5.  LGBT Peer Mentoring Program

Are you interested in discovering new aspects of who you are, finding connection and community, and moving forward on your personal goals? The USC Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) Resource Center's Peer Mentoring Program is your ticket to success in all of these areas!

Our mission is to help students develop a positive LGBT identity while successfully adapting to life at USC. College can be overwhelming at times, whether you are a freshman or graduate student. Peer mentors are here to support you in a safe, caring, one-on-one relationship while you work on your personal, social, academic, career, and lifestyle goals.

Our peer mentors represent a wide variety of majors and personal backgrounds. What our mentors all have in common is that they have comfortably integrated their sexual and gender identity into all facets of their student and community activities and roles. Mentors are here to help you explore your personal interests, take advantage of campus resources, and find your own sense of community.

International students can apply to be a mentee in order to learn more about:

• Setting and achieving personally meaningful goals.
• Exploring your multiple identities (e.g. gender, cultural, religious, etc.).
• Finding a comfortable place in the community (e.g. USC, Los Angeles, etc.).
• Discovering your purpose in life (e.g. your career path).
• Developing mature relationships (e.g. friends, dating, accessing faculty, etc.)
• Creating a balanced lifestyle (e.g. work, rest, and play time!)
International students can also apply to be a mentor in order to:
• Develop rapport with your mentee.
• Help your mentee to create specific personal goals.
• Establish boundaries for the mentoring relationship.
• Plan specific activities that meet the needs of your mentee and his/her goals.
• Connect your mentee to USC and local Los Angeles resources.
• Have fun together and learn as much from your mentee as s/he learns from you!

To apply, fill out a mentee or mentor application via the following link: http://sait.usc.edu/lgbt/mentoring/index.html AND email it to mypeermentor@gmail.com.

DailyLit News: Banned Books Week

Contents


Note from the Founder

It's Banned Books Week so we're celebrating books that have been banned through the ages. From Alice in Wonderland to The Bible, I'm always amazed at which books have been banned. So I figure what better way to celebrate the week than by picking up (or in DailyLit's case, signing up for) a book that's been banned. Anyone up for it? Let's all band together against banning books!
Cheers,
-Susan
Susan Danziger
Founder and CEO, DailyLit
sdanziger@dailylit.com
Twitter:@susandanziger, @dailylit

Vote for Your Favorite Banned Book

Which is your favorite banned book? You can vote here for one of these in DailyLit's library or any others that may have been banned:
-Charles Darwin's On the Origin of Species (a classic)
-Henry David Thoreau's On the Duty of Civil Obedience (get inspired)
-Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin (learn first hand why it's controversial)
-Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland (I can't believe that was banned)
-And then there's The Bible (need I say more).
We've created a special category on DailyLit of Banned Books where you can find other possible entries.
So, what's your favorite banned book? You can vote here now.

Creative Challenge: School Jitters

Now that our kids have settled into school, we can all breathe a sigh of relief. But before we forget those first day jitters, I thought it would be fun to ask about your own first days of school. So in one sentence, describe a scene or memory from that time. Recall how you felt here.

Highlight: Back to School Video Courses

With back to school time, I thought I'd feature DailyLit's expanded library of Khan Academy Video Courses. My kids have used them for basic math, and I've watched ones on the French Revolution and biology (I admit, I've stayed away from ones on differential equations and organic chemistry). You can find the entire DailyLit library of video courses here, including ones on investing, probability and even brain teasers. Why should kids have all the fun.

September 2011

Dear Cheng Yee,

September is Pet Health Insurance Month!

We'd like to celebrate by sharing three unusual claim stories. They're a good reminder of why it's so important to protect our furry and sometimes accident-prone friends. We also have some ideas to mark this month, as well as a few tips on visiting veterinary specialists.

Unusual Pet Claim Stories  

Every pet is unique, and so are these stories.* We're happy that we were able to help these pets through these odd incidents.

Knock on the Noggin

Fitzgerald, a spunky Maltese, loved chasing squirrels. That is until the day they got the upper hand. They knocked an avocado out of a tree, which landed square on Fitzgerald's head!

Fitzgerald was out cold, and off to the veterinarian. He was treated for a mild concussion, and is now fine. But the squirrels certainly gave him something to think about.

