4/13/20 Week at a Glance

Hi team,

We’ve almost made it to the end of the semester, only one full week of classes left! If you’re looking to get some dance in your life this week check out this updated list of resources (and feel free to recommend additions to the list!). We’ve got some exciting things on this week, read on to find out more…

  • It’s election time! Your candidates’ platforms for the 2020-2021 MBDT Executive Board can be found as an attachment to the WAG email. Please take the time to read through each of the platforms thoroughly before our elections on Saturday to be an informed voter. It’s especially important this year due to the unusual circumstances of our election. Have you ever spend hours writing an essay but feel like your professor didn’t bother to read it? Don’t be that person, read the platforms!
    • How the election will work: You’ll receive an email in the morning on Saturday with an electronic ballot (you need to pay your semester balance by Friday to receive your ballot). Submit your ballot by 7pm so your vote can be counted, and then tune into our livestream end of semester celebration at 8pm on Saturday (more details below) to find out the results!
    • $$$:  In order to vote in the election, you must be in good financial standing with the team! Plan on paying off your entire balance by Friday April 17th, Colin will send out the finalized spreadsheet soon so keep an eye out for it in your email inbox…
    • Advance ballot: If you’re unable to vote by 7pm on April 18th, please email me (enabney) to request an advance ballot. Deadline: Thursday April 16th @ 11.59pm
  • End of semester celebration: Although we can’t have our usual end of semester party, we can still celebrate the end of the semester together! We’ll be hosting a livestream on Zoom at 8pm on Saturday 4/18 to crown our team superlative winners, send off our seniors in style, celebrate the highlights from this year and announce the election results for next year’s board! You can find the link to the stream in the Week at a Glance email, so come hang out with your teammates and celebrate the end of the semester! You’ll need to download the Zoom app to join the stream, it’s super easy and takes less than 5 minutes :)
    • Superlatives! Who is the team’s biggest flirt? Most mismatched couple? Team MVP? Cast your vote hereDeadline: Thursday April 16th @ 11.59pm
    • Year in Review: Share your favourite pictures from the past year of ballroom shenanigans by sending them to me (enabney) so I can include them in a slideshow for our end of semester celebration! Deadline: Thursday April 16th @ 11.59pm
  • Arnold highlight reel: Natalie and Grace put together a cute highlight reel from our weekend at Arnold, check it out here 🙂
  • Ballroom bingo! Grace has put together a ballroom bingo card, how many squares can you check off? Tag the team Facebook page or @michiganballroom on Instagram so we can see your answers!

Have a great week, I’m excited to hang out with you all on Saturday!
