Join the Involvement Center and Menomonie Rotary as we pack meals to fight childhood hunger within our community and throughout the world! Sign-up is open to individual students/staff or student organization groups. Packing sessions are an hour long and run from 1:25pm-2:25pm, 2:30pm-3:30pm, 3:35pm-4:35pm, 4:40pm-5:40pm. There are also volunteer shifts available for set-up and cleanup.
Individuals wishing to register for more than one timeslot must select the number of timeslots they'd like in the quantity field before registering. You'll then be prompted to select a timeslot for each ticket.
If you wish to register as a group, each member of your group must reserve their own ticket and be sure to pick the same timeslot. Space is limited in each session, so we suggest that your group registers early as we are unable to hold spaces. Groups should only register for one timeslot to provide opportunities for other students and groups.

Navaratri is popular festival celebrated across south Asia. The festival is nine nights and is typically celebrated through dance. Join us for a night of traditional dance spanning three regions of India and beyond! No experience is required as dances will be taught by student representatives. While many students may be dressed in traditional attire, there is no dress code for participants. The only thing you need to bring is a sense of adventure and eagerness to explore another culture!
Bridging the Divide seeks to reduce partisan division by fostering civil discourse among students and promoting civic virtue. The program brings students with different ideological and partisan political perspectives together for small group conversations about current political issues and beliefs.
Rather than reaching a consensus, the goal is simply to replace snark with civil dialogue and increase engagement and understanding between people with different opinions. We replace snark with conversation, tweets with real talk, and scrolls & likes with face-to-face dialogue. In addition, we like to make it fun and enjoyable with FREE SNACKS!!

Survey about academic calendar preferences open
The Educational Activities Committee invites students, faculty, and staff to weigh in on the academic calendar. The EAC creates the academic calendar each year and would like to have better data to guide its choices.
The academic calendar preferences survey is not for a specific calendar year, since each year presents unique challenges; rather, it is meant to guide the EAC for several years to come. The survey will close Friday, Oct. 3.
