Even well into the night students kept working on the 2025 Winter Carnival Snow statues. Last year’s warm temperatures made it difficult for teams to include as many details as years past. But with much more snow still on the ground this time around, students have much more material to work with.
This year we obviously can put a lot of detail into it, but we kind of focused on being symmetrical this year. So just building it out as symmetrical as we can and then kind of just adding detail from there, that’s kind of the route we took. And then adding the dragon in there just brought it all together and we’re just adding on little details right now as well. – Ethan Smith, Junior, Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity
Fueled by multiple pots of coffee and cases of energy drinks brothers of the Phi Kappa Tau fraternity kept working past midnight. Junior year student Ethan Smith says he has plans to sleep today with classes canceled for Thursday and Friday.
Oh yeah, I mean it’s a grind. We have too much going on right now during a winter carnival but it’s a blast. These are the memories you’ll remember forever. So yeah, I don’t know. It’s very time-consuming and it’s like lack of sleep and all that sleep deprivation. Like I’m already getting tired right now but it’ll be a lot of fun for the week to come. – Ethan Smith, Junior, Phi Kappa Tau Fraternity
Tonight campus will meet inside the Rozsa Center for stage revue, the annual comedy sketch night. Blue Key President Skyler Spitzley says groups tend to throw in references to the local area, another university about 100 miles away, winter weather, and the university. All in good fun.
And then they put in different like little like side digs and things like that. So I think it allows the campus to get together because a lot of the digs are like things that we all relate to. So like I think last year was a lot of northern digs, a lot of transportation remarks, like there’s just different things that as students I think it all shows that we all suffer in this and we can all laugh about it and come together and support each other. – Skyler Spitzley, President, Blue Key Honor Society
Stage revue will begin at 7 pm tonight. Throughout the day students will also participate in other activities like the SnowShow in Lot 11, a SnoBall crash course, or cross-country skiing.
