If studying for finals has made you lose your holiday spirit, and caused you to look for other forms of distraction, then look no further. Until Dec. 9, the Student Engagement Committee will be hosting events to help students de-stress from finals, as well as get them into the holiday spirit. On Monday Nov. 28, Student Engagement held the event: Do You Want to Build a Snowman? Students received the opportunity to take a break from studying and get a feel of some homemade snow.

Students got to be creative and make their own little, snowy bundles of joy by using fake snow, felt and pipe cleaners to bring them alive. The Student Engagement Committee was thrilled with their inclusive and festive event. If you missed it, don’t worry, the Student Engagement Committee has hung posters highlighting many other fun opportunities to partake in this week.

If you have trouble finding them, you can go and take a look at the Student Engagement Facebook page, search for WOU Student Engagement. They also have their own personal Elf on the Shelf, who will be announcing these events. The Student Engagement Committee will even provide an opportunity for you and your friends to help name the little guy. The other events include things such as snowman bingo and a stress ball making station. So, if you want to join in, make sure to check out their page for daily updates and information about these fun winter events. It’ll get you in the perfect spirit for the tree lighting event on Friday Dec. 2.
