FOR THE RECORD: Winter break is here and flying... so enjoy!

I don't know about you, but these past few weeks, breathing was the last thing on my mind. Finally the intense semester is beyond us and there is only one thing left to do--enjoy your time off! I can guarantee these upcoming weeks will fly by!

Winter break is the time for the college student to drop all the work and enjoy time with family and friends. During this break, take the time to value the holidays and time away from school. Look around for fun and unique activities like ice skating or skiing to capture the winter spirit.

Have a safe and happy holiday!

Greater Philadelphia Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service 
Make It a Day On, Not a Day Off                 
January 19th, 2009
Volunteer on January 19, 2009 during the MLK Day of Service, when tens of thousands of volunteers serve throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware in the largest King Day event in the nation. 

Whether you're a civic organization or a group of friends, if you have an idea for a service project, you can participate in this year's event.  Many of your schools will be hosting events, but if your organization wants to be involved and doesn't have a project in mind, you can register for volunteer opportunities through the United Way's website.  Also, when you register your own project, you'll get free t-shirts and the ability to recruit extra volunteers.  We encourage you to use United Way's resources at mlkdayofservice.org to make this January 19th a day to make a difference in your community. For Campus Philly's Day-of-Service guide, visit

Apply for Campus Philly's 2nd Annual Alternative Spring Break
Be a part of Campus Philly’s second annual Alternative Spring Break!

Visits to historic sites, vibrant and unique neighborhoods, and galleries and museums will be a few of the activities during this week of learning, serving, and loving Philadelphia.
