OSGA Corner
Although March may be one of the longest months of the year due to coming after a short month and having to spring forward an hour, it is also a very important one. It is Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, and here at Post University, the team is ensuring that everyone has an equal opportunity to learn. To find out more resources and contact someone about assistance with a disability, please follow the link below:

In March, the OSGA raises awareness about the supports and rights of people with disabilities and celebrate their contributions to society. Education is key to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.

The power of Intention:
Intention gives us a direction that helps us settle into new capacities. We move from void to abundance. We become our own guide and harness the positivity that comes with each day.
When you set an intention, it provides accountability and allows you to take control of your personal choices and life. It’s about being proactive in your own life, by purposely choosing how you want to live it.
Honors Club Hosts Fun and Entertaining Open Mic Night
The Open Mic Night is an event the Honors Club has been planning since the Fall 2022 semester. We put a lot of time and effort into making it a reality. Our goal was to bring the community together for a night of entertainment and fun and allow students to show off their talents. This could be in the form of singing, dancing, reading poetry, or telling jokes during a late-night dinner on Tuesday. The event was very successful and had a bigger turnout than we initially anticipated it’s something we hope to bring back every spring semester as this event was something we noticed students enjoyed and had a lot of fun.
