Dear Eagles, For those celebrating Passover, I wish you a very happy holiday. Be sure to check out BC Dining and BC Hillel's Passover-inspired menu offerings this week.
As we approach the end of April and with finals right around the corner, I remind you to get outside and enjoy this warmer weather, take breaks, and destress. So, to that end, I highlight the Center for Student Wellness' Mental Health Awareness Week featuring events dedicated to highlighting self-care tips and healthy practices. Next, be sure to support all the amazing artistic talent and creativity across campus. by attending Arts Fest from Thursday
through Saturday. Finally, tomorrow, C21 is hosting an Agape Latte featuring Fr. Tony Penna, and this Friday stop by Maloney 450 for the Office of the Dean of Students Deans and Donuts event and grab a donut or two! Yours in Community,
Dr. Shawna Cooper Whitehead
Vice President for Student Affairs
