The Transfer Connection
Greetings,
January is a time for many to organize. Each person will have their own organization style. Some color code courses and folders. Some like tape flags. Some keep everything in a PDA. Figure out your style and stay organized. Put events, exams, study groups--everything--on your calendar. Don't forget to organize your bills and track your income & expenses so that next tax season everything is ready.
GET REC'd 2009! Be ready to celebrate the two "hottest" days in January - GET REC'd 2009 will hit campus from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Jan. 22-23 at the UNL Campus Rec Center. Over 90 vendors will be on hand to showcase their wares and products for UNL students, faculty and staff. The Food Zone is open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. each day.
