<Title>Egg Day</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">When you've lived long enough, there are specific moments that stand out in memory as the true turning points.  Had those brief instances played out in a different way, you would have lived a completely different life, never having the experiences, meeting the people or traveling to the places that came to mean everything to you. <br>
    <br>
    Sometimes those moments hinge on strokes of luck, for better or worse: the random encounter, the missed connection.  More rarely (it seems to me), they involve someone else's intentionally grabbing the dice and changing your game.<br>

<Title>Chartwell&#8217;s Upcoming Events &#8211; February</Title>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><br><p>If you usually eat at the dining hall, you’ve probably stumbled upon one of Chartwell’s events. Each semester, they put together themed programs that encourage people to come eat and enjoy the festivities. They have a calendar of their events posted inside the dining hall and some events are advertised on posters in the Commons and the UC near their restaurants. Many of them fall on holidays but this month, however, there are oodles of special occasions and give-a-ways to attend!</p>
    <p>Every Friday at Mondo’s Subs, you can get a Footlong for $5! This is comparable to Subway’s deal, but is conveniently located right inside the Commons. Be sure to check that out if you don’t have a meal plan and want to save some cash.</p>
    <p>This Sunday, February 7<sup>th</sup>, True Grit’s will be hosting a Superbowl party. No need  to trek through the snow to the supermarket for chips and salsa, get your sports attire on and head over to the dining hall between 4:30 pm and 10:00 pm. Watch the Big Game on their big screens and have all the food prepared and kept warm for you – plus, no dirty dishes to wash!</p>
    <p>On Tuesday, February 9<sup>th</sup>, stop by True Grit’s during their lunch hours, 10:45 am – 2:00 pm, for the Black History Celebration. Chef Steve Pierce will be serving Pan-fried Cod with Parm-Mashed Potatoes.</p>
    <p>Starbucks will be hosting a Grand Opening Ceremony on Wednesday, February 10<sup>th</sup>. Every 100<sup>th</sup> customer will receive their order for free! A ribbon-cutting ceremony will take place at 2:00 pm. Other specials will be announced on location. If you love coffee, be sure to stop by!</p>
    <p>On Valentine’s Day; Sunday, February 14<sup>th</sup>; a Chocolate-Lovers Dessert promotion will be served during dinner hours, 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm. Enjoy the best chocolates that True Grit’s has to offer!</p>
    <p>Salsarita’s will be promoting a Free Flip Tuesday on February 16<sup>th</sup> between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm. “Any cash, credit, flex or retriever dollar paying customer gets a chance to win a FREE side of chips and salsa or a fountain beverage.” – taken from Chartwell’s website.</p>
    <p>That night (Tuesday, February 16<sup>th</sup>), A Mardi Gras celebration will occur in True Grit’s at dinner time, between 4:30 pm and 7:30 pm. Be sure to check out some of those Cajun flavors that will be served.</p>
    <p>February 17<sup>th</sup> and 18<sup>th</sup> will consist of a Spin-the-Wheel promotion held at Famous Famiglia Pizzeria in the Commons between 4:00 pm and 6:00 pm. Not too many details are released about this event, but it sounds like it could save you some money or provide you with free pizza or some of the other menu items offered. Stop by to see what that is all about!</p>
    <p>Stay on the lookout for other Chartwell’s events on campus. Many giveaways and chances to win free or cheap eats are almost always present. The themed dinners in the dining hall provide an interesting new alternative to the usual menu.</p>
    <p>Happy Eating!</p>
