Bring a Guest to College at URock
From November 1
– 5, we invite you to bring a guest (who might be a prospective
student) to URock to experience your classes and the URock environment. We
see this as a great way to help prospective students get to know this
place. Guests will be asked to sign in at the front desk.
Join the Lip Dub!
URockers is
making a lip dub! A lip
dub is a type of video that combines lip synching and audio dubbing
to make a music video.
We’ve got the talent and the music. If you are interested in
participating, contact Ashley Bickford and let her know you want
to be a part! You can also sign up on the URock Facebook page. Join the
fun!
Join the URock Writer’s Club
URock student
Joshua Wallace is organizing a Writer’s Club. The first meeting will
be held Monday, November 1, at 7:00PM in room #402 (art room). The
Writer’s Club is open to any student for the purpose of helping by
reading others’ works and sharing feedback. All genres of writing are
welcome. Contact Joshua or show up for the first meeting.
The Knox County Humane Society Needs Volunteers
On October 15th
staff from the Knox Humane Society visited to outline some of the help they
need from volunteers. Their list is long and varied. If you love to work
around animals, this could be very rewarding for you. Please contact Joan
Vargas, Volunteer Coordinator at the Humane Society for more
info.
Jensen’s Pharmacy is Open at Breakwater
Jensen’s
Pharmacy, a new Rockland business, is open on the 1st floor of Breakwater.
They have good coffee, muffins and scones, and flu shots, too.
Spring Registration is Getting Close
Registration
for the spring term opens soon. UMA degree candidates may register on
November 8th. Open registration begins November 10. You can build your wish
list in Maine Street now! Check here for all campus registration dates.
And, check here for a preview of the spring
schedule at URock.
Job Notices – Check the Bulletin Board
URock is often
contacted by local employers looking to hire. Sometimes it is a strain on a
business to conduct a wide scale employee search and so they look to the
university as a reliable source of capable, talented employees. If you are job
hunting, be sure to check the bulletin board outside of Beverly’s
office for postings. We hang notices the minute we get them.
Student Discount Cards
Please pick up
your laminated student discount card in the front office. See here for a list of businesses offering discounts.
