UCC students, today is day 3 of Mental Health week. Did you know we can move our mood by moving our bodies? Regular moderate physical activity helps to ease tension, improve quality of sleep, and increase self-esteem. Exercise also releases dopamine, a feel good chemical in our brain. Today, get creative in how you include movement into your day. Pay attention to how you feel before, then notice if movement changes your mood in a positive way.

The boys rugby team met heads with St. Pats and Great Lakes last night on the Lancer field. Tries were made by Jared L after a long sideline run and Landon B with his brute force after pushing his way through what seemed like half of the St. Pats team. Our boys lost both games but this is the best result we've had against St. Pats yet losing 2 to 4 tries. Keep up the good work guys, you make UCC, Lancer Proud!
