Turkey time!

I know Thanksgiving isn’t until next week, but I’ve already had my fill of turkey and stuffing, cranberry sauce, corn, green bean casserole, rolls and apple cider. This past Monday evening, the Miami University Student Ambassadors, or MUSA, held their annual MUSA Thanksgiving dinner. I am the staff advisor for MUSA so I get to work closely with these dynamic students, and also I can enjoy the perks like fun dinners such as Thanksgiving! The MUSA Thanksgiving is a time for all of us to eat great food (prepared by all the members), relax, have fun and catch up with each other before everybody goes home for Thanksgiving break.

MUSA is a volunteer student organization that works very closely with the Office of Admission. The MUSA members are here to greet you when you walk through the Admission doors for your campus visit. Kate Mathers, the MUSA President, may email you. On some visit days you might get to eat lunch in a dining hall with a MUSA student. A MUSA member will chat with you if you’ve arrived early for your visit and you’ve got time to kill. And the members are easy to spot—they all wear the MUSA black polo and have MUSA nametags. So if you are on campus for a visit and you see one of these students, you’re in for a treat! These ambassadors are a great resource and are happy to answer your questions or give you their perspective on what it’s like to be a student at Miami. Here is the MUSA website if, you’re interested: http://musa.mugroups.org/ .

You can email MUSA at any time if you have questions about student life at Miami or if you want to try and talk with someone that’s from your hometown area. Their email address is musa@muohio.edu . What better way to get a feel for our campus than to talk with students who are living through the Miami Experience right now?! Email them today. Their inbox is waiting. :)

MUSA Thanksgiving was awesome. We had a lot to eat and enjoyed watching some amusing You Tube videos after playing two truths and a lie. Prospective students: email MUSA with any questions you have! Good luck with your college search!

Chrissy is right, I think there need to be more comments on here. Not that it's a competition or anything, but it looks like Chrissy's posts have the most comments.
