Scholarship Update
Last week I sent you information on scholarships, and a number of you have submitted applications. I've since learned that the website still shows last year's criteria, and some changes have not been added. I will let you know when the updated criteria are posted, as well as the reasons behind the changes. If you are considering applying but haven't yet, please wait for the new criteria. The deadline is June 6th, so you have some time.
Graduation
It's exciting to think that graduation is only a few weeks away. We have a large group of graduates this spring. We look forward to seeing many of you in Superior for the ceremony, and invite you to join us for our faculty/staff/student photo outside Wessman Arena just before the event. Once again we'll also have a virtual graduation through the Distance Learning website.
Support for New Students Course
One last reminder to this term's new students that the Support for New Students course is available as a place where you can get answers to questions from our peer mentor, Melissa Crow. Please take advantage of this support system when you aren't sure about anything involving the program. Next fall we plan to expand this course to make it available for all students.

A Snow Day in April
Today I'm writing again from my living room in Lake Nebagamon. Many of you are also at home due to the blizzard that's forging its way across the Midwest. It's certainly handy to have online access on days like this - I have some homework of my own to do. If you're in the same situation, I hope you find today a chance to get some quiet time to catch up on your classes.
Direct Access to Learn@UW-Superior
Due to a power outage in Superior, the UW-Superior webserver has been off line this morning. Since Learn@UW-Superior operates on a server in Madison, you still have access if you use the direct address: http://uwsuper.courses.wisconsin.edu/. If you ever have access problems, try that address first.
More Student Regent News
Not one, not two, not three, but four UW-Superior students have been applicants for the non-traditional student regent position. December Dickerson recently notified me that she also is a candidate for this role. Best of luck to all applicants. We should hear soon who has been selected.
