Hey fellow Regents! Here we are toward the end of March and the temperature is below 40 degrees when it was just close to the 60s recently. What in the world is going on?! I don't know about you, but I need some nice spring weather to keep me extra motivated as the semester nears its end. I find it easier that way because I know that if I put the work in first then I will receive the reward of enjoying the nice weather in the end!

Something really neat I found that was going on this week on campus was for a 12-year old boy. Max, the young boy, is a terminal cancer patient that Rockford College was sending a big "thinking of you" card, too. It is impossible to imagine what Max and other people in his condition go through. It really inspires you to say good things to him. I signed the card myself and saw many other students taking the time to so as well. It is amazing the power a large group of people can have when they come together to make a difference in the life of another human being. This whole experience made me proud to be a part of Rockford College.

If you still are interested in signing the card, it will be available at the Mail Desk Area tomorrow, Friday, March 25, from around 12 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. It will also be available in the Admissions office from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. You are also more than welcome to submit your own cards.

Thanks for being great people here at Rockford College and I wish you all well!

Until next time...

Jake
