Yesterdays show our guest was the new Coordinator of Orientation Programs, Marcella Flores. She explained her history, her new position, and passions behind her work. Washington born, she moved to Oregon for school and graduated from Western Oregon University before moving to Oregon State U. She found joy in volunteering, service learning, and giving to others. As a first generation college student, she excelled, and now she is here with us! You can probably find her in the Orientation Office.
We also have a couple Plugs / Upcoming Events.
First, the Muange Family is suffering from a tragic event that happened last Tuesday. Their 19 year old son (Michael Muange) randomly died of a heart attack and they need financial support for the burial. He was a graduate of Gresham High School, and just finished his first year at Warner Pacific College.

Also, Today (August 6th) at 1:30 in the Multicultural Center, PSU's NAACP is hosting a forum around Oregon's Self Defense Laws and how the Trayvon issue is related to Portland. They are hoping to inform the audience, target the source of separation, and build unity around this controversial issue.
Take Care Everyone!
