http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=twpRqEc7vgY

Judicial Board Applications are available in the Office of Student
Activities. Your new Chief Justice, Terese Cabanting, is looking for
Associate Justices and Student Advocates. It’s a great opportunity
to get involved, get some leadership experience and pad that resume.

Sign Ups for Dance Off and Powder Puff have started. For more
information about them check out www.facebook/RUConnected.regis .
There are significant changes to Powder Puff this year - including an
all-participant meeting, strict roster limitations, some friendly
local Denver Police Officers and the like. (The result of some
alcohol-related injuries from past years.)

Events and things to do around campus:
Wednesday
Hope you got the chance to check out the 1st Annual Regis People?s
Fair this afternoon. It took place in front of the Student Center
and was sponsored by RUSGA senators.

Survivors of Suicide Day, 7-9pm in the Science Amp.
It will be part of Step It Up and it will be a video about people
coping with losing a loved one to suicide. It would be a good
opportunity to learn to grieve/cope with the loss of a loved one to
suicide and get a chance to remember/honor him or her.

Since it’s Holy Week there is no Thrills, no Friday movie, or weekend
programming. I hope that you’ll have time to spend some time with
your family, friends, friends family, etc. this weekend.

Dear Ranger

Well the Manning Watch continues into its fourth day. As
entertaining as that is, there’s also a bunch of other things going
on right here on campus.

Announcements and such:

Are you ready to be the Mayor of Bracketville? The Oracle of
Bracketology? The DUKE of Hoopnation?? March Madness is indeed upon
us and you can win great prizes and bragging rights campus-wide. If
you are interested in filling out a March Madness bracket for a
chance at Regis Glory go to http://ru.mayhem.cbssports.com/e and
create a CBS sports account. It takes 2 minutes to get set up. The
password for the RU March Madness Extravaganza is: Rangers. Then fill
out your bracket and submit it (you are limited to one bracket, so
make it count!!). After that, sit back, relax and pray that your
National Champion isn’t knocked out in the first round. Prizes will
be awarded!!!!

Today is just like summer! Good thing to, as Summer School
Registration begins March 19th in the Office of Summer Session
(LOY-12). Students are required to have approval from their advisor
in order to register for Summer courses. Advisor approval can be
obtained via email; a copy of the email must be submitted with the
registration form. Additional information (including the Summer
Catalog and registration form) is available at www.regis.edu/summer.

Fall concert?
We’re looking for some feedback on an artist for a possible Fall
Concert. The guys name is Ben Rector and you can check out his music
at: http://www.myspace.com/benrector. The single “When A Heart
Breaks” is particularly noteworthy. Concerts are tough at Regis
because we don’t have a ton of money to invest in one - so we end up
looking for up and coming artists before they “get found”. Ben might
be one of those guys. Let me know what you think. (E-mail me with
your yea or ney.)

Events:

Tuesday, March 13th
2pm. Baseball vs. CSU-Pueblo, Baseball Diamond.

8pm “What You Do Online Can (and probably will) Come Back to Haunt
You”. C.L. Lindsay gives you the social media know how to keep your
online life online. Know your rights and know how to protect
yourself when you log on. Win a iPod docking station! Mountain View
Room.

Wednesday, March 14th

3:14pm. International Pi Day. Walkers Pub. Join the math department
and break some pie with them. Then join them (or watch the
freakishness) for a “Recite Pi from memory contest” followed by a
special Pi Day “Geeks Who Drink” contest and win fabulous prizes.

5:00pm to 6:00pm. Meet the Industry Night: American Family
Insurance.
Loyola 11. Sit and talk with representatives of a company that has
been around since 1927, sells multiple products in 19 states and has
$5.4 billion dollars in policy holder equity. (Okay - all I can do is
hear their jingle in my head for the rest of the afternoon.)

8pm. OAP Film Series brings you DEFY! By the Danny Harf project.
X-Treme Wakeboarding. Walkers Pub.

Thursday, March 15th
Thrills this week is Think Fast! It’s an incredibly fast paced game
show that tests your pop culture knowledge (music, movies and more).

audience members! Brought to you by PAC.

Friday, March 16th 4pm to 7pm.
Kermes Celebration on The Quad

a mariachi band as well as a DJ who will be playing a variety of
Hispanic music. Also we will be having food, raffles and games.

Sunday, March 18th 1pm. Match Pitch
Women’s Lacrosse is at home this weekend vs. Lindenwood. It is a
“Build your Bank” game, so show up, have your name called, win $100 -
just for being a Raucous Ranger!

Next Week:
Wednesday, March 21st at 7pm. Chapel.
Sonia Nazario, journalist and author of Enrique?s Journey!
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Sonia Nazario will give the Women?s
History Month keynote address on “Women, Children, and Immigration”.
Ms. Nazario’s book Enrique’s Journey explores how families are
separated by immigration today. To research her book, Ms Nazario
traced the true journey of the young Honduran immigrant Enrique, as
he made the dangerous and illegal passage from Honduras to the United
States. Enrique?s journey represents the trip thousands of immigrant
children make every year in search of their families who have left to
provide a better future.

