I was so sad last year, because I had to miss the first ever foam party here on campus. If you don’t know about campus activities board (CAB) yet, then you should definitely look into that organization! They are in charge of throwing social events here on campus and getting students engaged. This year they threw their second annual foam party, and it was a HUGE success! They had free tshirts to graffiti by a professional for the first 75 people, and those were gone within the first thirty minutes of the event. I mean, they might have even been gone sooner, but I know they were not there when I arrived. They held the event in the basement of our giant new parking garage. They had a foam machine that basically filled up a dance floor area with shoulder high foam. If you were dancing by the foam, it would even topple over your head. It was amazing. They had a DJ playing music, and everyone was dancing around having a great time. Of course they had snacks and games, but the foam was, for good reason, the highlight of the event. I cannot wait until the event next year. I love when campus wide events are successful and become traditions. It’s really neat, because the idea of a foam party was something that people took and just ran with. Now it’s evolved into a huge event that people get excited about months in advance. If you have great ideas on how to engage students, you need to bring them to Incarnate Word. This is truly a place where you can make a difference on campus!
