I have an op-ed due on Thursday for my Social Action class, for which I will be writing about an offensive t-shirt on campus that states "Freshmen girls-Get'em while they're skinny." I'm also working with a body image group on campus to develop facilitations for freshmen fraternities and sororities to counter this message that will hopefully kick off next semester. Any ideas on what a counter-t-shirt would look like?
Last night was Creekside's Annual Membership Meeting and we had a great turnout. We held Board elections, approved the revised by-laws and showed a Power Point summing up the year's activities, made by yours truly. I have only a few more weeks in the semester-and I still have to write a grant! I'm also inspired to start a Creekside blog after today's session on social media so stay tuned for that.
I hope everyone is keeping warm as the winter weather settles in. I'm counting down the days until I'm home for Thanksgiving with my family and in Madison to see Tricia! Also, my trip to Spain is fast approaching-Kaela, nos vemos pronto! :)
Be well.

Hi Caitlyn,
Well it's about time you updated your blog!! What do you think, you actually have to do homework or something? OK, my first thought on a rebuttal shirt would be "Wait for a Guy to get a job and actually be useful..." although I don't know if that's much better than their t-shirt. Good luck Caitlyn!! Love, Aunt Val
Oh Aunt Val, How do you really feel? Caitlyn, sounds like you are as busy as ever and I cant wait to see what you come up with for a t-shirt! Dare I say it??
You go Girl!!!
See you in a few days! Love, Mom
