Tonight was a great event here on campus. I think I mentioned it before, but tonight was the Red Light, Green Light, Date Night here at UIW. In the past this has just been a social event. However, tonight it evolved to a whole new kind of fundraiser. When I walked in at 7:30 pm, Marian Ballroom was full of people. Right by the door I was offered raffle tickets to some amazing baskets. Then I walked through the silent auction tables. There were about ten people who were being auctioned off. The bidding started at five dollars and then students could walk through and add bids throughout the evening. Of course there was food for everyone to eat. In the back there were tables with couple games. You could go with a friend or your significant other and answer game show like questions. FINALLY, the back wall was full of tables for speed dating. I had never tried it before, but it was a blast. We met a ton of people, and it was a great night. Also, they raised money for Project Africa, so it was a successful night!!
