Varsity Athlete Up for Auction!

Last Friday was Hobbies for Hilltop! Hobbies for Hilltop is an auction that we hold in the front foyer once a year. I am a member of SASC, the committee that organizes the event. SASC is an acronym for Spiritual Activities and Services Committee on Student Senate. As a rule, nobody knows what the letters SASC stand for, and if they do, they inevitably forget. Anyways, quite an entertaining auction this was- varsity men selling dates, crafters auctioning off dozens of paper roses, and culinary geniuses offering their experience in the kitchen to name a few. The list of creative auction items was 42 acts long. In the end, the school body raised almost $5,000 dollars. This money will be put to great use at the University of Mkar (otherwise known as Hilltop University) in Africa- our sister university. It is always moving for me to go to things like this because it makes me realize, along with many other students, that despite the fact that we consider ourselves poor college students, we know that God has blessed us with way more than enough, and we need to share His rich blessings with our brothers and sisters around the world.
