January 31, 2020
Can you believe January is already over? It’s crazy to think that week four grades are almost due… soon it will be Spring Break! But don’t let all your homework bog you down, there are plenty of fun activities happening on and off campus this upcoming week! As per usual, our Lions will be on the prowl with more athletic events.
It’s also Super Bowl Sunday this weekend. Flowers Hall has you covered for a Super Bowl Bash to watch the game.
If sports aren’t your thing, you can indulge in ice cream for breakfast in STL or learn time management tips! Read below for all the details.

Flip on over to Hyland Arena for gymnastics and wrestling
This week the lions are stepping out of the den for a week jam-packed with sports. Hyland Arena will be booming with the usual volleyball and basketball, but there’s also more in store this week! The women’s gymnastics team and men’s wrestling team will both have showings this week. Or, you can bundle up and head over to the Centene Community Ice Center and rally on the hockey teams.
