This week at Arts Scholars...

Welcome back everyone! We hope you are settling in to the 2018/2019 school year! All Arts Scholars will receive these newsletter weekly. They contain reminders and information about upcoming events in the community.

Field trip sign ups!

Field trip sign ups are now available on Canvas. Students should sign up for only ONE field trip by next Tuesday.  If additional seats are still available, we'll open them up for students to make use of closer to the date of the trip. Please find details on how to sign up in the Announcements section of Canvas.

Scholars Weekly

Every Wednesday, a Scholars Community newsletter is distributed via email with all sorts of important announcements and items you'll not want to pass up.  If you are in Scholars, you'll probably find the Weekly somewhere in your inbox.  Unearth it, read it, and make use of this fantastic (and FREE) resource.

ARTS Advisory Board

If you are an Arts Scholar, then you are already a member of the Arts Advisory Board!  Thing is, the AAB is a student run entity that relies on its members to contribute to making your scholars experience a richer one through the planning of special events like coffee houses or talent showdowns with other Scholars programs.  The sky's the limit!  That said, the next meeting of AAB (open to anyone in Arts) will be held Monday (September 10) following the first year colloquium (at 7:15pm) in CCC1100. 

Ideas?

No ideas are too big or small!  Contribute your creative ideas or list of arts interests you'd like to explore to ARTS Advisory Board.
