MAY We Meet Again

As the school year comes to a close, we've had tons of fun programming as a hall.

May 7th brought our annual Birthday Party for the hall as 1501 was dedicated "Harris Hall" on May 7, 2002. This annual celebration included cakes, ice cream sundaes, and a healthy round of singing "Happy Birthday!" to the hall that we call home.





We also had our annual End of the Year Party with S'mores and superlatives voted on by the hall. Unfortunately, this year the event got rained out and we had to make it indoors but we still had a fun time.





Lastly, we had a fun senior celebration watching the quintessential high school film: Mean Girls. With tons of food and friends, it was an amazing time before we graduate this weekend.

With that in mind, I would like to thank you all for joining us this year. On behalf of the entire Residential Student Leadership and professional Residential Counselor teams, it has been an absolute pleasure to live with each and everyone of our 86 student residents over the course of this year. We hope you've had tons of fun and our excited for whatever the next phase brings for you.

If you are returning to the hall next year, you have a fantastic RSL team for you and I hope you enjoy.

CD's: Lucas U. and Becky M.

C: Sandra D. and Becca E.

Until we meet again.

01D Wing Superlatives

One of people's favorite parts of a yearbook is looking at the Senior Superlatives. We thought a fun end of the year program would be to implement Wing Superlatives. Students emailed our Wing Guides creatives superlatives for each of their wingmates and then the Wing Guides determined which superlative to award each wing member. The superlatives chosen were pretty silly but the students had a great time hearing what superlative was selected for each student. To add extra fun, we printed out the superlative as a certificate and taped candy to it.

01D Molding Your Identity Program

During the previous weekend, 01D had a fun program where students were able to use air-dry clay to create different models of items they identified with. Students who attended used their art skills to create items such as a rose, hammer, rhino, snapchat logo, etc. The students who attended had a great time and enjoyed making fun molds. I was really impressed with some of their art skills.
