WELCOME BACK PLP!!!

WE ASK AND TRUST THAT YOU WOULD READ THIS ENTIRE POST. THANK YOU. HONOR CODE. : ) (Yes, its the same as the email you received.)

We hope you all enjoyed the holidays and had a wonderful break! Please forgive our delay in getting out this welcome back email, but as you know, our staff has been undergoing some MAJOR changes, and we ask that you would duly note the following:

*Pictures of Kaeona Kang on facebook! Baby Kang was born on her due date, January 4^th, weighing in at 6.14 and 20 inches. WAHOO! Welcome Kaeona!

*Jacqui King has officially moved on to her new job—CONGRATULATIONS JACQUI…but we will miss you!

We sincerely celebrate the aforementioned items and we also acknowledge the impact they have on our staff. We have made necessary adjustments in order to function efficiently, but are obviously functioning shorthanded. As such, PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT YOU NEED TO DO. This means:

*REQUIREMENTS!!!!

- Service Hours! 12.5 of them. And at least FOUR in the local or OFF CAMPUS community.

- Speakers! Attend them all!

WRITE THEM DOWN!

February 25^th: John Stegeman, President & CEO, Ferguson Enterprises

March 19th: Dr. Mark Arnold, Founder & President, Charter Resource Group

April ? – There WILL be one. Stay tuned. We WILL let you know.

ALL speakers will begin at 7pm in the Concert Hall (that means be there BEFORE 7:00 in BUSINESS ATTIRE)

*If you have an EXCUSED absence – make it up by watching in the office or submitting notes from a makeup speaker.

*If you miss a speaker and are UNEXCUSED, you must attend a make-up and submit a ONE PAGE PAPER. Note the difference. Be excused or be at the speakers!

- Workshops! Sophomores, juniors, seniors…SIGN UP NOW! AND ATTEND THEM!

SEE ATTACHED FORM IN THE EMAIL TO SIGN UP!

*If you miss a workshop you must make it up by attending a make up and submitting a paper. Moral of the story – don’t miss your workshops : )

- Get involved! REMEMBER, involvement is a requirement! You must be involved in a recognized CNU campus club or organization. Don’t ask why it’s required, consider this reminder as sufficient evidence that it should be. Get involved—it’s required, AND FUN.

*In fact, we are SO passionate about involvement, that PLP has opportunities of its own!!! Be on the lookout for some of these ways to get involved IN and THROUGH PLP: PLP Council, iNSPIRE TEAM, Social Planning Team (SPiT), CSI (Community Service Initiative), Hosting overnights, (ULR) Undergraduate Leadership Review, AND MORE!!!

- GRADES! Yes, these are a requirement too. Keep them up. It’s worth it. And…it’s good for you.

- EVENTS!!!! Don’t forget about the FUN STUFF! Please note the following…and COME!

*PLP OPEN HOUSE, THIS THURSDAY JANUARY 22^nd, 11-2pm in the WASHINGTON ROOM. Pick up NECESSARY important information, SIGN UP for workshops and opportunities, APPLY for fun PLP positions, and ENJOY SOME REFRESHMENTS. Hey, and while your there…say hello to the staff : )

*THE VARIETY SHOW – Friday, February 6^th in the M&T Hall

*GAME NIGHT – Friday, March 20^th in the DSU

*And be on the lookout for the first…ever…

PLP CLASS WARS…coming spring 2009. Get ready.

ALSO PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: Due to the changes in PLP staffing, we request that all meetings with staff members be made BY APPOINTMENT. Each staff member will have an appointment sign up sheet on their door. Please sign up for a meeting time and we will look forward to seeing you then. We still love you and want to see you! But please, please respect this new policy. Thank you!

REMEMBER: PLP OPEN HOUSE, THIS THURSDAY (JAN 22), 11 – 2 IN THE WASHINGTON ROOM. WE’LL SEE YOU THERE! We better : )

Ever sincerely,

The PLP Staff
