Mobile Loaves & Fishes, Inc
Mobile Loaves & Fishes, Inc. (MLF) is a social outreach ministry to the homeless and indigent working poor that provides “food, clothing and dignity to our brothers and sisters in need."
Started in Austin, Texas in 1998, MLF came to Nashville in June of 2007. Belmont Sociology classes–with help from faculty and staff drivers--provided 18 additional days of service to MLF this fall. Belmont and MLF have formed a partnership and hope to expand our service over the holiday break and throughout the spring semester (and beyond)!
MLF has volunteer opportunities for everyone: Individuals, Families, and Organizations (e.g., fraternities and sororities, bible study groups, dorms, clubs). If you are willing to work, we can use you!
In addition to making and delivering food, MLF needs other kinds of assistance such as “make ready” teams. If you’re interested in volunteering, contact Sara Hylton, MLF Program Director, at shylton@mlfnashville.org. Each run lasts about 4 hours and you can help as much or as little as you like throughout the term. Community Service Convo is available.
Lastly, MLF can use the following:
•Gently used clothing or blankets that you no longer need. At this time, we are particularly interested in coats, hats, scarves, and gloves that will protect people from the upcoming winter weather.
•Small toiletries -- shampoos, conditioners, soaps, combs, lip balm, lotion, nail clippers, tampons and feminine hygiene products, shaving cream/razors, toothbrushes/paste, toilet paper
•Individually wrapped medicines such as 2-pill Advil packs, band-aids
•Baby wipes
•New socks (Highly desirable item!)
We invite you to use drop off box outside 300H Wheeler.
Any questions, please feel free to call or email.

New SGA Web site!
Student Government Association is always hard at work supporting students through many different areas. Over the last several months, we have been busy creating a web site that will offer many different resources to students and administration alike. After considerable effort, that web site is now up and running! Below is the link that will take you there:
This site has many objectives, but most importantly, we want to keep campus informed on what your SGA is doing for you. Please add it to your favorites, and check it regularly to stay informed.
As always, you can contact SGA at any time with any concern that you may have. Our e-mail address is sga@mail.belmont.edu, and phone is
(615) 460-6428.

Speeding and Unsafe Driving on Campus
Dear Belmont Community:
The Office of Campus Security has received several complaints lately of
speeding and unsafe driving on campus, especially in the parking
garages. A few of the staff members and students have reported vehicles
running bicyclists off the road and pedestrians nearly getting hit by
vehicles traveling too fast in the parking garages.
As a reminder, the speed limit on campus is 15 MPH. The speed limit in
the garage is 10 MPH. Please refer to http://www.belmont.edu/ocs/2007-
08_parking-rules/traffic-regs.html for more information on campus
traffic regulations.
Please help keep our campus safe by communicating these concerns with
students and/or other faculty and staff members who may not receive
this email.
Thank you.

The mail center has moved!
The new location for what will now be called the "Mail Services Center" is the corner of 12th Avenue South and Acklen Avenue. You can see that location at #54 on Belmont’s campus map http://www.belmont.edu/campusmap/pdf/campusmap.pdf
Our new location opened on Monday, October 15th. Operating hours will remain Monday-Friday 8:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Main phone lines will be 460-6638 and 460-6639, Fax number is 460-6103. You will need your Belmont ID to enter the facility.
All current mail services will only be available at our new site. For your convenience, “books of stamps” will be sold in the Copy Center and the Bookstore. Mail delivery for departments will not change. A final mail pick-up will occur each day in the copy center at 3:00 p.m.
Student mail will still be taken to the residence halls, but all student packages will now be held at the new site. This includes all packages for Bruin Hills, Hillside, Commons and Thrailkill Hall. Students will need to provide both a package slip and Belmont ID for package pick-up. This new procedure will insure the security of all packages.
If you have any questions please e-mail Veronica at smithv@mail.belmont.edu or give the Mail Center a call at 6638.
We look forward to working with everyone at our new location,
Mail Services Center Staff--Adam, Stephen, Troy and Veronica
