The community within the Transfer LLC (South
Tower Floors 19&20) continues to grow as we get to know each other more and
attend events. So far this year, the Transfer LLC has done Game Night, attended
the Involvement Fair, and participated in Taste of Oakland. Each of these
events have been smaller group sizes and it has enhanced the conversations we
are able to have with one another.
For Game Night roughly twelve residents and
the Resident Assistant (RA) played games in our lounge after we have our first
floor meeting the week of move in. For the residents that participated in this
event, they are constantly the ones who sit in the lounge together, work on
homework, and talk outside of their academic lives.
The Involvement Fair was
hosted by Student Association at UWM and had a large variety of clubs and
organizations tabling to show new students as well as continuing students what
our school has to offer to participate in.
Lastly, Taste of Oakland, the
residents favorite event so far! For this event, we went to local restaurants
that accepted UWM Meal Plan and ate dinner and chatted with one another. This
was a two day event- the first night we went to Noodles & Company and the
second night we took the shuttle (transportation between all residence halls)
to Ian’s pizza. Each night brought in a different crowd of residents and we
learned about the many restaurants that accept meal plan and their general
locations.
The RA created an Instagram account for the floors (@ra_uwm_alyssa)
where she uses the social media platform as the number one method for sharing
events, check it out! Coming up this month we have events geared more towards
Exploring Milwaukee and Campus Organizations!
