RUC is comprised of six elected members of the Executive Board, including president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, public relations officer, and chaplain, as well as up to two senators from each major in the School of Undergraduate Studies.

Dear Facebook,
 
Facebook Heart BrokenBy Robyn Bera
Communication Major
 
It's time we had a little chat about our relationship. You've been a great friend to me, since first meeting a few months back. We've grown quite close and I thank you for the countless hours we've spent reconnecting with old friends, and finding new ones. I will never forget our 2am chat sessions, our sharing of photos, videos, memories and aspirations, and all your wonderfully addicting applications, groups and games...for full article (click here)
 
Apologies
FlowersBy Michan Myer
English Major

I owe God (and my husband) an apology.  My husband and I had a pretty ugly argument this afternoon that essentially boiled down to my choice of punctuation.  Now to some aspiring writers, punctuation could be that big of a deal, but this wasn't the case here at all.  I simply got angry about something that was NOT a big deal, and it unleashed a string of unkind words and hurt and hurtful emotions.  By the time my tirade was coming to a close, my husband was as hurt and angry as I was.  I sulked into Wal-mart, fighting back unhappy tears, while he sat in the van with the kids...for full article (click here)
 
He's Alive!
Easter EggsBy Ellie Keith
English Major
...and a 3 year old with faith!  
 
A few months ago I was at a home daycare as an observer for one of my psychology classes.  I sat off to the side and watched the daycare provider teach her little charges about the sacrifice Jesus made for us all.  She used a carton of plastic eggs to tell the story...for full article (click here)
 
"Now Wait a Minute!"
Screaming Child 1By Ashley Andrews
Journalism Major 
 
Here they come, a mother and her daughter, making their way from the parking lot toward my door. They are on a mission; I can tell. They have come for one thing, and only I can help them get it. As they enter the store, the two march right up to the register. The then mother utters six short words, "She wants to get her ears pierced." For full article (click here)

Study Tip: Plan a Study Trip.  
 
For some people, grabbing a blanket and curling up on the couch is just what they need to start long hours of studying. For others, this is torture. The moment you curl up on the couch your eyes start to droop and next thing you know and you are dreaming about serving the Lord after college. Here's a way to wake you up and get you closer to those dreams.
Study Coffee 
Plan
a day of the week when you don't have work or classes and go somewhere without distractions. Maybe the park or a coffee shop fits your style. Find a place and get in your zone, then when you go home, you can rest..and dream!
