Late Night Breakfast set tonight

A Late Night Breakfast will be served from 9 to 10:30 p.m. in the Dining Hall.

The annual event is designed to give students plenty of energy if they need to pull an all-nighter preparing for exams.

The menu will include a frost-your-own doughnut bar, eggs, French toast and sausage. Faculty and staff are encouraged to catch a meal and to help out if they can.


Wellness Center hours reduced this week

The Wellness Center will be open as follows this week:

·  Monday: Regular hours (7 a.m. to 8:30 p.m.)

·  Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday: 6 to 8:30 p.m.

·  Friday: Closed. The Wellness Center will be closed for winter break and will re-open in January.


Wellness Center's focus to change

The Wellness Center will no longer be available for general use by students and employees beginning next semester, President Joe Manjone said.

"The closing of this facility is due to the little use that it has been getting, and the need for the facility by the athletic strength-and-conditioning program," Manjone said.

In related news, college employees may have an added incentive to join the YMCA. Soon, Waldorf employees will be offered up to $170 in matching annual membership fees at the Forest City YMCA. YMCA and Waldorf human resources officials will have more information about the program. Students already receive a membership to the Forest City YMCA as part of their student fees.

In addition, open gyms will be offered from 8 to 11 p.m. each Friday during spring semester to give students and employees another recreation option.

Flu shots are still available

Students and employees who missed the flu shot clinics on campus can still get a flu shot at the Winnebago County Public Health office.

Walk-in shot clinic hours are 2 to 4 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.If you prefer, you can call (641) 585-4763 to set up an appointment.

Cost for the flu vaccine is $15.

Winnebago Public Health Office is at 216 South Fourth St. (one block south of the Kum & Go station).
