Jackie Obermeyer, Dr. Meade, Daryl Obermeyer, and Lezi Fudge
Movember Organizer T. J. Bekart
One of the more active PSC campus groups is the Rotoract Club. And I attended one of their signature events, the Movember Ceremonies, at 7:00 PM in the Fine Arts Recital Hall.
Sponsored by the club and organized by T. J. Bekart, Movember worked to raise consciousness about cancer in general and prostate cancer in particular.
At the ceremonies, Daryl Obermeyer discussed his own experiences as a prostate cancer survivor, and both Jackie Obermeyer and Dr. Meade furthered the discussion about cancer and good health.
Vice President of the Rotoracts, Lindsey Tomen, and President Lexi Fudge introduced speakers and talked about the Rotoract Club and its various activities.
These students do a wonderful job on campus, and I was pleased to take photographs and will work to get better shots next year.
A few hundred students from area schools visited the Campus of a Thousand Oaks to take part in a number of events that mix education and entertainment in imaginative ways and that engage future teaches from the college with area third graders.
As I have done in the past, I spent a couple hours with my cameras at the festivities and uploaded 70+ photographs of the students and the soon-to-be student teachers at the various rooms that featured various exercises.
These exercises combine Science and Math with fun, from seeing what happens to various objects in a microwave--the DVD disk is my favorite--to creating volcano lamps (tie-dye sixties fun) and a variety of measurements, including the cost of items at a grocery store.
