Weekly Report

Week of 10/25/10

Members & Candidates

Thank you to everyone who attended and helped out at the accounting alumni reception this past week. I think the alumni really enjoyed their tours and appreciated us being there. I hope everyone also got a chance to network with the alumni.

What's Happening This Week

This week is our volunteer night and it will be a great opportunity to get your community service hours in. All members and candidates are required to have 6 hours of community service, 2 hours of which have to be from tutoring. If you are planning on going to the Open Door Mission for volunteer night, you need to e-mail Devin ASAP to let her know you will be there because there are only 3 spots left. If you are attending the Open Door Mission you will need to be there from 4pm-7pm (2828 North 23rd Street East). The other volunteer opportunity for Friday is painting pictures for the Children’s Hospital. The location has changed for this event and we will be meeting in the U Mo Ho room of the Student Center at 6pm. If you have any other questions about volunteer night or getting your volunteer hours in, please e-mail Devin (dtierney@unomaha.edu).

Weekly Report

Week of 10/18/10

Members & Candidates

I hope everyone enjoyed their fall break. We have a lot of events, meetings, and volunteer opportunities approaching so make sure you are checking your e-mail and staying up-to-date on what is going on.

What's Happening This Week

This weeks meeting is the accounting alumni reception, and you should have all received information on this last week. If not, here’s a refresher. We will be meeting in room 320 at 4:30pm. We will start giving tours around 4:45, and each tour should last about ten minutes. The tours will end at 5:30pm and we then will have time to talk with the accounting alumni. The reception ends at 6:30 and you will be free to go after that. Alcohol will be served at this reception. Please refrain from consuming alcohol even if you are of legal age. Alcohol on campus is a privilege that we don't want to risk losing for CBA.
