Patapsco is “Peacing” Together SU September 27, 2010
Posted by Marina in : Fall 2010 , add a comment
The Patapsco Penguins are working hard to create a sense of community within the resident hall. How are they accomplishing this? By hosting events that bring people together and share diversity. Their highly acclaimed event “Peacing” Together SU focused on bringing all the residents together, piece by piece, to create a safe, peaceful environment. I love the fact that this “puzzle” of sorts is on display in the lobby of their building. Not only is it colorful to look at, but it is neat to look at all the different drawings and names on each individual piece. Wonderful job, Patapsco!

Get Into the Spirit September 27, 2010
Posted by Marina in : Fall 2010 , add a commentThe spirit of Halloween, that is!
Now I know it is still September. But Stevenson students are gearing up for the spook-tastic Halloween season already! Friday, SU students had the opportunity to take a trip to Fell’s Point and take a ghost tour for only $5 compliments of Student Activities!!!! It is true! And creepy! Some of my residents decided to take the tour with outher SU students and said “Fell’s Point was so awesome! I want to go again with a bunch of friends… because I’m pretty sure we saw a ghost!” – Rebecca, Class of 2014. I wish I would have gone on the trip, but I’m sure Student Activities has more Halloween adventures up their sleeve so be on the lookout!

Hispanic Heritage Month September 27, 2010

Did you know that September is National Hispanic Heritage Month?
Lucky for us at Stevenson, we are exposed to various events on campus that enrich our sense of different cultures. Earlier in the month, Western Run held a Welcome Week fiesta where students came and played hispanic oriented games and ate lots of great food! Rockland, with their very wide, universal selection, is no different. They celebrated Hispanic Heritage month by serving authentic hispanic food to hungry students. I went in to see what all the buzz was about and I was greeted by a Sodexo worker in a sombrero!! It was very interesting. As I walked past the different food stations, festive hispanic music filled my ears and foods such as tortas, black beans and rice, and stuffed poblanos filled my stomach! The night was truly one to remember, and celebrate.
