will help participants (in just one hour) re-awaken personal communication
skills needed for success in this ever changing world. Don’t miss it!

*Where’s My Coffee?*
This year’s Student Association has decided to spend less money on coffee
and more money on activities. Therefore, coffee cards have been
discontinued and a Keurig Coffee Machine (good stuff!) has been purchased
and installed. Keurig’s “K-cups” are available for just $1 in the vending
machine and there are lots of flavors. Or, you can bring your own K-cup
from home and brew it here at URock. Also, check out the expanded selection
of drinks and snacks in the new machines.
*Proctored Test Times*
If you need to take an exam other than during its regular class time, you
will need to schedule your test through the URock front office. Our testing
hours through the fall will be Tuesdays 8:00 – 11:00AM and Fridays, 4:00 –
7:00PM. A photo ID is required and, in many cases, instructor permission.
*Watch for Other Student Activities This Fall*
The URock SA is planning more fall activities. Stay tuned for more details,
or email URock SA President, Martin Faracci <[log in to unmask]>.
*Enjoy Our Picnic Tables by the Shore!*
We urge you to enjoy the view and cool breezes down at the shore at the
URock picnic tables. There is a cigarette butt disposer by the tables.
Please put all other trash in the dumpster.

We have just received a shipment of new URock sweatshirts, sweatpants,
T-shirts, long sleeved shirts and more. There’s lots of new colors and
designs. Check out the inventory.
