October News!

Greetings!

I am happy to report that Threshold and the rest of Lesley University have all braved Hurricane Sandy safely and in good spirits. We were very lucky that we did not loose power and students spent most of their day off watching TV and hanging out in our dormitory lounges. Our thoughts and best wishes are with those who were more greatly effected by this powerful and damaging storm!

On a lighter and happier note, we are proud to announce that on Sunday October 28, 2012 Threshold Students Hana Adams and Philip Murray ran the Superhero 5K Road race. All runners dressed like a superhero and joined thousands of runners in Cambridge, MA. Race officials stated, "Come dressed as a superhero, leave feeling like one!" Hanna and Phillip, dressed as Wonder Woman and Superman got into the spirit thanks to classmates Caroline Greenfield, Michael Sheehan, and Sarah Hay-Smith who cheered them on.

As October comes to an end, Threshold is now thinking about our upcoming vacation, November 20th-November 25th. Students are expected to be checked out of the dormitories by 2:00 pm on the 22nd and should plan on arriving after 12:00 pm on Sunday, November 25, 2012. Students will not have access into the dormitories until after noon on the 25, so please plan accordingly. If Residence Life can assist in any travel plans or arrangements, please contact Matt and we will help in in any way possible. 

Until our break arrives, residential programming will continue in full force! On Friday, November 4, 2012 Threshold and Lesley's Campus Activity Board will co-host Redline. Redline is an award winning a cappella group. We will also be having a Halloween Party, continue with Girls Group and Running Club, and of course, the very exciting Threshold 30th Anniversary Gala. Several students have already purchased very nice suits and dresses for the occasion. As the time comes closer I will give students directions and ways to get to the Copley Marriott Hotel - the venue for the gala. 

As usual, if you have any ideas for our programming here at Threshold, don't hesitate to contact me! I welcome ideas and fresh perspectives!
