I hope the rest of you out there are staying awake out there because I’m having difficulty. Even now writing this, I’m having great difficulty keeping my eyes open. Of course it isn’t much of a surprise that the excitement of the new semester has already worn thin three weeks in. However, there is a nice week of Digest filled activities ahead to help re-energize! Here is what you missed on this week’s Digest.

Alternative Spring Break Fundraiser Concert

What is better to get your energy up then a rock concert? Going to a rock concert and helping your fellow students fundraise money! Alternative Spring Break takes place during regular Spring Break but the students on this trip go to a part of the country (this year is in Maine) and help build a Habitat for Humanity house. This Thursday February 4 at 7pm, 3rd Avenue will play a concert to help the ASBers raise money. There is a $3 suggested admission at the door, and $1 popcorn and soda will be sold during the concert. A $1 raffle ticket will be sold Thursday during lunch and at the concert with prizes like $100 off housing. Rock out, relax, and help your fellow students make a difference!

Football Frenzy Finale

Remember at the beginning of the Fall Semester how I highlighted the Football Frenzy contest on campus? Well the final is here, the Superbowl, and you can reap the rewards! A collaboration of SAGA, Campus Rec, YAC, Campus Life, A ‘Viands, BBQ Club, Res Life, AODA, Campus Safety, Campus Bookstore, Twin Ports Movies, and UW Superior Athletics bring you this event live in the HWC. Food, Prizes and a Madden tournament (some fees apply) prior to the game starting at noon are all offered to all who come. The Football Frenzy is this Sunday, February 6.
