Making Study Abroad a Reality
Our SSS workshop series continued with SSS participants and the Center for Global Learning presenting information about how students can make study abroad a reality.

Financial Aid Jeopardy 2013
This January 14, thirty-two students were lucky enough to play Financial Aid “Jeopardy.”

Divided into four teams, students competed for the chance to win Java John’s gift cards (and learned lots about Financial Aid in the process). Categories included Acronyms, Completing the FAFSA, Financial Aid Programs, Loans, Loans, Loans and Potpourri; while the answers ranged from Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant to the IRS Data Retrieval Tool.

While competing, we snacked on chips & salsa and pinwheel hors d’oeuvres, and three students received door prizes such as a USB powered lamp and an LED board.
Finals Pizza Party 2012
On December 7, 2012 SSS hosted our annual “Kick Off to Finals Pizza Party and Board Game Night.”
Forty-seven students enjoyed the variety of Pizza Hut, including a pineapple pizza (apparently it was excellent), along with fresh fruits and vegetables. While the movie A Christmas Story played in the background, we played card or board games (I lost badly at Disney Sorry, again ☹ ).
For the door prize winners: Read more...
