• On Wednesday, Aug. 24, attend the Roadrunner Spirit Rally Lunch, 11 a.m.-12:30 p.m. at Sombrilla Plaza, 1604 Campus and 12:30-2 p.m. at Bill Miller Plaza, Downtown Campus. Stop by for free food served by your university administrators.

• On Wednesday, Aug. 24, don't miss the President's Bar-B-Q, sponsored with Alumni Programs and University Housing. The event is 5-7:30 p.m. at the Convocation Center east lawn, 1604 Campus. Drop by on your way home for free BBQ, games, door prizes, favors and the Chris Boss Band.
