- Major event with the newspaper....we are online now! Check it out at http://www.cbubanner.com/. Pretty exciting stuff!
- Next semester, I will not be in charge of Culture and Perspective, but I will be in charge of the features section...I am looking forward to it, thought I would have preferred to be the editor of the cultural aspect of news. God has something else in store for me and I am most definitly looking forward to the ways he will be using and shaping me through all of these things.
Those two major events pretty much sum up my experience on the newspaper staff this year. I worked with some pretty amazing people this year and got to interview and cover some pretty neat events, but all of that is on the website...go see for yourself!
Next is CAB. I have been involved in this for two years and it is coming to an end. I am pretty excited because for one, next year I will be able to enjoy the events just as a student; not as a coordinator...but a little sad because working so close to students allows me to connect to some unique people on campus and really meet students needs through different ideas and things I get to plan out. So I will definitely miss that. Okay... acheivments...
- For the Fall semester, lights on India was my absolute favorite! I got to work with so many different people on campus. I worked with current staff, current students, international students, and even an alumni came to do henna for the students. There were different prayer needs for India and students seemed really eager to come out to this event. It was really the first big event I ever planned. I am very pleased with this event. Henna, somosa's and chai tea really helped this night to be a cultural event for students.
- For the Spring semester, the event I am most proud of is Style Your Sole. I paired with Toms Shoes, tomsshoes.com, and put on an event where students could purchase a pair of shoes through our office. Then a few weeks later after we ordered all of the shoes, we had an event with spray paint, buttons, fabric, markers...anything you can think of to decorate...where students could design their own shoes. TOMS is so special becasue for every pair of shoes purchased, they send a pair overseas to a child in need. Through the support of such an amazing staff, we send 132 pairs of shoes overseas!
So now it is time to take all of the things that I have learned from this intern type job and apply it to whatever the future may bring. I will rely on Christ to bring me through whatever may come to bring glory to His name. I cannot wait to see what lies ahead.
Waiting on Him
