OSU STUDENT MOVE IN HAPPENS THIS SUNDAY

More than 3,500 residents are expected to arrive Sunday, many with family and friends. Increased traffic and congestion are expected around campus. More than 500 campus and community volunteers will help with move-in. New this year, on-campus residents will enjoy several upgrades in their dining experience, including the use of reusable takeout containers, that will save an estimated 600,000 one-use containers from going to the landfill.
Other changes include late-night food delivery services that students can order using their meal plan; and a new restaurant, named Five Four One, in McNary Dining Center that features local, natural and vegan and vegetarian foods.
For more information on these events, contact University Housing & Dining Services at 541-737-4771 or housing@oregonstate.edu.

PHOTO(S) OF THE WEEK!

the group
Lydia Perry recently attended the Casting for Recovery fly fishing retreat. It’s a unique program that combines breast cancer education and peer support with the therapeutic sport of fly fishing and is open to breast cancer survivors of all ages, in all stages of treatment and recovery, and is free to participants. Most of us know (or will know) someone who has received a breast cancer diagnosis in their lifetime, and all of those women are eligible to participate. There are two in Oregon every year (the next is Oct 23-25) and they are held in 37 states. GO LYDIA!! Here’s the link: http://castingforrecovery.org/
