Oxygen Bar

I had one of the most interesting days! I am participating in a Shared Leadership program at Boise State. Part of the program is working with a mentor. I was excited to shadow my awesome mentor, Leah Barrett, for the day today. She is one busy lady! We went to a department head meeting from 10-11, a webinar on liability from 11-12, an informational meeting on the professional staff compensation project from 12:30-2, a one-on-one with a staff member from 2-2:30, a meeting with the ASBSU vice president from 3-3:30, and an ASBSU meeting from 4-5. Somewhere in between all that, we met with a student who needs a letter of recommendation, reviewed budgetary issues for one of her departments, discussed recent issues with several staff members, and even stopped by the oxygen bar sponsored by the student programs board. Have you ever heard of an oxygen bar? Well I hadn't, not until today anyway. It's kinda weird - they gave us each these hoses - we stuck one end up our nostrils, and plugged the other end into one of several flavored vials of oxygen. I tried the almond, lemongrass, and cherry. Supposedly different flavors should result in different effects (i.e. appetite suppressant, invigoration, etc.) From what I understand, there aren't any firm facts indicating that these actually work, but I still thought it was interesting! I didn't have my camera with me, so no picture of the hose up my nose :-)
