Steam Tunnel Tours Next Week

Hey Advos!

Remember next week is the class you all have been waiting for...MSU's underground steam tunnel system tour! We will meet outside of the heating plant (across from EPS) at 4:10 on Wednesday.



We will also be voting on AdvoCat of the Year. Start thinking about which AdvoCats have stood out as a leader in our group and who has volunteered the most this year! The AdvoCat of the Year does have to be a student who returns to AdvoCats next year and they are eligible for a recruiting trip with an Admissions Representative in the fall!




Also, mark your calendars for the AdvoCat end of the Year Party on Wednesday April 29th after the final. Details for the party are still being arranged, but keep the evening open for a night of fun with fellow Advos and a slideshow of pictures from the year including the retreat. (trust me, you will want to see those!) Have a great weekend!

2009-2010 AdvoCat Applications Deadline Approaching

Hi Advos,
If you know of any fellow MSU students who would be good ambassadors for Montana State University encourage them to apply. Applications for next year are due Friday, April 17th at 5pm to the Office of Admissions (SUB 201). We are looking forward to a great pool of applicants!

Museum of the Rockies Tour

Today we had an awesome class! We went on a tour with Jack Horner of the Museum of the Rockies. Jack Horner's newest book, How to Build a Dinosaur: Extinction Doesn't Have to Be Forever was just released. He was showing us around the Museum and giving us a little insider information. Now you can tell visiting families that MSU's Mueseum of the Rockies is home to the largest T-Rex skull.

Almost Here!!!

It's getting to be that time of year again. Spring is in the air at Montana State University and that means one thing....AdvoCat Recruitment for 2009-2010 academic year! At the begining of April the Office of Admissions will launch our campus wide recruitment effort looking for the best and brightest student ambassadors...the ADVOCATS. Here is a preview of my favorite poster.

If you are interested you can download an application and apply by April 17th at 5pm.

AdvoCat Class 3/11

AdvoCat class last week was busy as usual! We had presentations from the University Honors Program and Residence Life. Both programs are really important to highlight while on tours with prospective students. In the spring we recevie tons of questions about living on campus. Remember that the students and familes visiting campus always want to know more about your experiences living in the halls!

Also, we spent some time at the end of class taking photos for our next publication, the AdvoCat Newsletter. This newsletter will be sent around campus promoting our program to Deans, Directors and Department Heads.

Derrick and Sadie also recruited current AdvoCats to return to the program next year. So far 13 students have signed up for returner interviews. That is awesome! If any current AdvoCats are interested in returning who have not signed up, contact Ren for scheduling an interview March 25th or 26th.

Finally, there were a few reminders for our next class. We will be meeting outside of Admissions in the SUB. You can leave your bags in Ren's office before we walk over to the Museum of the Rockies with Jack Horner for our tour. Should be really exciting!

Enjoy your spring break!
