Finals Stress-Relief Event!

Final season at NOVA is a stressful time, so this semester we hosted a Finals Stress-Relief event where students could grab snacks between exams, as well as make friendship bracelets (+ creatures) and create holiday cards for this winter’s festivities! ❄

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, and to everyone who still has upcoming finals, Student Life is wishing you the best of luck!

Friendsgiving with Student Life

FRIENDSGIVING  EVENT

This Thursday, we had our Friendsgiving! We know that some of our students are very away from home, so we want to bring a bit of that sense of community onto campus before they go on break the following week!

Our student ambassadors, their friends and many staff enjoyed a multitude of Thanksgiving staples! From mashed potatoes, green beans and apple pie. Even the staple of all Thanksgiving; Turkey!

 

 

Additionally, a large part of this was a potluck contest for attending clubs! The following clubs: HSU, SPS, Pride Club, Philosophy Club and our own Student Government all participated in the potluck contest! The winner of the contest was Pride Club with their amazing Garlic Bread, Cookies and Chocolate Croissants

Our ambassadors all give it two thumbs up!  Thank you again for all those who attended!
