Thereβs still time to enroll the kids in green-themed camps. Spring break camps everywhere are filling up fast, but slots remain open for camps where the fun and games revolve around food β growing it, that is.
The Eagle student newspaper staff has been working hard this semester to bring news to the campus. They are not currently printing physical copies, but are still publishing online. Please check out their brand new edition:

ΊωΒ«ΝήΚΣΖ΅ Softball returned to the field on Tuesday to face Hill College after a two-week layoff due to the winter storm that hit Texas. ΊωΒ«ΝήΚΣΖ΅ and Hill would each win a game to split the two-game series. Hill won game one 16-13 and the Eagles would take game two 5-1.
ΊωΒ«ΝήΚΣΖ΅ Baseball returned to the diamond after a lengthy time off from the snow storms that affected most of Texas last week. ΊωΒ«ΝήΚΣΖ΅ hit the road to make up the weekend series that was lost with the Tyler Junior College Apaches. TJC would hold off and Eagle comeback attempt and win the first game of the series 7-6.
The first week of classes can be a stressful time in the life of a college student. To help alleviate this stress, and to encourage students to meet new people, we have planned activities during Welcome Back Week. If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Student Activities at 903-434-8265.
There is a good chance that our area will see some severe winter weather in the coming days and we want to make sure the campus community is aware of our inclement weather procedure.
Ultimately, ΊωΒ«ΝήΚΣΖ΅ urges both students and employees to put their own safety first when it comes to dangerous weather. Since many people commute to campus from some distance, weather conditions may vary. If the campus remains open and you do not feel safe driving, please contact your instructor or supervisor to make individual arrangements.
ΊωΒ«ΝήΚΣΖ΅ Baseball kicked off the season with a road series at Arkansas Rich Mountain on Thursday, winning game one of the series 9-6 before dropping game to Rich Mountain.
