In this issue: free FroYo and cocoa at CampCo, oh my!
WI22 - Weeks 7-8:UC Scooter Defense edition.
Complying with fire.
Well maybe not actual fire, that is, but definitely some warm fuzzies by way of hot cocoa – and hotter compliance – at tonight’s (Feb. 25)Camp Cozy event on campus, during which the first 200 Tritons to get boosted upstairs in PC will receive a $5 Yogurt World voucher.
FroYo coupons and cocoa at CampCo?For sho. In addition to therapy dogs, crafts, and carnival games, Student Health will have booster appointments available from 6 to 10 p.m. – meaning there’s still time for “less-than-compliant” Tritons to get their shot and avoid academic holds that go into effect after March 1.
The Booster Bucks stop here.
March 1 also marks the last day of our Booster Bucks program, where being up-to-date with your mandated vaccinations begets $10 in Triton Cash.
Happiness Pi. Once you’ve been boosted, be sure to fill out a Health Info Consent Form to ensure you get that $10 credit during the next Triton Cash disbursement on 3/14. And if you received a b-shot outside of UC San Diego, you’ll need to upload your vaccine pertinents into MyStudentChart.
Send vids plz.
So far, we know that more than 28K students have already been boosted – for one reason or another – and now we’d love to hear why.
Carpe DM. If you feel inspired, please send a short video to VCSA@ucsd.edu with a few thoughts on “why you got your booster,” and we’ll hook up some free Triton swag while we work on a compilation to share back out in the coming weeks. If it was literally just for the free yogurt or Triton Cash, that’s fine too!
Got your attention?
If the last item about creating #content piqued your interest, then this next opportunity may be right up your alley as well. And if our video idea is ridiculous, well, then feel free to show us how it’s done!
Excite and engage. Our colleagues in communications are hiring three students for their Sun God Social Team – a group of paid student employees who serve as campus ambassadors and create content for UC San Diego social media channels like IG and TikTok. If you’re interested, feel free to apply on Handshake.
Spring Break, you off.
If you're looking to connect, grow, or serve your community during the March 21-25 break and want something to do that's fun, engaging, and educational: we've got you covered, Tritons.
Tracks on tracks. Visit the Spring Break 2022 website to peruse a week’s worth of activities and opportunities in dedicated interest tracks like research, health & well-being, leadership, service, and more.
Quick Hits and Bits
Self-care is not selfish. Week 8 can be overwhelming In “normal” times, and with all that’s going on in the world, things are decidedly not normal at the mo’. If you need academic support or help getting connected to resources, please contact your Dean or Assistant Dean of Student Affairs.
Everything’s bigger in TEC. Including the monitors! Come check out the new Triton Esports Center at their grand opening celebration on March 4.