A Very Hot Jump

Rudy, a Calico cat, showed off his jumping skills by leaping from cabinet to stove. Unfortunately, the ceramic stove top was hot, and his front paw got burned.

The veterinarian wrapped his blistered paw in a bootie, which Rudy did not want to keep on. His paw has since healed, but Rudy still isn't afraid to jump on the appliances.

A Too Happy Tail

Emma is a very happy Yellow Lab who constantly wags her tail. This wouldn't be a problem, except she takes medication that thins her skin, and all that banging caused lacerations.

Even a sad tail couldn't stop Emma from wagging, and the sores wouldn't heal. She eventually had to have her tail shortened, but she's still as happy as ever.

Remember, if your pet ever has a run in with an avocado or jumps into trouble, we'll be there to help with the veterinary bills. Don't miss more stories on our blog about an olive pit eating Yorkie and more.

  Celebrate Pet Health Insurance Month

Pet Health Insurance Month is about celebrating the bond we have with our pets and the importance of protecting them. Here are a few ideas to mark this month.

Spread the Word

Let other pet parents know how pet insurance can help them. You can tell your friends easily right from our website.

Schedule a Check-Up

If your pet hasn't had a yearly physical, set one up with your veterinarian. Routine visits can help prevent future health issues.

Show Some Extra Love

Take a step back from your busy day to spend a little more time playing or cuddling with your pet. It'll be time you can both enjoy!

Need a Specialist?

Our August newsletter had advice on emergency care for your pet. Your pet is also covered for specialists – from dermatologists to cardiologists – as long as they're licensed veterinarians treating covered conditions. Here are a few tips:

  • If you're not sure what kind of specialist might be helpful, your regular veterinarian can be a good resource.

  • Make sure the specialist reviews your pet's medical records and understands the history.

  • Don't hesitate to talk to your veterinarian if you have questions about the specialist's treatment plan.

Keep in mind that we don't require a referral to see a specialist. If you need help finding one, try our Veterinary Locator. You can also learn more about specialists for dogs or for cats at the ASPCA's website.

Rockin' and Running with Team ASPCA

We're ready to run with Team ASPCA in the Dodge Rock 'n' Roll Los Angeles Half Marathon on October 30! Team ASPCA is the ASPCA's national endurance training and fundraising program that helps build awareness through events across the country.

The Hartville Group, Inc., which provides ASPCA Pet Health Insurance through its subsidiary Petsmarketing Insurance.com Agency, Inc., is organizing a team to run in the Los Angeles half marathon and raise money for the ASPCA. The ASPCA has set a $1 million fundraising goal for this event, and as their strategic partner, we're committed to running our hearts out to help reach it!

See how you can join in the fun and help our friends at the ASPCA by sponsoring our runners. Also check our blog for updates!

For more information about Team ASPCA, visit www.teamaspca.org.

Pet Speak: A Customer's Story*  

When Leanne, our beautiful Shih Tzu, started limping, I took her to our veterinarian who referred Leanne to a specialist. Finally, she was diagnosed with a broken femur bone. Ouch! Luckily, she's now recovering well.

ASCPA Pet Health Insurance really came through covering a large part of her treatment, including the specialist visit. I was also thankful for the compassion, sincerity, and honesty of the representative who helped us with our claim.

— Lisa L., Chapel Hill, N.C.

TAKE A STAND AGAINST VIOLENCE

. If you decide to have a party in your home or apartment consider not having it open to the public.
. When you host a party, lock your valuables in a room not accessible to the guest of the party.  Jewelry and small electronic items are easily concealed and popular targets in a party setting.
. When you do not recognize someone, ask him or her to leave. You can contact DPS by phone or use TC4T (text to 274637, TC4T and your message).  TipSubmit is an App available for smart phones (Androids or IPhones) that makes submitting your information very easy and allows you to send a picture also.    
. If you observe a crime in progress, STAY CALM AND CALL DPS (213)740-4321.  
. BE A GOOD WITNESS.  Describe exactly what you observed with as many details as possible.  Give complete descriptions such as sex, race, age, height, weight, hair color, clothing, tattoos, or scars.  Try to get the license plate if a vehicle is involved.
. You are also able to Report Crime ANONYMOUSLY via TipSubmit, a smart phone App, or text to 27467: TC4T and your message.
