Golden Key International Honour Society is having a Painting Supply drive for the Kat Krazies (The Official Student Support Group for Bearkat Athletics). We need everyone you know to donate a bottle of paint or supplies so that we can have the larges painting event this school has ever seen.
On Oct 3 when the Bearkats play St. Joseph's University. We want them to run out of that stadium and see 100s of painted people. Thousands would be nice too. This is your chance to help make that happen. During tailgating, the Krazies will be able to help paint up faces, arms, bodies, etc up until game time.
So Come early, Paint up, Be Loud. Eat Em Up Kats.

Boxes will be located in SHB 107 starting on Monday (September 14).

International Conference
Sarah and I just returned from the International Conference held in Orlando, Florida for the last weekend in July. We learned a lot of good things to help take our chapter to the next level, and hopefully see some more chapter involvement.
Look forward to some exciting new events coming up for the next year. If you think you may be eligible for Golden Key, look out in late August and early September for our mail outs. Our New Member Recognition will be held on November 4th at 7:00 pm and we hope all new members will be able to attend.
If you are interested in playing an active role in the upcoming chapter, or have any suggestions please e-mail us and let us know. We'd love to hear from you. Be on the lookout for e-mails when school starts about member meetings, and ways to earn free stuff!
Congratulations to all those graduating in the summer session. If you still need to buy cords, you still have time. Stop by the Economics Office in the Smith Hutson Building, Room 232. They are $15. If you're interested in getting a Golden Key t-shirt before you know, please e-mail us and we'll make sure the office has some for you to buy (the shirts are only $12).
Thanks for everything, and we all look forward to a great Fall Semester,
Jadrian Wooten

Book Drive For Better Lives
Want to do something amazing with that textbook you can no longer use and the bookstore can’t buy back? We have a solution that benefits our campus, the earth, and students around the world! Seriously!
Be Green! Be responsible! Help out your fellow man by improving literacy in Africa while at the same time diverting these books from landfills.
Donate your unwanted college-level books published within the past 10 years (highlighting/writing in books is fine), and any books used in a college class to our book drive. SHSU Golden Key has partnered with Better World Books (www.betterworldbooks.com) to run a book drive that will benefit Books for Africa (www.booksforafrica.org) and we would love to have your support!
We have set up big green and orange collection boxes outside the Lowman Student Center starting May 4th, which will remain up until May 14th.
Books collected will be put up for sale online to raise a sustainable stream of funding for Books for Africa or sent directly to Africa. If the books cannot be donated or sold, they are at the very least recycled. Book drives like this one have earned over $1,700,000 for Books for Africa since 2003.
Thank you in advance for your help with our project – please spread the word to everyone you know!
-------------------------------------------------------
If you would like to volunteer for the aforementioned book drive, we are looking for your help. We need volunteers everyday for the entirety of the book drive who are willing to pass out information to people and ask people to drop off their books. We will have a meeting before the first day of the event. Please e-mail us (shsugoldenkey@gmail.com) if you would like to help, or if you have any questions.
Thanks!
