*Newsletter – December 2*

*Hamlet Tickets Please!*

The National Theater of London LIVE performance of Hamlet is on Thursday,
December 9th. If you signed on to attend either the 2:00PM or 7:00PM showing
at Rockland’s Strand Theater then your ticket is available through your
class. However, if you miss getting your ticket in class, let your
instructor know you will pick it up at the URock front office. Thanks again
to the URock Student Association for sponsoring our ticket purchases. Enjoy
the show!

*Spring Registration is Ongoing*

Registration for the spring term is open. You can self-register in Maine
Street. Check here<http://learn.maine.edu/rockland/highlights/registration-for-spring-2011-is-just-around-the-corner/>for
*all *campus registration dates. And, check
here<http://learn.maine.edu/rockland/files/2010/07/Spring-2011-UROCK-Early-In-House-Guide-1018101.pdf>for
the spring schedule at URock. Schedule an advising appointment for
help
in choosing the best courses to meet your needs. If you are unable to see an
advisor right away, look at your program checksheet and self-register in
Maine Street. Then when you meet with an advisor, you can double check your
choices.

*Advising Appointments*

Beverly and Deborah see as many students as time allows. *All appointments
are booked through the front office staff.* If you need to cancel, please
call the office as you would with any other professional appointment. We
have a good number of no shows and this is frustrating when some other
students are waiting long periods to get an appointment scheduled.

*Mental Health Counseling Available Spring Term*

Starting in January, Richard Chalmers, a graduate student in mental health
counseling at USM will begin a one semester internship which includes
offering individual counseling to members of the URock community. This
service is free of charge. If you need support with adjusting to school,
depression, anxiety, problems in relationships or would just like someone to
talk to, please contact either Bev or Deb for a referral. Richard is
currently a graduate student at USM, has a Bachelor of Arts Degree in
psychology and has studied art at the Rhode Island School of Design. He has
worked extensively with mens groups including Maine Coast Men. His
background includes several meditation retreats at the Insight Meditation
Society and Morgan Bay Zendo. Richard believes in an active, creative,
problem solving approach to counseling and is looking forward to working at
URock.

*URock Writer’s Club – Off and Running*

The URock Writer’s Club is off to a great start and the second meeting had
twice as many participants. The next meeting is December 8th. Contact
student Joshua Wallace <[log in to unmask]> for more info.

*Snow Cancellations!*

It’s the time of year when we need to worry about storms and school
closings. If we need to make any cancellations, there are many ways for you
to get the news. The URock web site <http://www.learn.maine.edu/rockland>will
always have the most up to date information. You can also call the office
answering machine at 596-6906, check Village Soup online or TV channels 6, 8
and 13. We try to make decisions two hours before class start times. If the
cancellation is during the day, please try to get your information online or
through TV channels rather than call the URock office. Our phone lines get
jammed up fast and cancellations are a frantic time in the office.
