~The Month in Review~

How is it almost December?

It seems as though November just flew by.

In the beginning of November, members of our staff attended RLAGS, a conference for student affairs professionals working in New Hampshire. It was wonderful to learn tips and tricks on how to create inclusive communities from different people around the state. I must say, my favorite presentation was given by none other than Miss Greater Derry, Stephanie Iacuzio! Stephanie presented on the importance of personal safety on college campuses. I am also so proud of our UNH team, who placed first in the Case Study Competition!

What a wonderful way to kick off the holiday season! I had a blast volunteering Friday night at the Urban Forestry Center's Festival of Trees. Proceeds go to scholarships for students at the Thompson School and other organizations. ‪#‎MNH‬ ‪#‎Portsmouthliving‬

Now, on to graduate school applications. Two down, two to go!

Good luck to all you high school and college seniors out there.

We had a fabulous time at #HowellfortheAnimals to benefit the#cochecoanimalshelter! Thankful to have an army of volunteers from our Hall Council who are willing to volunteer at events around the state! #hallcouncil#xsenpride #unh #MNH #lovemyjob

On a different note, it is that time of year for College Seniors to be taking the dreaded GRE. I just took it yesterday. Luckily, I studied. I would like to give a shoutout to the websites and fabulous people that got me to where I am today (cheesy, but you know it is true).

1. Shoutout to the Princeton Review. You were always there when I needed you most. And, you were free. Princeton Review GRE

2. Shoutout to the GRE Flash Cards HD app. Your vocabulary words actually showed up on my test, and your sense of humor (some puns are thrown into the definitions!) kept me going. GRE Flash Cards HD

3. Shoutout to my RA's (especially Dee), residents, friends, and family. Thank you for keeping me ready to rock in roll.

When in doubt... JUST DO IT.
