Spring Break Fever

Its officially starting... tomorrow that is.  For many it even started today.  This whole week has been chaos.  Tests, papers, quizzes, projects... all leading up to Spring Break.  I don't know about anyone else, but I've been waiting for this ever since Christmas Break got over.  It was hard for everyone to focus this week, but we've all made it to that last day!

This week was the Coe Fund's Tuition Run-Out festivities.  The Coe Fund is just one of the many things I am involved in here on campus.  The Coe Fund is the anual giving program here at Coe College.  It helps fund scholarships and financial aid, campus signage, musical instruments, library books, and even athletic equipment.  As you can see, without the Coe Fund Coe's campus wouldn't be able to function as well!  This week was really focused at giving back to the Coe campus.  In celebration of all the Coe Fund does for us (and our financial aid packages) they had a roster full of fun events to let us know how important philanthropy is at Coe.

Monday- They delivered brownies to random classes
Tuesday- They had a Dougie eating contest in the Caf!  Everyone watched competitive eaters from across campus take on Dougie Peters in a steak and mashed potato battle.  Dougie is the equipment manager here at Coe and even though he didn't win- he put up a fight!  The winner happened to be Jacob Deaton! 

Dougie is smack dab in the middle of all the competitive eaters!

Wednesday- We all signed a giant thank-you card to Coe donors, and picked up a free Coe Fund t-shirt!
Thursday- The Coe Fund is currrently hosting an ice cream social in Upper Gage, complete with a free pair of spring break shades in order to get us all ready for Spring Break!  They also have for the seniors, a free Thursday after-class libation! (responsible drinking only of course)

So even through all the chaos, the Coe Fund still provided some relief for us students before we all part our ways tomorrow.  Only two classes standing in my way!

Kohawk love,
