Blue Demon Week - February 16-22, 2014

Dear Faculty, Staff and Students, Welcome to Blue Demon Week! Thanks to the leadership of the Student Government Association and many of our students, staff and faculty, this year marks a new tradition for our university—a week of special events to celebrate our love for DePaul. I invite our entire university community, including our faculty, staff, students, alumni, retirees and friends to join in, show your school spirit and participate in one of the many activities. More information about Blue Demon Week activities is available in Newsline and on the DePaul Activities Board website. You also may follow the hashtag, #BDW2014. The weeklong celebration will culminate with men’s and women’s basketball games on Blue Demon Day, Saturday, Feb. 22. I especially encourage faculty and staff to participate in “Wear Your Blue Day” on Thursday, Feb. 20 by wearing either royal blue or your favorite piece of business-appropriate DePaul gear. Numerous groups and departments from across the university made our inaugural Blue Demon Week possible, and I would like to express my personal gratitude to everyone who dedicated their time and effort to organizing this year’s events. These organizing partners include:
Advancement Alumni Relations Athletics Blue Crew Campus Recreation Chartwells College of Computing & Digital Media DemonTHON DePaul Activities Board Enrollment Management & Marketing Facility Operations Future Alumni Association	Health Promotion & Wellness Housing Services Information Services Public Relations & Communications Residence Hall Council Residential Education Student Affairs Student Centers Student Government Association Student Involvement The Theatre School
Thanks for supporting all of our colleagues and joining in this week in whatever way you are able. Enjoy the first of what will certainly become a lovely tradition at DePaul. Go Blue Demons!! Rev. Dennis H. Holtschneider, C.M. President
