We're putting the final touches on this semester's on-air schedule. But, we would like to have a few more participants. You could do a weekly one-or-two hour music or talk show. WMTB has listeners worldwide on the Internet (msmary.edu/wmtb)! Students should contact Robert Plum, and staff should contact Randy Gray.
Not all heroes wear capes! Campus Ministry is looking for students willing to rescue the much-beloved Donut Thursday tradition by volunteering to pick up donuts from Dunkin on Wednesday evenings around 6 p.m. You need not volunteer every week-- at minimum we are looking for those willing to do this 1x/month.
We want to keep Donut Thursday going, and will bring donuts to campus every Thursday in proportion to those willing to assist us in this endeavor! If you have a vehicle and want to help us out, please contact Millicent Griesemer at m.m.griesemer@msmary.edu.
