Volunteer for Slope Day [Urgent!]
Friday 5/4
Libe Slope
Slope Day is near!! For those of you unfamiliar with Slope Day, it’s the end of the year, school-wide celebration held annually on the last day of classes. Hundreds of volunteers are needed to hand out water bottles, clean-up trash, and watch out for other students who need medical help. Many students, faculty, and staff from all fellowships have volunteered together in years past and we want to encourage you all to again take this opportunity to actively love the Cornell community.
According to the Cornell Daily Sun, 250 volunteers must sign up by this Friday, 4/27…or no Slope Day. This is an awesome opportunity for the Christian community to serve our campus and fellow students, and fill in where help is needed!
Shifts are in 2-hour slots and you can sign up for one or all of them here. Volunteers will get a free t-shirt and be entered in a drawing to win some great prizes (including an iPad 3), and also may receive free meal tickets.
Visit the Slope Day Volunteer site to register. For more information, contact slopehelp@cornell.edu.

Friday Conversations: Faith and Planning in Business and Ministry
Friday 4/27 5:00pm
RPCC Wendy Purcell Lounge (2nd Floor)
Christians are called to be faithful. But are we also called to be fruitful? Although some believe that faithfulness is all that matters, others disagree. This Friday, come and discuss the very practical matter of the role of planning in business and ministry. We are very privileged to have as our guest author, consultant, and start-up entrepreneur Rich McDaniel.
McDaniel attended Wheaton College, and received an MPA ’74, and MBA ’78 from Cornell. McDaniel has devoted his career to studying and leading positive change at Cornell, in companies that he has co-founded, and other organizations where he has served as a leader. He has 30 years of experience in strategic planning and formerly served as Cornell University Vice President of Business Services & Environmental Safety. He previously served as Director of The Cornell Store and Director of Cornell Business Services. He has also guest lectured on multiple occasions in the Johnson Graduate School of Management, mostly focused on e-business developments. He has worked closely with management authors such as Dr. Ken Blanchard and Dr. Rod Napier.
This is the last Friday Conversation of the 2011-2012 school year! Check out the Facebook event or the website.
For more information, contact James Pothen at jjp43@cornell.edu.
