Many students have stated that the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown measures made it difficult for them to fully engage with on-campus life. Even now, registered student organizations, sporting events and other recreational campus activities potentially appear to not have reached pre-2020 attendance levels.

Understanding this, Group Three of the Honors Collaborative Research course (HNRS 486) would like to gauge student opinions, firstly on the best way to reach them, and secondarily on their opinions on their own experience with campus engagement.

Those interested can take the group’s survey. It should take under five minutes to complete, and it will close on Dec. 1.

The Student Government Association is collaborating with WSU Green Group to hold the second annual Earth Day Festival on campus from 4 to 8 p.m. Friday, April 21 at the Hubbard Hall east lawn. Come for food, live music and more, with a farmers market nearby.

The 65th session of the Student Government Association is coming to a close, and President John Kirk, along with his executive team, would like to show their appreciation to the student body for their support over the past year.

The “give back” food truck drive will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Wednesday, April 12 in the Shocker Hall Courtyard. Representatives from the Student Government Association will on location to pass out the free meal tickets to a truck of choice to students until the end of the event. This will be the last event held by the 65th session’s executive branch before the transition to a new government.

Three food trucks that frequent the campus have been invited to the event:

• The Flying Stove
• Wheat Street Dogs
• Bubl Works
