Day on the Quad

August 27, 2014

We're off and running! Another school year has started. Each semester USU holds a Week of Welcome to help the students get back into the swing of things. This year Sadie and I (Mindy) will be interning with Ryan Barfuss at the Student Health and Wellness Center. This was our first event of the year. We partnered up with SAAVI (Sexual Assault and Anti Violence Info) and help them give out information about the programs that they have available. It was fun to interact with the students, and with each other. It started off a little rainy, but it cleared up and the weather was great. Before the event we purchased two boxes of bananas, and by the end they were all given away. I think that having bananas to give away helped emphasize health, which is what we are representing. Although, we still had some candy too. The students came and asked questions, took some of the educational flyers, and had the opportunity to sign up the help volunteer at our up coming events. During the event Ryan challenged me to see how many water bottles I could find. I ended up with 7 water bottles and a couple of shirts as well. Overall the event was a success!
