Good morning, Falcons! Hope you’re enjoying Kindness Week - today is Try It Tuesday, so your challenge is to try to make a new friend, try to sit somewhere new, and to try a game at lunch! Keep submitting your selfies using the QR codes posted around campus. So far, seniors are in the lead, but juniors and sophomores are following close behind! Freshmen, you still have plenty of time to close the gap! If you want ice cream on Friday, submit those selfies! We’ll have more activities every day this week, so keep up the kindness and stay focused on the challenges so you can win that delicious prize!
