Student Life

On behalf of the Residence Life Committee of LUCC, here is some important information related to student housing selection for 2018-19. Please feel free to direct students who have questions about housing for next year to any of the informational meetings for group housing or open office hours for general housing questions.

In order to select housing:

 Step 1:      Make certain your nonrefundable housing deposit is paid by April 9. The deposit must be paid to Financial Services either in person or online.

 Step 2:      Advance register on-line in Voyager for your 2018-2019 classes.

 Step 3:      Be certain your student account is current and paid up-to-date.

 Step 4:      Pick up and sign your Housing Contract AFTER you complete Advance Registration of classes. Contracts are available at the Campus Life Office (4^th floor Warch Campus Center) 8am-noon and 1-5pm until May 11^th.

 Step 5:      Bring your signed Housing Contract with you on the specific housing selection date:  See the webpage https://www.lawrence.edu/students/housing/checklist or come to open office hours!

Reminder! Beta Theta Pi will be picking up donations for the “Help for the Homeless” Hygiene drive this Saturday, March 3.  Please leave your donations in the boxes available in most buildings or on your office door knob (if you received a bag in advance) or email Tom Goldberg for pick-up.  Lawrence was not able to secure many donations for this cause in the past so your help is much appreciated. Additional information about this drive can be found in the original message below.

Not having access to hygiene products can mean not staying in school for children who get bullied due to their resulting lack of hygiene, and increased risk of diseases for homeless individuals of all ages. In particular, communicable diseases that can easily be mitigated through sustained hygiene often are able to spread in populations that don’t have access to above hygiene products.

All donations can be placed in the collection boxes located on the third floor of the Warch Campus Center, the third floor of the Wellness Center, the Steitz atrium, and the lobby of the Conservatory. In addition, some of you may find a bag with an information card on your door, in which case you can simply leave the donation there, and Beta Theta Pi will simply pick it up after the drive ends on Saturday, March 3rd. You can email me at thomas.b.goldberg@lawrence.edu if you have any questions regarding donations or the organizations involved, or you can also seek out more information at www.thefamily.net. We appreciate any and all help on behalf of the homeless community here in the Fox Valley.

Special thanks to The Family on 91.9 FM for making this event possible.

Thanks and Sincerely,

Tom Goldberg, Class of 2020

This week kicks off our campus’ branch of the “Help for The Homeless” Hygiene Drive! Currently, local homeless shelters in the Fox Valley and elsewhere receive no federal funding for hygiene products such as shampoo, soap, deodorant, and toothpaste, and rely almost exclusively on donations from the community to provide for these needs. This drive is also occurring off campus in Appleton and in other areas in the state of Wisconsin.
