Students will have a week’s worth of activities to help curb the winter blues Feb. 2-7.
The Student Activities Committee (SAC) and Future Alumni Committee (FAC) are sponsoring the ninth annual Winter Week, a week consisting of free activities and events for students of Saint Mary’s University to help bridge the gap between the Christmas and February breaks.
“The winter is kind of ho-hum,” SAC President Maria Borgerson said, adding that the variety of activities “helps to take the monotony out of school.” Borgerson said the week will involve events that will appeal to “all the students,” from card games, movies, athletics and music to “relationship advice for the hopeless romantics.”

The first official Winter Week event, Casino Night, was held on Jan. 25, rather than the originally planned Feb. 1, to try to accommodate football fans who will be watching the Super Bowl.
