Mavericks skate into second semester

Yesterday from 9 PM to midnight, students were invited to the All-Seasons Arena for an open skate to kick off the new year as well as the spring semester. Snacks and hot cocoa were provided, karaoke also took place alongside ice skating. The event was free to all MSU students.

Atlas James, the Vice President of the Student Events Team said “I think ice skating has been a hit in the past for students as it’s something that’s exciting that brings us into the winter feeling! It’s a tradition here at MNSU, has went on for a few years, and students enjoy it!”

James also said “I’ve been planning the event since October- I wanted to make sure students had something exciting to look forward to coming back to campus. The main process of planning the event was working with All Seasons Arena off campus to reserve the space for students.”

As we start the new semester, keep an eye out for upcoming events to take a break from your studies.
