Since my return from London, I've been busy, busy, busy with work. The end of summer means going out to extended orientation camps, hosting students for graduation events, coordinating details for the Alumni Professionals of the SEC Conference (APSEC), and other random events- like the SEC Network launch party! Anyone that works at or with a university knows that this is a crazy time of the year... and it's definitely lived up to that hype.
In early August, The Association hosted alumni professionals from all 14 universities within the SEC for an educational and networking conference. I went to this last year in Kentucky and had an absolute blast! So, I knew this one was going to be fun as well. I had the privilege to help plan some of the details and loved every minute of the conference itself, right down to the wrap-up breakfast that we had at the George Bush Presidential Library, where I sat in the below replica of George Bush's oval office.
I've also been watching a coworker's dog- she's stinkin' precious and we love having her! Tucker has also enjoyed having a playmate around the house.
Look at that cute little face!
The new student welcome event that I've been planning is upon us- just 12 days away- and I couldn't be more excited! The final pieces are coming together- we received the pallet of soda that was donated the other day- so much soda!!
Then, today at work we hosted the SEC Network launch party, where we had about 1,000 members of the Aggie Network over to join in a Fightin' Texas Aggie Yell Practice, which was filmed and shown on TV this evening. We had a great turnout and the event itself was so much fun! We even had the famous Bus 12 in attendance flying the SEC flag!
It's been a busy, yet really fun few weeks at work and I'm looking forward to the beginning of the school year too, which is nearly here (so hard to believe summer is almost over)!
Until next time... :)
