For the record: Is it spring break yet?
Ughfff! Does it ever feel like the work just continues to pile higher and higher with no end or even a relief? If your answer is yes, guess what? You are not alone! Thousands of college students throughout the Philadelphia area feel exactly the same way as you. Stressed out beyond belief!
On the positive end, unlike the rest of the work force, a college student cannot get laid off due to the downward economy. Even better, college students are entitled to a spring break! Spring break is just around the corner. In the meantime take a night off, relax, shake the stress away, and enjoy a night on the town!
Hang in there!

Win passes to Watchmen: Tues., March 3 at the Ritz Five at 7:00 PM
A complex, multi-layered mystery adventure, the film is set in an alternate 1985 America in which costumed superheroes are part of the fabric of everyday society, and the "Doomsday Clock" – which charts the USA's tension with the Soviet Union – is set at five minutes to midnight. When one of his former colleagues is murdered, the washed-up but no less determined masked vigilante Rorschach sets out to uncover a plot to kill and discredit all past and present superheroes. As he reconnects with his former crime-fighting legion – a ragtag group of retired superheroes, only one of whom has true powers – Rorschach glimpses a wide-ranging and disturbing conspiracy with links to their shared past and catastrophic consequences for the future. Their mission is to watch over humanity…but who is watching the Watchmen?
Campus Philly has 30 passes to the premiere of Watchmen on Tuesday March 3 at the Ritz Five at 7pm. To enter to win passes to see Watchmen, email Brittany by Friday, February 27 at 2pm.

Volunteer to help UNICEF put an end to the preventable deaths of children due to a lack of clean water.
Do you want to help UNICEF change the lives of millions of children around the world who need access to clean, safe drinking water?
Every day, 4,200 children die from waterborne diseases. UNICEF believes those numbers should be zero. To raise awareness about this critical issue, the U.S. Fund for UNICEF launched the Tap Project, a nationwide campaign that provides safe drinking water to the world's children. During World Water Week, March 22-28, 2009, restaurants across the United States will encourage patrons to donate $1 or more for the tap water they usually enjoy for free. Every dollar raised supports UNICEF water, sanitation and hygiene programs. Just $1 provides a child with safe drinking water for 40 days!
UNICEF needs your help, Philadelphia! Register to be a Tap Project Campaign Volunteer and help UNICEF recruit and support the thousands of restaurants needed to make the campaign a success. Visit http://tapproject.org to learn more and to register as a Campaign Volunteer today! Contact tapproject@unicefusa.org with any questions.
