Attention UMA Graduates! If you expect to graduate in May or August 2008, submit a "Request for Graduation" card to Claudia Quintal by April 1. You can submit the form through the UMA website: http://www.uma.edu/Registrar.html. Scroll to the bottom and you will see the link to the form. You may also pick up a graduation card at the URock front desk. UMA's commencement will be on May 10, 2008, at 10:30 AM at the Augusta Civic Center. URock's local celebration will be Sunday, May 4th at 2:00PM. Career Fair - Round #2 Tomorrow, Wednesday March 19, from 5:00-7:00PM, meet local employers who are hiring now, particularly in Mental Health and Human Services as well as other health fields. We expect 7 reputable area employers. Bring your resume! This event will be held at the Rockland Career Center (2nd floor). Even if you are not looking for a job TODAY, this is good experience in job hunting. Summer Registration Summer registration continues with no payment due until May. Summer registration is still being done in the old student registration system. Fall Registration Fall class sign-up will be on the new MAINE STREET registration system. I can't stress enough that this will be a big change in procedures. Right now, UMA degree students may complete the "Early Early" form for UMA fall courses (only). Our staff will begin to put these registrations into the system next week which is technically before UMA's registration opens! There is a new form that will be used if you are taking a non-UMA course. Non-UMA course registration will open sometime in April. Lunchtime Yoga Certified Kripalu instructor, Garrett Vail, will be teaching a yoga class at URock on Wednesdays, April 2 through May 7, from noon to 1:00PM. There's only room for 7 people so you must sign up at the front desk. Costs for the program are covered by the URock SA. Shopping Bags! The blue nylon URock bags (just $5) make great grocery shopping bags. They are roomy and strong. Please help our environment by taking a URock bag to the grocery store and say, "No thanks!" to the plastic shopping bags.
