Resapalooza 2007
Do you want to get your name out to students on campus? On Sat. April 21st from 1-5 PM, the Resident Student Association is sponsoring Resapalooza (formally known as Mallstock) with a Las Vegas theme! This year’s event will be held in the first floor Perkins, the Scrounge, the Hen Zone, and the Beach.
Hundreds of students on campus flock to this FREE event, which includes FREE food, giveaways, door prizes, and entertainment. We invite you to set up a table, similar to Activities night, to represent your organization. Your table, which will be set up on the beach, can follow our Las Vegas theme or simply advertise your student group. This will cost NOTHING to you but will provide great exposure in helping to get your name out on campus!
If you are interested, please contact Steven Gold at sgold@udel.edu. Keep in mind this is not binding, but only those interested will receive further information. Please respond by Monday, April 2nd.

The Urban League was created in 1999 to enable people to color to secure economic self-reliance, parity, power and civil rights. A key part of that mission is to advocate on behalf of people of color. The MWUL is now developing an advocacy agenda to drive its research and advocacy work. As we develop that agenda, we want to hear from you. There are four main topic areas. Each with its own focus group session. Please join us for any or all of the sessions.
Please RSVP to Emily Knearl at 622-4310. If you are unable to attend or would like a copy of the advocacy agenda in advance, please contact Ms. Knearl. We look forward to hearing from you!
