Friday, August 26th, 2011 Weber State University had their seventh annual Wildcat Block Party, themed “Blast Back to the ’60s. The whole place was covered with tie dye, and peace signs while The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and other ’60s music filled the air.
What is the Block Party?
The Block Party is one of the biggest events on campus all year. It’s goal is to help students learn about services, clubs, departments, and organizations across campus. Students can get information about everything from the Wrestling Team, the Women’s and Nontraditional center, Davis Campus, Veterans Services, Health Professions, and Botany. “Sometimes people can be intimidated by office situations…we want to make it a fun and relaxed environment where students can approach a booth and ask questions, play games and get to know the university better,” said Nikki Nicolas, the chairwoman of the event.
