END OF THE YEAR PARTY AND EVENT CANCELED

SO I went into Ayres today and there was NOTHING in there for the white elephant sale AT ALL and I don't think that people are going to be bringing in BAGS of things on Monday. So I guess we are cancelling the sale since we don't have anything to sell! If anyone still wants to do a baked goods sale, let me know. We can make some money off of that.


BUT we are having an END OF THE YEAR PARTY at TRES HOMBRES on Thursday December 18th at 7:00. COME OUT AND CELEBRATE THE SEMESTER BEING OVER!!

Hopefully next semester we will have more events and we will have more participation!

WHITE ELEPHANT SALE

I HOPE EVERYONE HAD A GREAT BREAK. WE HAVE A FEW THINGS THAT WE ARE NEEDING VOLUNTEERS FOR:

[Not an advertisement - merely a fun diversion.] Tip-toe through the tulips: a garden of new content on plinthandchintz.com... The School of Life - Universal Design Living Laboratory Life teaches us far tougher lessons than any eccentric professor ever could, and nobody appreciates this more than Rosemarie Rossetti, Ph.D. Though she spent many a studious hour earning academic honors, a life-altering accident reinforced the idea that classrooms exist beyond campus walls. As a result, she's building an educational facility of her own, and it also just happens to be her home. Along with her husband, Mark Leder, Rosemarie is creating the Universal Design Living Laboratory [UDLL], a thoughtfully planned residence - incorporating barrier-free and healthy home principles with energy efficiency and sustainable practices - that will be open for touring not only to the A&D community, but to the general public as well. And to think that this revolutionary demonstration tool sure to impact numerous people's lives would have never happened had Rosemarie and Mark not chosen to go biking along a trail that day... Go here to read how one house can bring it all home. contributed by Shannon Schilling, ASID [owner, Design Details / proud NCIDQ certificate holder / thirtysomething] Confessions Of An NCIDQ Exam Taker Yes, I've done it. I've taken The Test (a.k.a. the NCIDQ Exam). Every part of the test was difficult, including the decision to take it. I struggled with the idea that perhaps I didn't need the professional appellation to verify my design skills. I also struggled with all of the "What-ifs": What if I failed? What if I failed several times? What if everyone found out that I failed? What if... well, you get the picture. The bottom line came down to this: I knew that not trying would nag at me indefinitely, and that What-if ultimately trumped all of the others... Go here if you've ever wondered about The Test. contributed by Jennifer Thompson [exhausted senior at Virginia Commonwealth University / portfolio pro] Portfolio Problems? Relax. It's OK. So what's all the hype about portfolios, anyway? Do you - as an emerging interior designer - really need to have one? Absolutely, you need to have one! Your portfolio is the gateway to your dream job, and - in many cases - the deciding factor on whether or not a firm will even look at you twice. Assembling a portfolio can be an especially challenging and overwhelming task for budding designers, but I'm here to help. Having the experience of constructing my own has taught me many dos, don'ts, and everything in between. So read on and remember to have fun during this exacting, yet creative, process... Go here to get your act together. contributed by The NCIDQ Crew Navigating The Examination Process - What Can Go Wrong Anyone who's taken an exam knows it often involves large quantities of coffee and late night study sessions. Preparing for a big test requires a great deal of effort, but the journey can be smooth sailing with the right navigation. Today there are more than 23,000 NCIDQ Certificate holders who have taken and passed the NCIDQ Examination. Over the years NCIDQ has witnessed and resolved all sorts of candidate issues, and we're sharing with you some examples of actual problems that have caused potential exam candidates to miss an exam administration. Since we don't want you to find yourself in the same boat, we're providing suggested solutions as well, ensuring that you sail away with your Certificate. So what can possibly go wrong?

Imagery lights up sections of our brains, stimulating within us rapid ideas, sticky memories, colorful responses, and (hopefully) perfect solutions. I know that anytime I try to explain something without accompanying it with a sketch or miming it with my hands, it's a communication challenge. The illustration inclinations I inherited from my father (a skilled woodworker), who thinks best with ink and paper. The demonstrative dependencies I inherited from my mother (a talented photographer), who appears to be conjuring some sort of spell during most conversations. So for all of us image needy, I 'm sharing a website that's sure to satisfy our graphiholic tendencies... Go here to get visual. When you enter Amazon or Barnes & Noble through our humble little website, a portion of your purchase - no matter what you buy - helps to keep PLiNTH & CHiNTZ up-n-running. The best part: It doesn't cost you anything extra and it helps us not have to charge you for your access to PLiNTH & CHiNTZ. THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your support! 2008 PLiNTH & CHiNTZ.

Fwd: Alliance for the CSU Day of Action

To:      Campus Community

From:  Paul J. Zingg, President


As a follow-up to the April 8th campus budget rally, the Alliance for the CSU is planning a Day of Action on Thursday, May 8, 2008, from 10:00 a.m. - 3:00 p.m..  There will be a communication station set up on the Kendall lawn, with phones and fax sheets to send the Governor a message that we will support the CSU by lobbying against the proposed budget cuts to the CSU.  Thus far, over 10,000 members of the CSU community have contacted the Governor's office.  Last week over 1400 people from Sacramento State contacted the governor.
 
This Thursday will be Chico State's opportunity to show the governor our support for the CSU.  Be sure to stop by to fill out the fax sheet or make a phone call; it will only take a couple of minutes of your time.  Spread the word and let everyone in the CSU community know.
