Exciting Times..I think I need a paper bag


Halloween is at the end of the week!  Soon that desire to eat a whole bunch of candy and dress up like a gorilla can be fulfilled!  And you can even boogie at the Halloween Dance this Friday, Oct. 31st from 9pm- Midnight!   

In case you were wondering, the student run publication Ampersand, has now been approved!  This means that all they need is money, but student assembly is providing a hefty chunk of that, so get involved, help design, write, and feel awesome!

And, if you got a t-shirt from the awesome T-shirt Workshop put on by Print Club and Student assembly then you can feel really awesome.  Feel even more Awesome if you helped make the shirts! 

Or if you gave blood at the blood drive last week, which was a huge success by the way- then you just helped save lives- so infinitely more awesome.

If you are  wondering how you too can feel awesome, then come to the next student assembly meeting, next Tuesday in the Art Store Conference Room.  We are having a think group, which will discuss why you, as students, came to KCAI.

KCAI..Bob Barker Style

In this showcase we have many prizes under the theme of "Crisis" 

Do you feel stressed out with all this midterm mumbo- jumbo,  well de-stress and unwind with sticky food in your face!  S'mores night is back and better than ever, this year it will include:  Movie on the Lawn!  It could be yours Friday Sept. 17th at 8pm!

The next prize is a awesome new T-Shirt!  Come and Give Blood at the student assembly/ Red Cross Blood drive happening soon in Epperson Auditorium and win an awesometastic t-shirt (it is way better than a mug.)

Got a bike? Then this next prize will be great for you... its a brand new place to put your bike.  Student Assembly is asking, where do we need bike racks on campus?  Have a suggestion- tell your department's Student Assembly Representative.  

Finally, a prize you gamers have been waiting for... access to Ports, yay!   Long have you waited, but why, just tell Student Assembly which ports you need access to on the KCAI network-  We'll do the work for you.  You can contact us by coming to the meetings, Tuesdays at noon in the art store conference room, or you can tell your department's representative.  

Thank you for playing and remember, help control the pet population: get your pets spayed or neutered.

Vampires, flicks, and bribery

Is all that blood weighing you down?  Do you want to give some up for the health of others?  Well do we have good news for you!  Next Student Assembly meeting, Tuesday Oct. 7th, we will be meeting with the Red Cross in hopes of organizing a BLOOD DRIVE!

Then, after you stand up and fight for a blood drive, come and sit down to watch a movie on the Lawn!  Oct. 17th at 8pm we are watching "Heathers" - a flick about a social cast-out.  There will be s'mores and so much more!

Your special teacher, you know, the one that is really awesome, knows their stuff, and pushes you and your education.  Do you ever want to thank them, but just don't know how?  Well I suggest nominating them for the Special Faculty Award-  this gives them $5,000 bucks- think about how happy they'll be afterwards... might even be happy enough to extend the due date on that project that is looming overhead.

Student Acivities hits Jack-pot with "CLAY"

The activities committee, as you may know, led by coordinator Matt Gualco arranged for students to experience the Hip-Hop musical awesomeness that is "Clay" on Saturday Sept 20th. Sitting in the front row I was blown away- almost into Kansas- by the one man performance of an epic story about struggle and the pursuit of individual survival and expression. Sound amazing? Well it better, cuz it rocked my socks off. My advice to anyone who missed out on the opportunity, stay tuned for upcoming events cuz this year is going to require several pairs of socks.

IT's aLL happanin at OncE!

As we edge towards midterms and for most, the edge of sanity, Student assembly would like to remind you of a whole bunch of other things going on in our ever-changing lives.

So there is this thing call the president- so far he's been really crappy, and now we are getting a not-frequent-enough chance to boot him out for somebody better. The upcoming presidential debates will hopefully give us, you know the conscious voter people, an insight as to who is the weakest link. Student assembly will be screening the debates in Epperson Auditorium- the times are...

Oct. 2nd Foreign Policy w/ Milton Katz as discussion master (11:30pm-1:00pm)
Oct. 6th Vice Pres. Debates (2:30pm-4:00pm)
Oct. 8 Town Hall Debate (2:30pm-4:00pm)
Oct. 16th Domestic Policy w/ Michelle Fricke as discussion master (11:30pm-1:00pm)

Also Mark Salmon, the vice president of academic affairs, pretty important fella- will be listening to student issues, concerns, and knock knock jokes TUESDAY Sept. 23rd at 5:15 - think you don't care? What about FREE PIZZA it will be there too, and you can talk to it as much as you like as well.

When it comes to studio and everything else, student assembly encourages you to be proactive- no not that zit cream, but the notion of being prepared, cognizant, and active!
