The Waynesburg University Student Activities Board (SAB) met to begin planning events for the upcoming school year Sunday March 26.These events include the ever-popular Bingo, Bisque and Brews and trips to professional sporting matches, along with a few new events to promote more student involvement for SAB programs.

“This year we are looking to add more noontime events for  commuter students, expanding the S.W.A.R.M.s and adding more cultural events,” said Pat Bristor, associate dean of students.

This year the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust is presenting more professional theater shows like “Wicked” that fall in line with the Waynesburg academic calendar, making it more possible for SAB to arrange dinner theater trips for WU students.By going to see professional shows or trips off campus through Student Activities the university gets a discounted rate, allowing Student Activities to pay for half of the tickets. This makes it possible for students to pay only a fraction of what a trip or event would typically cost, said Bristor. Bristor encourages all students to attend SAB meetings and voice their ideas about potential new events and trips.

“Even after the start of the school year, it’s never too late to add an event or program to the calendar,” Bristor said.
