100 Days Until Commencement

Friday, March 7 | 6-9 p.m.
Viking Room | Memorial Hall

It’s the soft start to commencement season – the 100 Days event!

As seniors finalize their capstones and faculty and staff send another set of Lawrentians out to make their mark, please consider gathering for this casual open house style event which will include a Taste Of Appleton in and around the Viking Room/lower level of Memorial Hall. Food and soft drinks will be provided, with access to beer, wine, and a signature class drink in the VR for those of drinking age. Students, please bring your ID or proof of age.

Staff and faculty will gather with you to share stories, catch up outside of the classroom, hear your post graduation plans and concerns, and generally continue urging you on as you emerge in the greater world with new perspectives. Seniors: you are officially in the home stretch, the last chapter and verse, the final movement of the composition, and at the start of the third act. Commencement is 100 days away (don’t freak out!).

Friday, March 7th
Memorial Hall Lower Level
6p-9p
Attire: Come as you are

Chapman Parking, February 28 & March 1

As we prepare for Admitted Student Day, vehicles in the Chapman lot will need to be moved by Friday, February 28 at noon. Staff should consider alternative parking options on that day. 

Signs will be in place indicating that the lot is reserved for an admissions event, and we ask that the signage not be disregarded. Visitors will be issued specific parking decals for their windows, and those without the specific event decal may be ticketed or towed. Ticketing and towing will be enforced. 

Parking in the Chapman lot may resume on Saturday evening, March 1, after 5 p.m.

Faculty & Staff Request for Group Housing

The LUCC Residence Life Committee is looking for faculty or staff interested in being a voting member of the group housing process.

Those who are voting committee members would ensure that the group housing process is fair and equal to all groups applying. This is a commitment that lasts only as long as the housing selection process (March 8, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.; subject to change).

There are currently two positions open for applicants. You may not apply if you are an advisor for any student org that is already within the group houses or is considering group housing.

Applications will be accepted until March 5 at 11:59 p.m. If you are interested, please reach out to Antonia Lagunilla, co-chair of the LUCC Res Life Committee (antonia.lagunilla@lawrence.edu).
