The Coup and Mr. Lif’s Not So Excellent Adventure
Link of the Week
In light of the fact that finals have taken control of our college
based chapters and end of the year updates will be coming in over the
course of this week, I’ve decided to show some love to a few websites
that have a strong relationship with Hip Hop Congress.

UNIVERSITY OF COLORADO DENVER:
We recently held a successful Elements event on the 5th of December. The event brought in 300+ people and raised $800 for our future project. We were told by the student union staff that it was the most successful event a student organization has ever organized. We also also collected a ton of canned food and got a lot more people interested in learning the elements. – Tom
CAL STATE LOS ANGELES:
CSULA HipHop Congress Presents: 1st Annual HipHop International Festival. It went down December 7th, 2006 @ The CSULA Golden Eagle Ballroom. The whole entire purpose of the festival is show how ALL nationalities, races, cultures, genders, sexual orientations, and everyone period can get together for hiphop… -Laquan
WAYNE STATE:
This is Gerald Terrell Vice President of Hip Hop Congress Wayne State Chapter, Detroit MI as far as updates we are moving forward quite smoothly and things are really looking up. We are doing heavy recruitment right now so we can build our member base. We are holding our second mingle session on December 13, 2006 venue TBA. We are inviting all of our students and residents of Detroit out to this event to push the name of Hip Hop Congress. That’s going to be the end of this semester for us and trust me we have big things ahead for Winter 2007!!!
WASH U:
We are getting our budget mess figured out, we got a pretty good line up for next semester including One Be Lo, Brother Ali, Screenings of Rize, an STL showcase, and a round table on prisons. Other cosponsored events include the Chicago Afro Beat Project, the Eidan Reichel Project, and the Elena Rubin trio. – Yoni
USC:
Just a little facebook fun with our HHC group. We are getting people to post their favorite video via link to youtube on our group page. Finals are around. Nothing too crazy, just some procrastination fun.

CONCORDIA COLLEGE:
Planning is underway for the 2nd Annual HHC Minnesota Summit at Concordia College. It will be held from Feb. 16-18th. For more information email Amer Ahmed (dawahpoet@gmail.com)
SAN JOSE STATE:
San Jose State has been busy planning events for next year since this is our last week of school. Our football team finished 8 – 4 and 5 -3 in the WAC and will be playing in the New Mexico bowl, a feat that our college has hardly ever accomplished. Wish us luck! Today’s News, group of MC’s from the chapter including myself have been performing all over San Jose. We did one on the Eastside a month ago, one last night @ MACLA, and one tomorrow night in the Ballroom of San Jose State @ 6:30pm. Tickets 10$. Peace.
CAL STATE FULLERTON:
CSUF HHC has had an incredible last month with three back-to-back events: Can I Kick It? Tuesdays Halloween Edition, Slow Your Role, and Revival of the Fittest. We also had an end of the semester banquet, where we dressed in suits and dresses and had all-you-can-eat sushi. It was disgusting how much sushi we ate! We’re already planning our events for the the Spring semester, which will include a Hip Hop film festival, in addition to a gigantore mega show, which has yet to be named. Good luck on finals and have a great winter break! Peace.

There are ten mental exercises, or ways of thinking, that you can learn and practice every day to become a more positive, confident, and optimistic person. The more you think in these ways, the better you will feel, the more you will accomplish, and the faster and more easily you will accomplish it.
