No-Shave November Results!

No-Shave November is officially over for the Instructional Technologies team at PLU. We as a team, and our loved ones of course, have endured endless itching to bring awareness to cancer research across the globe. For such a fitting end to this momentous occasion, we would only trust Joel's VIP Barber Salon (located conventionally in Tacoma, WA).

No stranger to the fine art of barbering and considered an artist amongst her peers, Xanna took our scraggly beards and turned them into respective masterpieces. Yes, you'll want to do a double-take right about now as you witness (perhaps for the first time) the Hogan (Steve), Two-Face (Travis), and the Monkey Tail (Patrick). 

Thank you once again to everyone who was involved and helped in promoting this effort. Over $450 was raised and will be donated on your behalf to the American Cancer Society! We did it Pacific Lutheran University, friends, and family!

Embrace the Itch!

Since our last post, things have gotten a little hairier around the Instructional Technologies Department at PLU. If you’re just catching up to our tale, our brave trio of beard cultivators have forsaken the razor for the entire month of November to increase cancer awareness around the universe. Our designated charity is the American Cancer Society and for donations larger than $1,000,000, we recommend that you deal directly with them. To learn more, simply visit www.cancer.org.

We are also looking for a few, good (wealthy) sponsors right here on campus, to pledge their support to our effort. To begin, simply choose a donation amount and a beard style which strikes your fancy (chart included for reference below).

Each dollar donated will represent one vote towards the style of your choice. At the end of the month, the top three styles will be tallied and then worn by the participants within Instructional Technology. Cast your vote and donate today (via our new Google Form)!

 In the meantime men, keep those faces furry and embrace the itch.

No-Shave November!

What better way to raise cancer awareness, then to not shave for the entire month of November. Obvious, right? That's what we thought. And so...our journey began.

We are the Instructional Technologies...dudes...and we've stopped shaving this month in order to donate what we'd normally spend on shaving towards cancer awareness. "No-Shave November" is a global effort with it's own official website. To learn, simply visit:

That's not all though! Expect more updates as the month progresses. Oh...and don't forget to comment on how manly we all look if you happen to see us in the elevator and such.  

Sincerely,
PLU Instructional Technologies Dudes