And of course, the reason you scrolled all the way through this?
“Chuck Norris once climbed Mt. Everest in 15 minutes, 14 of which he
was building a snowman at the bottom.”

Take care of yourselves and each other this week.

29th-April 1st. Tickets are on sale in the Office of Student
Activities. Six bucks for students, eight bucks for everyone else.

discounted ticket right here.)

The Regis Deal at McDonalds. It has come to my attention that people
are unaware of the Regis Deal at our neighborhood McDonalds. It’s
easy - at the counter order a value meal and tell ‘em you’d like the
Regis deal. That will get you a free version of the sandwich you
ordered. Sooo on Friday night at 10pm you can get a double quarter
pounder with cheese meal - and get an extra double quarter pounder of
McGoodness for nothing. (If you’re the counting type that’s 1 pound
of hamburger, 1520 calories, 96 grams of fat, 330 mg Cholesterol, and
1900 mg of sodium - just for the two burgers.)

Experience Ireland This Summer!

Galway, Dingle, and the Aran Islands through the Ireland Travel
Learning Program (July 10-24, 2012). New for Summer 2012: Ireland

African American spirituals, most commonly known as simply “the
spirituals,” are the religious folk songs created and first sung by
African Americans in slavery. The songs such as “Swing Low, Sweet
Chariot” and “Wade in the Water” and many others, are some of the
best known survivors of the hundreds of remarkable songs that were
created by enslaved African Americans. The Sankofa Ensemble of the
Spirituals Project presents a 20 voice choir which performs many of
the songs with a talk about the history and origins of the
spirituals. Co-sponsored by the Regis Music Department. Learn more
and hear a sample medley from the choir at

them.) They are:

Survey #1: Noel Leviz. (This survey came from Stephanie Prochazka.)

working at this institution - from the most important perspective of
all - our students.

Freshmen and Seniors - tell us about your college experiences. Are
you engaged? (And nope, we’re not nosing around your personal lives

the 2012 National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) will provide
important information for improving student success at Regis. Now

information sent by NSSE, or have it sent to you by visiting

there will be a drawing for a Free iPad for anyone in Raucous Rangers
and who’s present for the game and at the drawing. That’s a pretty
sweet deal! Not in Raucous Rangers Yet??? You can join at the games
this weekend!

Sunday Night
Superbowl Party
Check out the New Walkers Pub, renovated by RUSGA and your student
activities dollars. We think you’ll think it’s money well spent.
Souled will be playing pre-game and doing a live half-time show.
(‘Cause not even I want to see Madonna perform in Indy.) The place
is opening at 3pm and the game is at 4:30pm. Free food until it runs
out. Brought to you by RUSGA and Weekend Programming.

Tuesday
Did you blow by the announcement for the Career Fair? Bummer. Well
here it is again.
Student Center, Main Café
10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Whether you?re looking for a job, an internship, or just trying to
figure out what you want to do with your life - head over to the
Career Fair next Tuesday. They’ve got over 50 employers who have
already signed up! (And in this economy that’s a lot!) You can check
out the fab employers at www.regis.edu/careerservices click on
EVENTS. Chuck Norris will be accepting applications for “Son of
Walker, Texas Ranger” to be aired next year on FitTV. (Okay, I just
made that up.)

And of course, the reason you opened up this e-mail in the first
place:

Chuck Norris doesn’t play “hide-and-seek.” He plays
“hide-and-pray-I-don’t-find-you.”

Have a great - and safe - evening and weekend!

Compassion by the Book Textbook Drive
Collection boxes are going out for the annual Compassion by the Book
drive. You’ll see them all week. Compassion by the Book accepts
your donated text books and turns them into donations for a good
cause. Donations made last spring resulted in a check made out to
the Red Cross of Japan for Tsunami relief in the amount of $1400.00
and another made out to the Ethiopia Community School project in the
amount of $2800.00. This semester’s charity is the Comfort Café -
located on Tennyson and 40th. http://www.thecomfortcafe.net/ The
charity was selected by RUSGA.

Spring Break Trips
I know, it’s not even quite Christmas Break and we’re talking about
Spring Break Trips. However, you gotta know that we’ve got some
great adventure and service trips going out over Spring Break.
(Destinations include Costa Rica, San Diego, Moab, New Orleans and
Laredo, Texas among others.) Take a moment this week and dream about
something other than Finals at: www.regis.edu/adventurebreaks

For non-Broncos fans:
“The reason the Holy Grail has never been recovered is because nobody
is brave enough to ask Chuck Norris to give up his favorite coffee
mug.”

For Broncos fans:
“Tim Tebow doesn’t read defenses. He stares them down until they form
a path to the end zone.” (A Bronco’s fan would also know that
generally this is after 11 three and outs, with four minutes left in
the fourth quarter, down by two scores.)

Finish the semester strongly. Graduating Seniors - you will be
missed.
