On The Block

Support a Great Cause at On The Block! April 11th 4-8 on the Mackenzie Quad

We’re excited to share that proceeds from this year’s On The Block event will be donated to ACCORD: A Center for Dispute Resolution & Community Justice, a Community Action Agency located in Belmont. ACCORD plays a vital role in supporting individuals and families in our local community through programs that promote stability, self-sufficiency, and overall well-being.

We’re asking all students, faculty, and staff to help us give back by bringing:

  • Spare change
  • Unopened self-care items
  • Canned goods

These donations will be used as “votes” for your favorite activities at the event, so the more you bring, the more you can support both your top picks and the community!

Don’t miss the dunk tank just $5 per turn and all proceeds from it will also go directly toward supporting ACCORD.

By attending On The Block, you’re not just showing up for a fun event you’re making a real impact right here in our community. Let’s come together to have fun, give back, and support a cause that truly matters.

Show up. Donate. Vote. Make a difference.

'How to Overcome a Bad Day' Workshop - SSC

The Student Success Center will be hosting the How to Overcome a Bad Day Workshop on Tuesday, April 7th at 5pm in the Student Development Center, Room 109. Everyone has had one - a day that just does not go as planned. Sometimes we wake up and just feel off, or sometimes it feels everyone we try to do goes wrong. This workshop will discuss options on how to overcome these days. Learn how to learn how to control your day, rather than be a victim of a bad day.

Find this workshop, future events and a collection of online workshops on a wide variety of topics available on our Student Success Center SharePoint.
