The Daily Bruin

The nursing serve trip team going to Kenya in June of 2018 is hosting fundraisers during six home basketball games! During the women’s and men’s games we will be selling Krispy Kreme donuts and raffle tickets, announcing at least one winner for the raffle during each game! The winners do not have to be present to win; we just need their contact info.

The prizes are as follows:

• Three pairs of premium movie tickets to Cinetopia
• One $25 gift card to Regal Cinemas
• Two $25 gift cards to American Eagle
• One $50 gift card to Dutch Bros
• Two Dutch Bros gift baskets (valued at $25 each)

That’s nine chances to win! Tickets will be sold at $5 for 10 tickets. That’s only 50 cents per ticket! The tickets will be kept in the prize pool until the very last prize is given away.

Were you homeschooled in high school? Do you know a student who was? If this post sounds familiar, it is! We are your friendly neighborhood homeschoolers who have completed our focus groups and now need your help with our survey.

My partner and I are submitting a research paper to present at the Northwest Communication Association Conference in April. If you or anyone you know was homeschooled (at least a year) during high school, please help us out.

If you pass this along to other former homeschoolers attending college, you will broaden the scope of our survey results, making them more accurate and applicable to our purpose. Please let us utilize your network. We know there are a lot of fantastic homeschoolers out there who will help us succeed!

Homeschool Survey

This survey should take around 20 minutes, and all responses will be anonymous. The survey will be available for roughly one week, so please participate and share as soon as possible.

Thank you for making our project a success, and may your semester be productive and enjoyable!
