[Eoscstudents] Menu for Thurs. Sept. 11 Patriot's Day

[Rhoda Watkins]

Hi folks,

Today's date puts me in a  rather somber frame of mind, just remembering 
the devastating tragedy of Sept. 11, 2001, a day that carved "9-11" into 
our memories forever.   Our student services office will be sponsoring 
military recruitment tables on campus as well as other commemorative 
events.  Also PTK/Honors students have been holding Voter's Registration 
Days on campus in an effort to get more students registered and 
interested in the political system in this country, and encourage them 
to take part in it.   The upcoming Presidential Election in November 
will be a historical event and the winners and the political party 
backing them will have a major hand in shaping  events in this country 
for at least the next four years.  I was looking at an email I received 
pertaining to women's suffrage, and the horrors and injustices that our 
grandmothers and greatgrandmothers faced in trying to win the right to 
vote in this country.   It really makes you realize how much we take for 
granted our "right to vote" when you think about what those brave women 
of the past had to go through to get us to this point.  To find out more 
about this, be sure and attend the HBO movie "Iron Jawed Angels" 
sponsored by the Honors students and aired in the Pratt Little Theater 
Tuesday evening Sept. 16.

Our menu for today includes:
             Spaghetti with meat sauce
             Garlic bread            
             Steamed red potatoes
             Corn
             Green beans
             Seasoned rice
             Broccoli with cheese sauce
             Baked potatoes
             Cheeseburgers

And for dessert have some delicious Fruit Cocktail Cake or some Peaches 
and Cream Cake.

Have a great day and don't forget to register to vote it you haven't 
already.   Make your voice count!

Rhoda    :-)
