Remember the "Handcuffs"



Luckyday welcomes the 2007- 2008 NEW Freshmen Council! The council has started off with a great start. In order to begin the team development process, the council met together Saturday, January 26, 2008 for team building activities with Dr. Wolfe. One of the most memorable experiences was the "Handcuff activity." After countless minutes of fun and frustration of trying to figure out how to get un-cuffed, it became really difficult and almost impossible. The Freshmen remain excited of full of energy as they begin this semester with a great start!

Let's give it up to our Freshmen Council members. CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Dr. Wolfe also made visits with the Sophomore Council, Executive Team, and the Y2I students for further team building. It was a very reflective experience and the aspects they learned about each other should be used effectively for the remainder of the semester.

Snow Day!!

Saturday, January 19, 2008 occurred the event that is now down in the history books! Snow DAY!! Countless students across USM gathered together at the Rock and united to play in the snow. The campus was painted a beautiful white and cars were decorated with miniature snowmen (and women). Some students created "Frost-ine" the snowwoman, creating a skirt out of snow. This was a good way to start the semester. One of the most famous snowmen was the replica of our alumnus, Brett Farve, coming back to The Rock just like old times.

The snow stayed on the ground almost all weekend! This was exciting for all the Mississippi natives. Snow is pretty, but it has brought the cold.
