See Othello In HD at the Strand
The URock SA is sponsoring free student tickets to the Strand’s HD National Theater of London performance of Othello on September 26. You have the choice of a 2:00PM or 7:00PM show. Sign up for your free ticket at the URock front desk no later than Friday, September 20.
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 has been planning more fall activities including sponsoring student tickets to the Common Ground Fair on Saturday, September 21. Stay tuned for more details, or email URock SA President, Martin Faracci.
Beware of Add-Drop!
Registration and add-drop continue for fall 2013 classes. Please check individual campus add-drop dates and check with financial aid about any consequences if you change your number of credit hours. For help with the add-drop process, contact the URock office for an advising time, or ask for staff assistance.
More Rte 1 Construction Coming!
George C. Hall projects will start work on Camden Street the week of September 10. The work will begin north of the Breakwater near the Circle K gas station and move south, one service line crossing at a time. This work should not interrupt our building in any way, but the traffic issues will begin. Traffic will be maintained at 2 lanes. The new water main from MacDonalds to the front of the Breakwater Building should start around 9/11 and work from MacDonalds north, ending at our building. The primary inconvenience in regards to access to and from our parking areas will occur the week of 9/16. Sorry for the inconveniences. Please plan your travels accordingly.
Enjoy Our Picnic Tables by the Shore!
If the rain ever stops, 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.
URock Sweats and Tees
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.
