Is Spring Break here yet?
Spring break is like the trailer for the
movie (summer break) that is going to
come soon afterwards. While it is only
one week long, it is a much needed
break to refresh for a lot of students.
As there are many events going on all
around Texas during this time, we encourage everyone to enjoy this break
responsibly.
Frontier Fiesta is almost here!

Frontier Fiesta is the University of Houston's oldest and proudest
tradition. Established in 1940, it began as a festival to promote
the University of Houston when the University first moved from
downtown Houston to its present location.
Scheduled to take place March 26-28, the event will include live
concerts, variety shows by student organizations, carnival booths,
a barbecue cook-off and more.
Location: TDECU Stadium
Don’t forget to apply: Every year, the Frontier Fiesta Association
gives scholarships to deserving incoming freshman and current
UH students. These scholarships not only reward academic
achievement, but also recognize outstanding efforts in community service. http://www.uh.edu/fiesta/

Stay on the safe side with these Safety Tips

·
·
·
Do not walk alone at night and always be aware of your surroundings,.
To call an escort, dial the number behind your cougar card: (713)743-3333.
Do not store valuables in your car or in plain sight.
Always keep your room locked. It is important that all roommates have this shared
expectation.
·
Do not let unknown people follow you into the residential building without using
their access card. While it may be uncomfortable not to hold a door open for an
other person, the security system and card access systems work best when this
practice is followed.
·
Never prop doors open. If you notice a door propped open or not closing correctly,
please un-prop it or report it immediately to the area service desk or RA.
Report suspicious people or activity by dialing 3-3333 from any campus phone, or
by dialing (713) 743-3333 on cell phones.
