Registration is still open for the President’s Opening Day Gathering and Convocation! Responses will be taken until noon on Friday, August 27.

The Opening Day Gathering will take place in Schaeffer Auditorium on August 30. A continental buffet at 7:30 a.m. will precede the annual address by President Cevallos and presentations by our union and senate leaders at 8 a.m.

Convocation will take place on Sunday, August 29 at 4:15-5 p.m. in Keystone Arena.

The Student Union and Involvement Services is holding student staff training this week. Since part of training is a community service project, we have chosen Hope Lodge, a facility run by the American Cancer Society that houses cancer patients and their families while they receive outpatient treatment to be the recipient.

We are asking the KU community to donate the following items for our student staff to collect and deliver:

If you are interested in participating, please drop your items off at the McFarland Student Union info desk anytime Wednesday, August 25-Friday August 27. For more information, please e-mail Jen Topp: jtopp516@live.kutztown.edu.

To submit items for the Daily Brief, please e-mail dbrief@kutztown.edu (no attachments) to the University Relations Office by 2 p.m. on the day prior to publication.
