Well this month turned out to be much busier than expected. Lots of good news to report luckily!
I'll start off with the announcement that I adopted a kitten! Her name is Autumn and she's the cutest thing ever. You know I wasn't busy enough with classes and work that I thought I would add a pet into the equation. She's way too active at night right now, but she's also a big goofball so it balances out. (PS thats not my cat at the bottom.)
School was pretty crazy for a few weeks there. I had a final grant proposal due, an 8 page profile, and a midterm all within a week of each other. Luckily I came out alive and with decent grades. Now the end of the semester is creeping up with more final papers and all their stress.
The MPA program had quite a few developments during October. On the 22nd we had our annual fall reception. There was a good turnout for guest speaker Bonnie Meyer who spoke about LGBTQ issues at NKU and within the state of Kentucky. She gave a great talk and I really think everyone there enjoyed it. We also just found out this week that MPA students are able to go on a study abroad to Bregenz, Austria in Summer 2016!!!! I am extremely excited about this oppurtunity (and so should every other student), and I really hope to be able to go! For information contact Jeff Zimmerman at zimmermanj3@nku.edu or look at the program's website http://www.kiis.org/go/BregenzPO.php.
At the Aronoff I was able to usher for the musical "Pippin." It was quite a show and hard to describe. It was a mix of musical theater and cirque du soleil type stunts, a very unique combo. Up next is "White Christmas" based off the Bing Crosby movie, so I hope to see some of you there!
I'll be back at the end of next month to let you know all about the happenings in November. As always thanks for reading!
Oh and Happy Halloween!
