Students join in learning the moves to a traditional Indian dance, led by Dances of India. The annual International Festival took place in the Great Hall on Jan. 31, where students and staff enjoyed a cultural variety of food, information and entertainment.
On a warm Nov. 28, 2017, MBU celebrated one of its oldest and most fondly remembered traditions with music, food and festivities held in the Quad, Perk and SRC.
A variety of vendors provided challenges, prizes, samples and information about numerous aspects of health and well-being at MBU’s annual Health and Wellness Fair this fall in the SRC.
A quick change of scenery can make for a much-needed day. It’s good to get away once in awhile, and one way is to take in the fresh urban life surrounding the city of Chicago.
