HAPPY WEEK 7 HIGHLANDERS

 

GCAP’s thrift store event is happening on February 17th from 12-3 PM! If you would like to participate in the clothes swap, make sure to drop off your clothes at the ASUCR Office. Last day to drop off clothes is 2/17 @10AM. We will also have someone doing small mends and someone showing you how to style different articles of clothing in multiple ways, so don’t forget to stop by!

 

Lastly, do you struggle to find parking or a carpool buddy when driving to campus?Pickup N' Park is a mobile app aimed to help students find parking and carpool rides within campus in an effort to improve sustainability, campus connectedness, and student's time and energy getting to school! Students leaving campus can make a request to be picked up and taken to their car in exchange for their parking spot to students coming to campus. Students coming to campus can offer a carpool ride to pick up students on their way, or to other locations around their schools by facilitating short distance ridesharing.
