Welcome (Back) to MPTC!

The first thing I went to the first week of the fall semester wasn’t class, it was the Welcome Back Lunch featuring comedian Adam Ace. It felt a little strange to be “back to school” but not back to class yet. It was a pretty good way to ease into the fall 2012 semester.

I met up with a friend from Student Senate in the cafeteria for the show and free lunch. Adam Ace had a lot of variety in his show. He incorporated people from the audience, including our own student life advisor, into the show. He got him and a student to dance on stage in funny costumes.

I especially enjoyed the part where Adam showed us pictures of the signs he comes across while traveling the country. There were signs with typos that changed the intended meaning, signs that didn’t make any sense at all, and some signs that were just plain ridiculous! I love looking at them.

Student Senate is in charge of choosing and planning entertainment, such as this event, for students throughout the year. If you want to get involved, come to the next Student Senate meeting at the West Bend campus on Wednesday, August 29. You can find out more information by visiting the “Events” page of my blog.

For those of you who are new to Moraine Park, welcome! And for those of you who are returning, welcome back! Let’s make this semester the best one yet!
