Last Monday, November 9, seven Slivkans met with Tim Higgins, the engaging campus minister at the Sheil Catholic Center, at Giordano's. We indulged in Eli's favorite, tomato and garlic, as well as a spinach pizza with green peppers and sausage. Yum!

Today (Sunday, November 15th), we - a group of 4 slivkans - went to the East Branch forest preserve in DuPage County to launch the rockets we had built. The launch went great, and all of the rockets worked, including Art's huge alien-housing satellite. If it wasn't for me though, there would be only 3 slivkans coming back from the trip. Ask me if you want to hear the full story.
 
President Schapiro at Slivka

One of the biggest firesides this quarter was that of President Schapiro. On a Monday evening (October 26th), he came to introduce himself to slivkans and to chat about student life. Particularly, President Schapiro asked us to tell him about our problems. And so it went - first "Sodexho," then "lack of diversity," then "difficult classes," and even "construction outside my class" - just about everyone complained about something, and President Schapiro promised to do his best to get some of these problems resolved. Moral of the story: President Schapiro is very accessible and claims to be on the side of the students. I don't know about you, but I'm pretty excited about that.

Four Slivkans had the joy of eating a scrumptiously home-cooked meal at Dr Hatch’s house last Sunday. They were pleasantly surprised to find themselves in a cozy home with the smell of spices and a friendly dog to greet them at the door. Their savory dinner included ginger-carrot soup, a Halloween-themed tart, pumpkin pie, and a lovely conversation with Dr. Hatch and her partner.

Despite the torrential rain, Slivka's mighty team of Quidditch players took on CCI in one of the first Northwestern Quidditch matches! Though we lost (boo CCI cheaters), our fearless Quidditch-ers didn't let that (or the rain...) douse their spirits. Plus, the warmth provided by Butterbeer kept all the spectators and the players happy!
