please consider this question: Was there nothing else to write about, or are important things happening all around us every day? Ponder upon and respond if you wish.

This week on campus, students, staff, faculty, and members of the community are invited to attend open forums on Friday. There they will have the opportunity to meet the two candidates for presidency of the college. I believe that this is a great chance for people to get a “snapshot view” of the candidates. The LBCC Board of Education will be entering an executive session on Saturday to make a final decision between the candidates.

The Health Occupations Representative position for the ASG will be decided upon this week. It is possible that the decision has been made prior to the publication of this article. For inquiries and introductions, contact the Student Life & Leadership office. There will be a more formal introduction of our newest member to the ASG at the Nov. 18 meeting.

“Ice Cream Socials” will be held at each of the satellite campuses this week. Monday – Sweet Home Center; Wednesday – Benton Center; Thursday – Lebanon Center. Each event will take place from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. Free ice cream?!? Awesome!

Ralph Macchio celebrates his 47th birthday on Wednesday. Happy Birthday Daniel-san!

What’s important to one person may not be to another. It’s a very clichéd expression (or statements of similar nature), but it’s true. Take the time to acknowledge something that may be important to someone other than yourself. Share your time and energy with something or someone outside of your comfort zone. Do something! You never know what you will enjoy until you try it.

Sincerely,
Nic Bowman
ASG President
