Another photo of our favorite academic coach/chemist/ horticulture extraordinaire, Ron Warnet. Ron grows the most beautiful gardens every year and we are so fortunate here at Simpson College to benefit from his talents! We may be going through a pandemic but Ron does his part to bring a little extra sunshine and cheer into CARs and we really appreciate him!
A note from Ron to the students of Simpson College!

Excited to kick off CARds for Kindness in CARs (Center for Academic Resources, Simpson College) tomorrow!
CARs is ready for Valentine’s Day this year! We pride ourselves on service to others through our Academic Coaches, Writing Consultants, Writing Fellows, and Peer Academic Leaders (PALs), among other services. With our newest service, we will offer cards for most every occasion, both serious and funny, and we even have the stamps! Beginning this Friday (February 14), stop by CARs, fill out a card, and take it with you to hand out or leave it with us to send! We will have postage stamps for a small free will offering and if you don't have any change, we will be happy to stamp your card and send it for you. Let’s spread some kindness by letting others know we care! 💕
The days only seem to get better as we get ready for more snow tomorrow. In the meantime, campus looks so beautiful in the snow ❄️
Happy Monday! Have an amazing week! 🤗 ☺️
We wish you a fun and safe weekend!! Stay "cool" 😂😉❄️

Each year, Simpson College colleagues gather for a potluck luncheon on the Monday after finals (when the students have left campus for their holiday break). This year's theme was Twas the night before Christmas, hosted by staff of Dunn Library and the Center for Academic Resources (CARs). Books were collected to donate to children who may need a little extra special love this Christmas. The event was a success and we would like to extend a special thank you to those of you who contributed.
