WANT TO BE A CORBAN EXPERIENCE HOST?!

Take this time to reflect back on your own Corban Experience weekend, and how can you can make it memorable for someone else beginning their college journey. I am getting registrations left and right, and I can’t wait to let God lead me in pairing them up with their awesome hosts (that would be YOU!). Let me have an opportunity to bless you, as you bless someone by opening your “home” and sharing your encouragement about college life!

FLU SEASON!
If you haven’t yet experienced this years flu, you may in the coming weeks!
HERE ARE A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER…
• Wash your hands with soap a lot! And use your towel to turn off the water.
• Stay away from friends who have a cough, fever, or other signs of flu.
• Every dorm has over the counter medications in the white boxes, near the kitchens (cough drops, cold and flu medicine, etc.).
• Get lots of rest and drink fluids (sounds simple, but is the best way to overcome in a short amount of time).
• Don’t go to class sick! Tell your professors you are sick, they will listen.

Developing your Cultural Intelligence Workshop
What do you do when you encounter someone who is different than you? How do you feel? What goes on inside of you? As Christians we need be able to understand other cultures to communicate and work effectively within various cultural groups. We have so much in common! Living, dying, eating, sleeping, caring for our familes, looking for meaning and purpose. Yet, there is so much that is different!
Join us in the Emitte Center, Schimmel Hall

9:00 am- 3:00pm
Questions? Contact Janine Allen, Corban University Dean of Global Initiatives
