The newly-renamed Student Center will hold its Grand Opening on Wednesday, and activities and promotions have been planned for the whole day. Students should seize the chance to explore new corners of the SC and take advantage of free food and giveaways.

SC Open House

The Student Centers’ new motto is “Connect. Eat. Relax. Shop.” Students interested in any of these activites should explore the Student Center for discounts, new venues and new spaces for some old faces.

Each location is having its own game, giveaway or activity, so don’t miss the chance to grab some free stuff and engage with people you’ll be seeing for the rest of the semester.

Sweets, Selfies, Signs

Some of the day-long activities include opportunities to sign up for the MLK Day of Service, a room devoted to desserts, mobile violinist Rhett Price, a video game lounge, caricature artists and even custom street signs and license plates.

SC Takeover

The Grand Opening culminates with an array of events, including a cooking demo presented by the Council of Ethnic Organizations, a Greek Showcase, karaoke, a preview of this year’s Frontier Fiesta and a showing of “Guardians of the Galaxy” from 8 to 10 p.m. in the Student Center Theatre.

Be warned, you might not be able to attend everything!
