One week

So here it is, it is one week till our summer break officially comes to an end. You are about to find out how your semester is going to turn out. It's time to pack everything you own (or can fit into your car) and cram it into your new room. This semester is going to bring many changes. There are new rules, new staff members, new renovations, and most importantly new students. LBC will soon be welcoming it's new freshman class within the next few days! I say, let's try to make them feel at home just like the previous students have done for us. College is a new exciting experience and is going to be a big change for a few hundred people. For some, this might be the first time they will be away from their parents for an extended period of time. For others this will be a welcome change, and well for the rest of us, it will be another semester of learning under our belts. Either way, I pray that we will all take something from this semester, good or bad, because in both situations God will teach us something very important. Trust in Him and let Him guide your steps this semester.

Now on to business. The following is the schedule of times when you need to show up for registration:

9:30-10:00am - Seniors
10:00-10:30am - Juniors
10:30-11:00am - Sophomores
11:00-11:30am - New Students (freshman/re-admit/transfer)

If you arrive after 12:00pm There will be a late registration fee of $50 (if you do not contact the Registrar's Office in advance 717-569-7071). So, Please get here on time! You don't want to be paying fee's this early, you are going to need that money when you over skip chapel!

There is more information contained in the letter from the school that you should find in your mail box. You can always talk to student services if you have more questions. After all, that's why they are there!

Enjoy your last week! 
    

Rumor Control

Every year things change around LBC. Yesterday's post is proof of that. Miller hall is changing, that's a fact. There are also rumors circulating that there are some rule changes in the works for the upcoming semester. Here at the ULBC blog we try to only report on things we know to be fact. And while it hasn't been confirmed as of this post there has been a lot of talk (on facebook) about a certain dress code being changed.An unnamed source at LBC confirmed this, "I saw something on facebook about it, but I haven't heard anything (official)." So, until I do some more digging we will label this whole "Watergate" "Jeangate" as a rumor.

Under construction!

It's already started! If you don't read your emails from the school then might have missed some cool information. Miller Hall is undergoing a bit of an upgrade and will soon have a new look and new features for students. Below are a couple pics from the construction.

If you become a fan of the facebook group, you can get updates when you have a package in the mail room...or as it will now be called The Stop.

My Year Ago

It’s fun to look back and see where life has taken us. Over the years I stop and gather myself, and focus on what I have been doing in and with my life. As I sit here though, I can’t help but wish that I was back where I was a year ago. It’s hard to be content at times and during these summer breaks where, I find myself with more free time (because of the lack of classes) and it gives me time to reminisce.

Contentment is defined as: a circumstance, or a feature or characteristic of something, which gives rise to satisfaction. I rather like the way Greek Philosopher Epicurus put it “Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.”

This was my year ago:

My year ago was waiting for parents to pick up their children after school. My year ago was spent in Japan working, playing, and growing. That was what I once had. I have had many of those situations in the past year. It’s hard, sitting here knowing that if things were different certain circumstances would be different. But, we have to find contentment in our current situation. We have to accept that God has us in the place we are right now for a reason, and honestly it's for the better. Yeah, I would love to be done with my undergraduate classes and working on my Masters of Education in Japan, teaching, and living where I want. But right now, I’m here, at LBC living in Lancaster.

So what is your “year ago”?

It's that time!

It's that time of year! Check those mail boxes, because your long awaited bill for fall 2009 should be arriving shortly! Here at the Unofficial pray that you will be able to meet all the financial deadlines and that you will be able to return this fall blessed! It's hard out there, I know, but remember God is faithful and if you are to return He will provide a way!
