Food
There is now a frozen yogurt soft serve machine at Geisert Cafeteria. You can get a cone or a cup and put your choice of toppings on either vanilla, chocolate, or twist soft serve. It is very yummy, so go to Geisert to try it out!
Also, Center Court is now open on the weekends. For more details check out the Food Services Website.

Housing Survey Follow Up
From Nathan Thomas, Executive Director of Residential Living and Leadership
"Thank you to everyone who participated in the Housing Survey conducted by Brailsford & Dunlavey. There were over 2100 responses and it is one of the highest percentage response rates they have ever seen. THANK YOU!
There were a number of incredible prizes awarded to participants. The top prize winners were: Stephen Bannon and Trace Trebiloc - iPad 2; Kaitlin Adams-Wenger and Jason Lyons - Sony Bravia 40" flat screen TV; and David Smejkal - dinner with a friend and President Glasser. 35 Visa giftcards were awarded and a complete list of winners can be found at www.bradley.edu/housing.
Over the coming weeks and months we will closely be reviewing all of this information in preparing for the future of housing at Bradley University. Again, thank you for your participation."

A big part of Student Senate are the committees. Anyone on campus may attend and join a committee without being a Senator. The following are committees you may be part of: Academic Affairs, Campus Affairs, City and Local Affairs, Diversity Affairs, Student Relations, Technology Services and Affairs, and Campus Safety. If you want to know more about any of these committees, go to our Executive Board page.
