Upward Bound

The UW-Platteville trip is full. There is still space on the UW-Milwaukee Open House trip. You must get your parent permission form to UB before the trip. (The deadline for this was October 3!)

UB students will have more chances to sample some of the great theater and music our area has to offer:

* Friday, November 13 - FROZEN - 7:30 p.m. at UW-L Frederick Theater, Morris Hall (16th & State)

"Angry, humane and compassionate, FROZEN is an extraordinary play that entwines the lives of a murderer, the mother of one of his victims and his psychologist to explore our capacity for forgiveness, remorse and change after an act that would seem to rule them out entirely."

* [Saturday, November 14 Career Day - NOT optional - info mailed soon!]

* Sunday, November 15 - SOUND OF MUSIC - 2:00 p.m. at SPARTA HIGH SCHOOL (506 N. Black River Street) Loosely based on A TRUE STORY!

"A Holiday Classic! On Christmas Eve, Ebenezer Scrooge learns his stinginess and uncaring attitude could doom him to walk the earth as a spitit wearing a heavy chain of his own creation. But visits from the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Christmas Present and Christmas Yet to Come show Scrooge how to change his future."

College visit sign ups are now closed. If you had your PARENT PERMISSION in by the extended deadline (October 9), you are on the list. If not, you will be on a waiting list.
