Thankful for a community of family, professionals, friends, mentors, sheroes and heroes 💜💜. I️’m constantly in awe of how much they give of themselves to ensure this community is solid and whole. I’m overwhelmed and blessed by the fact that this Black, Queer, Christian, First Gen, Woman received everything I came here for. #naspavi #nufpalum #belovedcommunity #bestconferenceever ever (at Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort)

Day 7 - Challenge your body & mind! 🎵"Listen as your day unfolds, challenge what the future holds, try to keep your head up to the sky." 🎶 Student Affairs is like learning headstands -- we need to provide a strong base of support to balance the level of challenge we present our students & discern when they're ready to grow further. #studentdevelopment #sanford #sagrad #csamphotoaday #naspavi #strongereveryday #makeithappen #blogilates

Tumblr Tuesday!

Happy Tumblr Tuesday, Region VI! 

This week, we want to highlight some great use of technology and social media from the "Rise Above the Competition, Navigating the Job Search" Southern California Drive-In Conference hosted by Chapman University. Attendees were able to communicate with the whole Southern California executive board and conference planning committee to provide live feedback through text and a simple code! "Naspa6RiseAbove" was also the official hashtag for the weekend. To follow the conversation now, you can search "Naspa6RiseAbove" or follow @naspa6's Twitter feed! Did your Twitter handle make it on our wordle above?!

If you're not on Twitter, join with the help of our Twitter tutorial here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UZHj_jeOk0M
