by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca

CAMPUS BEAUTIFICATION DAY will be held on Thursday, May 24, 2012. This is the 15th year of this highly successful event which is made possible by the great leadership of the Physical Plant staff. Staff, students, faculty and retirees are invited to participate on a voluntary basis to help beautify the campus. Each department is requested to designate a CONTACT PERSON who will be responsible for coordinating the volunteers from their department. The name, department, address and phone number of the contact person should be forwarded by Friday, April 27, 2012 to: Fort Garry Campus - campbeau(a)cc.umanitoba.ca<mailto:campbeau@cc.umanitoba.ca> Bannatyne Campus - jerry_wind(a)aramark.ca<mailto:jerry_wind@aramark.ca> If you have any questions, please contact Lyle Morin at 474-6286 or email lyle.morin(a)ad.umanitoba.ca<mailto:lyle.morin@ad.umanitoba.ca>.

Jobs such as picking up paper, raking, sweeping, pulling weeds and planting flowers will be identified. The Department of Philanthropy will be approaching garden centres for donations of flowers and plants. Physical Plant staff will be assigned to each zone to work with the contact people to coordinate the projects. A brown bag meeting of all contact people will be held in the Multi-Purpose Room, 2nd Floor, University Centre at noon on Tuesday, May 8, 2012 to finalize the arrangements. Refreshments will be provided. On Campus Beautification Day, a barbecue lunch sponsored by ARAMARK will be held at noon in the quadrangle on the Fort Garry Campus and in front of the Brodie Centre on the Bannatyne Campus for all volunteers. Pepsi will be providing the refreshments. The Bookstore as well as various other business on Campus will be donating "door" prizes for the event. This year the Grand Prize is two airline tickets donated by West Jet. Teams are encouraged to propose projects which will be judged and the best gardens will be awarded with first, second and third prizes. Last year many innovative ideas were presented so please submit your ideas to campbeau(a)cc.umanitoba.ca<mailto:campbeau@cc.umanitoba.ca> (Fort Garry Campus) or jerry_wind(a)aramark.ca<mailto:jerry_wind@aramark.ca> (Bannatyne Campus). Volunteers are asked to bring gloves, rakes and spades from home although some will be provided by Physical Plant. Physical Plant will be hiring additional grounds staff during the summer to maintain the work. The project will commence at 9:00 AM and continue throughout the day. Everyone is invited to participate for as much time as their schedules permit. In the event of rain, the rain date is Friday, May 25, 2012 so please keep that date open as well.

Ever woken up not feeling like yourself? Welcome to the club.

by all-students＠lists.umanitoba.ca

Ever woken up not feeling like yourself? Welcome to the club. So has the rest of Canada. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Almost every single person in every community across this country has felt anxious, stressed, even depressed at some point, including many of your friends. So you're in good company. What's important is to pay attention to those feelings. That's part of dealing with your mental health. And the more you look after it, the healthier your life will be. Sadly, some people live with those feelings all the time. You may even know someone. Now imagine having to live with the shame, discrimination and lack of treatment and support that goes with it. It's time for change. The University of Manitoba recognizes the importance of raising awareness of the issue and encourages you to find out more with Partners for Mental Health<http://www.notmyselftoday.ca/>. They are a national, non-profit organization whose mission is to transform the way we think about, act towards and treat mental health in Canada. If you're looking for support, we provide counselling services to students on campus. Find out more at: http://umanitoba.ca/student/counselling Dr. Lynn Smith Executive Director, Student Services
