Save the Date: December 5

Things are still in the planning stages, but a group of Wartburg Scholars students who went on the May Term to Costa Rica last year is planning a presentation on their learning and experiences.  If you are already enrolled in this course, or still on the fence, come learn what goes on from some students who will really let you know.

Welcome Back - Do You Want Points With That?

Welcome back to all our Scholars from their May Term trips and travels.  May Term travel courses can earn 2 Scholars Culture Points for students who fill out a report on their trip.  Students can earn an additional 2 Culture Points for giving a presentations on what they learned at a public event.  Students who are interested in this option should contact the Academic Committee to schedule their presentation for Fall 2013.

Scholars May BBQ

The Scholars BBQ is May 20, 2013 in Cedar Bend Park at 6 PM.  We will meet at the first shelter after the campground.  Bonfire with S'mores at 7:30 PM.  Rain location is Birgen's house.

Scholars BBQ and Camping

We will be having a BBQ at Cedar Bend Park on Monday, May 20, 2013 at 6 PM.  Dinner will be followed by a campfire with s'mores and camping.  You can come for one or more parts of the event, just make sure you RSVP by Wednesday, May 15 so that we have enough supplies.

Here are some of our students.  The first is from Japan/China and the rest are from Costa Rica

Ice Cream Friday

The Scholars gathered outside the Chapel today and meandered down to Dairy Queen for some early dessert.  We agreed that, as long as we were in the sun, the temperature was perfect.  As we walked, we planned our "Big Event" for May Term.  On Monday, May 20 we will be having a Scholars BBQ followed by campfire and camping event for anyone who wants to stay.  So, look for an RSVP form in your email box soon.

Spying on Scholars over May Term

It is fun to read the various blog posts from the May Term trips.  I especially like to catch Scholars in classes other than mine:
