Dear First_Name

Now that you’re into the semester we’re hoping you’ve found your study vibe again and are signing up to clubs and societies or renewing your friendships in them. You’ve no doubt already made your way to one of the fantastic food trucks on campus for lunch with friends, and maybe you’ve found some great spots around campus to simply chill. If you have a quiet moment right now, and if you haven’t already done so, download the ACU Life app for iPhone (coming soon for Android) for easy access to a whole lot of events on campus and online. You don’t need to wait for the fortnightly “What’s on” newsletter to discover what’s available, so happy browsing of the events and groups ready to welcome you.

Writer and peace activist Anne Herbert coined the phrase “practice random acts of kindness and senseless acts of beauty” in 1982 when she wrote it on a restaurant serviette in San Francisco. Just over ten years later Professor Chuck Wall of Bakersfield College, California, challenged his students to perform a “random act of senseless kindness” after hearing a radio report describing “another random act of senseless violence”.
