SAGE Cultural Trip!
SAGE Members attended an
Irish music event at the

also given a tour of the library
and enjoyed a free meal. We
hope you’ll join us next time!
Library photos were taken by SAGE member, Kaylee Helton.

I’m graduating, what’s next?
We have declared April as Mentoring Month in SAGE! Stop in
and visit with our wonderful mentors during their office hour, or
schedule a time to meet with them separately, and you’ll receive a
surprise treat! Office hours posted on SAGE bulletin board.
I’m not sure if I’m actually
registered for my classes.
Help please!
I’m graduating, what’s
next?
Should I take online
classes or not?
I am worried about my finances
next semester.

April Mentoring Schedule
What Could I Do with My Life?
If you find yourself asking that question, join Kim Perkins this month for a new SAGE
workshop series that will help you find your “why”; your purpose and those things in
your life which are most meaningful. Our “why” relates to career choices and also
those hobbies and activities we decide to participate in outside of work. The work-
shop series will be interactive and engaging, with hands-on activities and
discussion. The workshop dates are as follows:
April 2nd, 9th, 16th, and 30th from 12:30 - 1:30 in the
SAGE area. Hope that you can join us!

Brain Teasers
1) Your parents have six sons including you and each son has one sister. How many people are
in the family?
2) A man was walking in the rain. He was in the middle of nowhere. He
had nothing and nowhere to hide. He came home all wet, but not a single
hair on his head was wet. Why is that?
3) Forrest left home running. He ran a ways and turned left, ran the same
direction and turned left again, ran the same distance and turned left
again. When he got home, there were two masked men. Who were they?
4) Paul’s height is six feet, he’s an assistant at a butcher’s shop, and wears
size 9 shoes. What does he weigh?
