Save Your Sunday Coupons
Hate to clip coupons? Do you throw them out when the Sunday paper comes to the house? We have a better solution!
The TRIO and Single Parent Program is going green and assisting students by collecting unwanted full or partial coupon inserts from Sunday papers. Put coupon inserts into a campus mail envelope each week and forward them to the TRIO office in Bldg. 5 at the FOC. Our plan is to create coupon packets to distribute to parents during workshops and events. We recycle, and students save.

Taking Charge of Your Development
Retaining high-caliber employees is a pressing problem facing businesses today. Surprisingly, lack of professional growth often beats compensation as a reason why employees are leaving. This course enables employees to initiate, create and execute their own development plans with their leader. Having employees who continuously learn and improve skills enables your company to quickly adapt to and capitalize on opportunities.

Weekly Green Tip
Keep lids on pans as you cook. Cooking without them can require three times as much energy as cooking with them on. Look for pans with glass lids if you like to keep an eye on what you are preparing.
