DATE: December 6, 2009
The research I did online revealed very little about you. You are involved in the use of some social media, but your Facebook account is blocked so only your Facebook friends can see your profile and information. This could be beneficial for future employment opportunities because it keeps the focus of information about you on what you willingly provide potential employers. However, I found by that we have a mutual friend on Facebook, which helped me to see your profile in order to gather more information. I felt like this could be something that a future employer would easily do since it’s such a simple act to ask a friend for some help. That is why I followed that route. The following is what I did find.
You are a Junior at Utah State University studying Political Science and Journalism. Originally from Chicago, IL, you only have one sibling, a little sister. You attended Lincoln- Way East High School in Frankfort, IL, and graduated in 2007. Your boyfriend’s name is Rory Bement, you like sports and seem to be athletic yourself. From your pictures online, I see you enjoy rock climbing. You also seem to have a liberal view on life and your rebellious side comes off through your Facebook info. If someone were to be able to see your profile, I don’t think they would get the most professional impression. At the same time, professional may not be your goal. Open and honest would definitely describe you from an online researcher’s perspective.
From your blog I can see that you’re well into your Journalism program, I can only assume that that is what the numbers are for; course numbers. Showing your work online is important and yours is prevalent. Your online work is the best component of all the research I found.

Press Release 4 (Final)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

PR/Activities Chair
Greek Council
(801) 928-4065
GREEK WEEK FALL 2009
LOGAN, UTAH—Greek Week is coming to Utah State University the week of November 2-5. Greek Week is a week of service, fun, and entertainment focused on the Greek community and organized by the activities chair of Greek Council. This year, Sarah Korich is the activities chair and is planning a fantastic Greek Week. “This year we want to focus on reaching out to the whole campus,” says Sarah. In the past, Greek Week has been solely focused on fun and games for the Greek community. It was a recognition week and a time for the group to grow closer outside of their individual chapters. However, the Greeks have decided their new goal is to reach out to the campus and community. Their new focus is Greeks celebrating Greeks and showing the campus what they’re all about.
The week starts Monday, November 2nd with an all Greek meeting hosting speaker Rick Barnes, former North American Interfraternal Conference (NIC) President and CampusSpeak speaker. Rick travels to college campuses nationwide speaking on topics ranging from leadership styles to drinking, and everything in between. Tuesday the Greeks will participate in the annual Stuff-A-Bus program by asking Logan neighborhood residents for non-perishable items to go to the Logan food pantry. Service is highly valued in the Greek community, and every year the Greeks participate as much as they can in giving to the larger community. Wednesday is a new activity called the Greek Olympics on the USU quad from 3-6pm. Every Greek house is combined into two teams which will participate in competitions such as a mini decathlon, tug-o-war, and a water balloon toss. The assigned teams for the week consist of Team 1: Alpha Chi, Sigma Phi Epsilon, Sigma Chi, and Psi Sigma Phi, Team 2: Kappa Delta, Theta Nu Xi, Pi Kappa Alpha, and Delta Sigma Phi. Thursday will then host the famous Lip Sync competition from 5-7pm in the TSC International Lounge. The teams will be singing songs by artists such as Britney Spears, Ricky Martin, and Nsync, and will be judged by volunteers from ASUSU. Ending the Greek Week activities will be an award ceremony Thursday after the lip sync competition. The overall winning team will receive engraved placks for each house and a fiesta party hosted by Greek Council.
Greek Week is planned and implemented by the Greek Council activities chairman along with his/her committee, executive Greek Council, and the Greek advisors. The committee is a mixture of voluntary Greek members representing each house on campus. The executive members of Greek Council are elected members that serve a year term for each position.
Greek Week will provide a fun atmosphere not only for the Greek community, but also for USU students. Everyone is invited to attend the activities each day and participate at their desired level. For more information about Greek Week contact the Greek Council Activities Chair, Sarah Korich.

Last semester the Greeks raised money for Relay for Life and raised around $2,000. There will also be a lip-sinc contest and performance where each house is grouped into two teams and they compete for a prize. There is also a tentative schedule for a motivational speaker to come present to the campus and Greek community.

FOR RELEASE
Cache Valley Area Investors Association
Founder: Preston Parker
Cache County Chamber of Commerce
160 N. Main St.
CACHE VALLEY CITIZENS LEARN TO CONTROL FINANCES
LOGAN, UTAH—The Cache Valley Area Investors Association teaches individuals to become financially independent and economically content. The Association was founded by Preston Parker who now serves as the president. Parker says in response to reasons for founding the association “I want people to be happy.” There’s way too much opportunity in America for people not to be happy with their finances and their jobs.
The organization was started to give people money advice. It is a way to give individuals more formal education on topics like their finances, investing, and money management. People need to learn how to be financially independent because it can be a rough life when you struggle with money. CVAIA teaches people to lower their expenses and increase passive income in order to become financially independent. Currently, CVAIA brings in speakers to teach different strategies or motivators. They also use books to educate the group about financial independence and wealth. Parker says the top three things a person can invest in are: 1) one’s assets, 2) one’s time, and 3) one’s experience.
Meetings are open to the public and membership is available to anyone who wishes to attend meetings. There are currently eight active members of the association. The group meets every other Thursday at 7pm in the Cache County Chamber of Commerce building in Logan, Utah. (Address Above) The next meeting will be held October 1, with guest speaker Mark Lunt discussing an important topic. The following meeting will host Justin Hamilton, a local business owner, on Oct. 29.
Cache Valley Area Investors Association (CVAIA) teaches people how to increase passive income. CVAIA embraces the Law of Attraction, Law of Abundance, and Law of Exchange. They practice the methods found in the ideologies of books including Rich Dad Poor Dad, The Wealthy Barber, The Millionaire Next Door, Atlas Shrugged, The Automatic Millionaire, and The Secret. CVAIA began in August 2007 and now has members from many geographical locations and from all walks of life. The members come together with the same belief: that education mitigates the risks of investing.
