Hey Bobcat Foodies! February's Cooking Club is a double-sided love letter - we will be featuring an ode to breakfast greatness, as well as a tribute to all things chocolate.

Attention all students who drive to school. This is just a reminder that students must park across the street at the upper or lower Duprey lots unless they have purchased a student parking pass. These passes allow students to park in the student lot only. Students parking in the faculty lots or in the student lot without a pass could be assigned administrative consequences and jeopardize their ability to purchase a pass in the future.
