Did somebody order an African Steel Drum Band? Because they are ready to play!

That’s right!  Tonight in Rockland we enjoyed some live entertainment while chomping down on some authentic African foods in honor of Multicultural Awareness Week.  My favorite was the shrimp and rice stir fry!  Oh man was it delicious! The line was so long that it extended to the Waffle Makers at one point in time.  But hey, it was totally worth it.  Another tasty treat on the menu tonight was the apple crisp with vanilla ice cream on top.  By far the best thing I have ever eaten in Rockland, ever!  I cannot wait to see what Rockland has in store for us for the remainder of the week!

Hello I Am… March 8, 2010

Personally inviting you to enjoy Multicultural Awareness Week at Stevenson University!

Today marked the beginning of a very exciting and diverse week here at Stevenson called Multicultural Awareness Week.  I walked into Rockland tonight to make myself a shirt and declare who I am and why I am different.  Student Activities handed out the shirts and wanted students to focus on the things that make up different.  Putting “Hello, I am Awesome” wasn’t quite cutting it this time around.  I decided to put that I am “A Survivor” because I am proud of the fact that I have survived many things in my life. 

Around campus I have seen all kind of shirts!  Some funny, some serious, and some are just straight forward.  I plan on wearing my shirt Wednesday through the Tunnel of Oppression where I will be giving tours.  It starts at 5 and ends at 10 so please take the time to come down for this special ten minute tour!
