What do a list of Chuck Norris facts, an iPod Nano bag, and an invoice for a false fire alarm have in common?<\/p>\n
They were all items locked away for five years in the Rosen College Apartments Time Capsule, created by the first group of residents from the 2005-2006 academic year.<\/p>\n
Assistant Director of UCF Housing and Residence Life, Meredith Varner enjoyed the event, \u201cThe students had a really good time, and the staff had some great snacks and drinks for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n
Other objects in the time capsule included: a dried rose from a bouquet a resident\u2019s fianc\u00e9e gave to her when he proposed in a Rosen Apartments lounge; a door tag shaped like a Gameboy; an advertisement for an RA Program — Mashed Potato Sculpting Competition; and a plastic pineapple cup, the symbol of the hospitality industry.<\/p>\n
In addition to objects, the capsule held memory cards that reflected nostalgically on fond memories and friendships cultivated in the student apartments.<\/p>\n
Current residents are filling the capsule with memory cards and items before the end of the Spring 2011 semester, and it will then be sealed for another five years.<\/p>\n
Varner shared, \u201cI was really glad I was able to be there, and it brought back lots of great memories of the first year of the Rosen Apartments.\u00a0\u201c<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"What do a list of Chuck Norris facts, an iPod Nano bag, and an invoice for a false fire alarm have in common?
