At the end of the spring semester a university-wide bicycle “clean-up” will be done. Here are the details:

• Bicycles that are illegally parked, unregistered or inoperable will be impounded.
• Bicycle racks need to be cleared to do routine maintenance to the bicycle racks and surrounding areas.
• The basement of Gulley Hall will no longer be a place to store bikes. The space will be used for other needs after April 30.
• Bikes will be tagged the Monday after graduation week (April 30) and rounded up the following Friday (May 4).
• In order to accommodate the maintenance of the bike rack areas, bicycles may not be stored on campus during the summer. If you are not going to be on campus using your bicycle during the summer, please remove it.
• Juniors Abroad students and students using their bikes during the summer must remove their bikes from campus racks and move them to their place of summer residence or a temporary place of storage before the round-up on May 4.
• Bicycles NOT picked up from the impound lot by May 31 will be forwarded to the local charities at the discretion of campus public safety department. Junk bicycles will be recycled.

Summer is here and we’re sure you have exciting places to go and things to do! We also know that many of you have jobs or internships (or both) planned for this summer, and we really want to know what those are. This information is helpful to us for many reasons, especially because we love to brag about the amazing things our students do outside of the classroom. We’re even putting together a campaign that will highlight several students and their summer internship experiences, and we’d love to include you!

On top of that, we’ll be giving away a $25 Amazon gift card to one lucky respondent! Click on this link to complete our two-minute survey. Questions? Contact Grace Packer.

Do you have back or neck pain? Would you like to have it looked at for free while also helping out our physical therapy students? Our second-year students are looking for volunteers for tomorrow (Tuesday) from 1 to 2 p.m. or from 2 to 3 p.m. in the physical therapy department of the Roberts Center.

At the end of every school year many students have good reusable items that they do not want to take home over the summer, including blankets, clothing, kitchen supplies, small appliances, radios, room decorations, furniture, etc.

In an effort to keep the dumpsters from overflowing and to be better stewards of the resources, Phase II was initiated. We are happy to receive reusable items that students do not want to take home starting on April 21 and going through April 30 at 4 p.m.

The items gathered are sorted and made available to summer students and staff, with the remainder of the items being given to different organizations in the local area, such as Rescue Mission, Unwed Mothers Homes, Love INC and Goodwill.

Barrels will be placed in or near central living areas …

• On the porches or patios of Weesner, Riley, Chapman, Hoskins, Armstrong, Campbell, Fulton St., Villa Road, Barclay, Hodgin and Wilder houses
• In the dorm lobbies of Edwards, Pennington, Gulley, Le Shana, Brandt, Hobson, Macy and Sutton
• Outside of the first floor of Beebe, Carey and Willcuts
• Near Woolman 2-3, Winters 205-2 and Newlin apartments
• In Lewis and Weesner Village laundry rooms

Please look for and use these barrels as you prepare to leave at the end of school.

• Please do not place trash in the barrels labeled “Phase II.”
• Please do not donate undergarments, socks, damaged or soiled items
• Do not donate large appliances or furniture such as couches, arm chairs and beds
• Do not place food or chemicals in the barrels. Place these items in a box or bag next to the barrels.

There are large drop boxes for your trash located strategically on campus. By law, computers, monitors and TVs cannot go into the trash. They can be place beside the barrels. Please note if it is broken.

Have a great summer and may the Lord bless you as you go!
