March 2025
Time for the MOD SQUAD update!
There has been so much going on for the Reynoldians and it may feel a bit chaotic. Before we get to our usual update I want to say thank you to everyone for sticking through this difficult move and giving it their best! Change can be very hard but you all were phenomenal and I am very proud! Although we have lost our Reynolds title temporarily, it will remain as a part of our spirit.
1C2C1D, you may have been split between the Modular units but you will always be one! With that said, you can all still count on Khortney and myself! We do not want to separate any of you from each other so we will remain a solid Reynolds/ModSquad unit. As usual, we will combine our many flavors and personalities that mesh together like mint chocolate chip ice cream! Now, back to regularly scheduled programming.
February was a bit stressful so we kept it calm with plenty of snacks. For March we will pick back up the speed! We have a lot of fun planned from pancakes to grilled cheese to karaoke to an IVIZ! I cannot wait to share photos from this month in April. Stay tuned from some important updates below!
NCSSM Prom 2025:
“The Prom Committee is excited to extend an invitation to all residential students to join us for a night at the Medieval Promenade of 2025. Prom will occur on April 5th from 8pm-12am at the Museum of Life and Science in Durham. Click HERE for details about the event, how to purchase tickets, important forms, transportation options, and more!
Each year, the Prom Committee invites NCSSM families to participate in the festivities by volunteering the night of Prom at the Museum of Life and Science. There are many opportunities to be involved, from helping out with set up, to organizing the coat check, to serving appetizers, desserts, and drinks, to directing students throughout the museum, and of course the dash to clean everything up and pack it away in record time at the end of the night. Even if you can’t join us at the museum for prom night, you have the opportunity to purchase desserts for students to enjoy! For more information about volunteering at Prom, check out this link and be on the lookout for an email from Trish Aiello in the coming weeks for signups!
In keeping with tradition, Student Life will also host an After Prom event for students to enjoy late night pizza in the PEC after prom ends. Additional details about the event and how to participate will be shared with students in future communications.
As you and your student make plans for Prom 2025, please do not hesitate to reach out to the Prom Coordinators at prom@ncssm.edu with any questions.”
Residence Halls Closing & Opening:
“Just a quick reminder that the Residence Halls will be closing on Friday, March 21st at 5:00pm. Halls will reopen on Monday, March 24th at noon.
Students will submit an Overnight pass on Orah before or during our hall meeting right before the Extended Weekend. On this Orah pass, they indicate where they are going for the break, who they are traveling with, and how they are getting to their destination. If students have specific questions about checkout procedures for the Extended Weekend, they should speak to me.”
Move Out:
“Juniors and Seniors will receive an email with information concerning move-out in the next week or two. In the meantime, best practice is to start evaluating which items you may be able to take home over the upcoming extended weekend and spring break. The more items you can get home over our final extended weekends of the year, the easier move-out will be for you. Good items to consider taking home are winter coats and clothes, extra furniture, and large items.”
