Lend Support to Laurier

Hopefully everyone had a safe and fun St. Paddy’s day! DJ O$AP was one of many guests at The Hoose where his roommates were master hosts for a Hawk infested St. Paddy’s day party. No, it wasn’t the one that got busted and ended up on Buzzfeed, but shout out to those guys! What an awesome representation of the partying community here at Laurier. Ezra was far from a let down, despite the cold weather the street was filled by a green sea and happy cops – many of which took photos and shared some laughs.

Easter is coming up this weekend, so it’s pretty exciting to have a short week! If you haven’t heard though, there is a make-up day on the Monday following the last week of classes. We suppose it’s still better than what UW is doing… holding classes on a Saturday. Be sure to consume copious amounts of chocolate and home-cooked food this weekend and come back to school rested and ready to start getting ready for exams.

Lend Your Leg is happening this Wednesday! Roll up one of your pant legs to show support for this cause. Lend Your Leg is a day dedicated to raising awareness of the landmines that remain in numerous places, especially in the East. These landmines took about $3 to make during the war but take thousands of dollars to remove; many countries cannot afford this and innocent civilians are constantly at risk of setting one off. There will be stations and speakers all around campus on Wednesday, be sure to check some of them out!

Unfortunately Laurier lost one of its Golden Hawks this weekend in a car accident, he was a second year student named Travis Brown. We want to send our condolences to his family and friends, and want to remind anyone grieving that there are many resources around the school available to you.

Have a safe and happy week, we’ll see you next time!
