Congrats |: t jSpring Into It!! Along with the spring weather finally arriving on the Mer- cyhurst campus, everyone's favorite weekend is here. It's time to 'spring out and'celebrate the sixth' annual Activities Weekend. Now is the chance for the community to support the clubs, departments, and organizations sponsoring events. This is one weekend that offers something for everyone on campus, and it's still not too late to get involved with spon- soring an activity. Just contact Karen Gens or Kathy O'Con- nor, committee co-chairpersons as soon as possible. Kudos to Karen, Kathy, and the MSG body for the hard work they've put into the event. Pray for sunshine! .
