What an April we’ve been having! Superior-y weather, earthquakes world wide, the Stinger Magazine being out on newsstands, nuclear treaties, finals is four weeks away, the TV show Glee being back, did I mention the Magazine being on newsstands?  Yes, I know shameless advertisement, but I can’t help myself.   I can legitimately say -for the sake of this article- that yes the Magazine was on the Digest, so please go out and procure your copy! Here are some of the other things you may have missed on this week’s Digest. 

Circle of Native Nations 21st Annual Powwow
This Saturday, April 17th at 1pm the Circle of Native Nations is hosting its 21st Annual Powwow at Wessman Arena.  Festivities include dancing, drumming and other Native traditions.  This is a great opportunity to learn more about cultures, especially of the Ojibwa people from the Duluth-Superior area, as well as to just learn in general.  A feast will be held at 5pm, followed by another Powwow at 7.  Buttons are $3 or free with a Student ID.  

UWS Spring Formal
Want to win a date with an athlete? On April 27th, 13 athletes will be auctioned as dates for the UWS Spring Formal on May 1st.  The Formal will kick off at 8:30pm with a dance-off between athletic teams, and will continue until 1am.  The formal is put on by the UWS Athletics Department, and is a celebration of the school year as well as one awesome way to end a semester.  Tickets cost $5 before May 1st and $10 at the door. 

Public Static (Band)
Everyone listens to music, its one thing that connects nearly all of us.  The Yellowjacet Activities Crew recognizes this, and is bringing in Public Static, a band from St. Paul to rock the Yellowjacket Union this Thursday April 15.  Forget tax day (actually only forget it if you’ve already filled your taxes), and enjoy! The show starts at 8pm and is FREE.
