ANNOUNCEMENTS

Dr. Stephanie Morris, K-State Counseling Services, will present APDPro: Mindfulness in Design today at 3:30 pm in Pierce Commons.

Be Safe! It is darker earlier now. Please watch out for your own safety and security as well as that of your classmates--walk in groups or use Wildcat Walk; notify campus police if you see any suspicious people or activity in and around Seaton Hall; and, keep studio/Edmond's doors locked. Taking your computer tower and other valuable equipment home over Fall and Winter Breaks is wise.

The food drive sponsored by SPA ends this Friday. Please donate non-perishable items to boxes located at the front of each studio, or in Seaton 302. 

Message from Jim Hood regarding IT/Technology Committee:

Students IT Forum!

My name is Jim Hood and I am a member of the IT/Technology Committee for the School of Arch/LARCP. As one of your student representatives I would like to take the time to invite you to participate in your education needs and contact me with your IT issues, desires or technology ideas. Please take the time to be involved, it truly helps the departments to understand and adjust to a field that seems to change before you learn the current versions. Hardware, software and cost are all areas. Speak up and be heard!!
