It’s the last Coffee Hour of the year! Come be jolly and spread cheer with friends and other CHPers for the last coffee hour before Winter Break (and before finals)! In the spirit of the holidays, we will be learning about the different ways people celebrate this time of year. Take a break from studying to see your friends one last time before Winter Break and score some free bagels, donuts, juice, and coffee!
CHSC General Meeting on Wednesday
This week is CHSC’s last general meeting of the quarter, and we’re going out with a bang! Join us this Wednesday at 5 PM in the Locus to find out if YOUR HALL won is one of the two Penny Drive Winners, pre-order your 2008-2009 CHP Shirt, and get some information about our upcoming events, including Semi-Formal! AND if you’ve gotten a lottery ticket at any one of our CHSC meetings (in fact, you can get one at this week’s meeting), we’ll be handing out either 2 movie tickets or 2 free tickets to Semi-formal to this quarter’s lucky lottery winner!! So be sure to be there for a fun activity, CHP updates, and food! See you there!
Update your address!
Hey CHPers! Please make sure that we have your correct address by going to the following website: http://web.due.uci.edu/chp/updatecontactinfo.aspx . It will show you what we have in our database, as well as what the registrar has. It is important that we have accurate information, because we do mail things out occasionally. It will only take a minute to update. Thank you for your help!
**Important Reminders**
The end of the quarter is almost here, so procrastinating is not an option! Check your transcripts to make sure that you don’t have any “NR”s or holds that you need to deal with. Any “NR” from the previous quarter (Spring or Summer, if applicable) will turn to an “F” at the end of this quarter, so take care of it now before it is too late! Also, if you have a hold on your record, talk to an academic counselor to find out what you need to do to remove it. There are several types of holds, and if the hold is not removed by the end of this quarter, you will be dropped from your winter quarter classes.
If you have not yet done so, remember to sign up for the honors core class that you are supposed to enroll in. If you have problems enrolling, please let us know right away. Freshmen, you should have already picked up your authorization codes, but if not, please come see us in the office as soon as possible. If you are not planning on taking the courses laid out in your course plan, you must file a petition to waive or postpone the course. Please talk to an honors advisor if you have any questions about this process.
Scribendi Cover Design Contest
Dear WRHC members and Scribendi liaisons:
As we near the month of December, we’d like to remind you that Scribendi fine art and literary magazine, produced at the University of New Mexico, is still accepting cover design submissions for the 2009 issue. The deadline, December 12, is coming up soon.
We began our cover contest in 2008 in order to give undergraduate honors students from the western region of the U.S. an opportunity to have their designs displayed on an issue of Scribendi. This year we are continuing this tradition, and we need your students’ help!
The design should cover the front, spine, and back of the magazine, and it should include the words Scribendi 2009.
Specifications:
-Works must be 300 DPI
-.tiff and .eps files only
-CMYK color; not RGB
-No file compression
-File must be PC compatible
Cover design submissions may be submitted electronically or through regular mail. The submission form and instructions can be found on our website at Scribendi.unm.edu/Submissions/forms.htm.
Cover designs from previous issues may be viewed at Scribendi.unm.edu/Archives/previouseditions.htm.
In order to be eligible to submit a cover design, students must be undergraduates enrolled in an honors program at a school that is a member of the Western Regional Honors Council. Additionally, the student’s school must have paid its dues to the WRHC for this year. More information can be found at Wrhc.cieja.com/.
With this email we’ve included a cover contest flyer in PDF form that you can use to get the word out to your honors students. We would greatly appreciate it if you’d take a few moments to make copies of the flyer and put them up where your honors students will see them.
If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at Scribendi.unm.edu or call us at (505) 277-7407. Again, the deadline for cover design submissions if December 12. Thank you.
