Welcome Back!

Spring Break is sadly over, but that means we can get back to our fun TDC events!

The final Dialogue on Diversity, TDC's educational event, is coming up and it focuses on the treatment of aboriginal people internationally. Come learn about the aboriginal people of North and South America, Russian Eskimos, and Australian Aboriginals. Our guest speaker Dr. Wu of the Modern Languages and Literature department will give a special presentation on Taiwan! It should be a very fun and educational evening, on Tuesday, March 27 at 6:30 in Waxahachie. Be there!

Longing for the fun of Spring Break after getting back to class? This Friday, CCC is having an Origami Lecture and Demo from 3 to 5 in Tehuacana. Have fun learning the art of origami and take home some nice decorations!

Spring Break

Spring Break is almost upon us! I'm sure we are all more than ready for it, but before you leave, TDC has just a few reminders:

1. ASR budget proposals must be submitted by THIS FRIDAY. You don't have to present, just get the submissions for the remainder of your events in as soon as possible!
2. Vote for Atunga James Anassi (upcoming senior) and Breanna Willis (upcoming sophomore) for ASR senators!! They are both officers in TDC groups, so they can help the rest of ASR understand the importance of our programs.
3. There is no executive meeting tonight. Instead, you should go see the Vagina Monologues! All proceeds go towards the Battered Women's Shelter. Tickets are on sale in CCI in the Coates lobby and doors open at 6:30.

That's it! Make it through midterms and have an amazing Spring Break!

Black-Jew Dialogues

TDC's big social event of the year is THIS Tuesday!  The Black-Jew Dialogues is a hilarious two-actor multimedia mix of sketches, improv, and theater that reveals the absurdity of prejudice and hate. It's not just for "Blacks" or "Jews." It's an exhilarating and insightful look at the state of race and cultural relations in America. 7 p.m. Tuesday, Feb. 28, in Laurie Auditorium.

Happy Valentine's Day!

Love is in the air today and I'm sure everyone stopped by SDA's table in Coates today or previous days to send a Valentine to your favorite ally and sign their petition. If not, get over there! Enjoy the rest of the day with people you love or at least with delicious chocolate!
