Sorry it's been a while since I've done this. I've been very busy with going over applications and meeting with students coming to visit. Campus has been very busy this week, and will continue to be so for quite a while. The Career & Internship Fair took place this Wednesday (February 10th) and had over 40 different businesses and organizations attend who were looking for students to hire for internships and jobs. The VU Dance Ensemble will be performing jazz, ballet, modern and tap dance during its annual spring performances Feb. 12-14 (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday). Their dances were choreographed by students and faculty alike.
The Social Action Leadership Team (SALT), along with the Valparaiso International Student Association, students of the Law School and other on campus organizations are leading a campus-wide effort called “Valpo has a Heart for Haiti” to raise funds for victims of the recent earthquake. Their goal is to raise $15,000 by Spring Break (February 26th). A monetary donation can be made at the following website: https://www.valpo.edu/haitirelief/. Of the money raised, 80 percent will be sent to Lutheran World Relief and the Red Cross. The remaining 20 percent will go to micro-philanthropic, grassroots efforts focused on relief.
Also, Owl City is performing tonight (Thursday, February 11th) in the Harre Union Ballrooms. The concert is sold out, and students have been looking forward to this all year.
