Community-On-The-Quad
On April 25, all you need is peace, love and ESU, according to the Student Senate at East Stroudsburg University of Pennsylvania. All local businesses, clubs and organizations are invited to come together for the 15th annual “Community on the Quad.”

The theme “Peace, Love, ESU” is meant to bring the campus and local communities together for a “groovy” day.

In order to participate, Student Senate requests a nominal donation of $20 which will be used for scholarship funding through ESU’s Foundation. With that donation, vendors will be provided with two chairs and one 6-foot table that may be decorated to coincide with this year’s peace and love theme.  Vendors are welcome to sell merchandise at their tables.

“We welcome any opportunity for our students to connect with members of the community,” Efia King, a senior majoring in communication studies and sociology from Philadelphia, Pa., who is vice president of the Student Senate, said. “It really means a lot to students when they gain support from the community— it makes us feel like we are a part of something bigger than our campus.”

The Student Senate at East Stroudsburg University is committed to accurately representing the views of the university’s student body and providing services to individual students in order to advance their academic and social progress. The Senate promotes the general welfare of ESU’s student body. It serves as a medium for expressing the opinions of university students on matters of general interest by providing experience for all of its members in leadership skills and democratic government. The group is also responsible for oversight of student organizations and allocation of student activity funds.
