Hello! The Health Professions LLC started off strong this
fall. Last month we had our LLC Kickoff event which included a recourse
scavenger hunt followed by sand volleyball and smores! Everyone got into teams
which will be used all throughout the semester for our house cup challenge. The
teams went all around campus and took pictures of the locations they needed to
find and posted them on our Facebook page so we could keep track of the points.
We had a ton of people show up and participate. This event went on for 2 and a
half hours because everyone was having so much fun! It was a great way for all
of the LLC residents to get to know each other better and also the LLC
stakeholders and peer mentors showed up giving everyone an amazing opportunity
to meet all of the energetic and fun people involved in the LLC! Below are some pictures that were taken
throughout the event!

Like I mentioned before, the teams used in our scavenger
hunt are also the ones that we are using for our house cup challenge. Our house
cup challenge will go throughout the rest of the semester and students will
have the opportunity to earn points by doing well in school, going to events
and much more. At the end of semester, we will tally up the points and the team
with the most points will have dinner with the deans of the college of nursing
and college of health sciences!
This month we also had some fun in flicks! Our residents
wanted to go watch Baywatch in Flicks so we all dressed up in beach attire and
headed down to enjoy the movie. We also had a dress up competition and who ever
had the best beach outfit got a prize!
Beach Babes!
Next month we have the opportunity to tour the Blood Center
of Wisconsin and get to see all of the variety of health care careers in a
setting that not a lot of people are familiar with.
With all the fun and success we had this month, I can't wait
to see what the rest of the semester has in store!
