Its about U!!
Howdy All!
I can't believe there is only less than a month to go until school kicks off gain! That being said I am very excited to see all my friends and class mates return to the Hurst! Its safe to say we have a lot of things planned for the return of the student body! The theme that MSG chose for the 2012-2013 school year is "It's all about U", this of course incorporates the fact that MSG is always there for the student body as we strive to meet the needs and wants of you the students.
This theme also incorporates the transition into a university as MSG looks to grow and adapt to insure we have a continued active role in the University and that we the students are continued to be heard by the university at every level! This is a theme that we will incorporate into our speaker series throughout the year. The speaker series saw MSG bring The Buried Life to campus last year and this year we are aiming big too and will have some very exciting news in the fall when everyone return!
Shirts about to hit the fan........
When Brian and I decided to run for MSG President and Vice President one of our major tasks for our year in office was to work on increasing school spirit! While this is not an easy task, MSG has decided to start the annual release of a school spirit shirt. The idea behind the shirt is that it will become a hugely popular piece of clothing among all Lakers! Of course MSG will be giving away shirts throughout the year and they will also be available for sale in Mercyhurst University Bookstore! The Idea for this came to us from a student (Adrianne Legruth!!) who suggested that this would be a good initiative for MSG to support as we look to increase Laker pride and spirit. I think this also demonstrates that MSG does listen to students and that we are always open to new ideas and suggestions, so keep them coming in!
Watch out for the shirt this fall, it looks pretty awesome thanks to our wonderful Event Coordinator who worked very hard on designing the shirt!
In other spirit news, MSG will be hosting our first ever spirit week this fall! We are currently in the planning process but watch this space for more information!
