The 2011 Super Bowl is right around the corner, so what are your plans? If you have not made any arrangements, do not fret. There are plenty of options available to everyone on campus.

The men of Lambda Chi Alpha will be hosting a party at Lambda Chi Alpha House starting at 5 p.m.. The game will be watched on a big screen TV, and plenty of food will be provided. Another option available will be provided by Kappa Theta Psi. The party will begin around 4:30 p.m. and there will be plenty of free subs and snacks available. Prizes for guessing the closest score are up for grabs. Kappa Theta Psi is the black and white house north of the baseball field parking lot.
