This Wednesday, February 10, Lipscomb will have its first Bison Break Day of the spring semester.
Since classes are canceled for the day, some of Lipscomb’s various organizations are planning to host events and activities for students to participate in around campus.
Beginning at 8 a.m., the Vice President of Student Life Al Sturgeon will join students for a morning run. The run will start outside Allen Arena and will be an energizing start to what promises to be an exciting day.
Later that morning, wellness bags will be available to pick up for any students who want to engage in some self-care on their day off. Additionally, the Bison, Lipscomb’s student radio station, will be in the square from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. playing music and giving out free gifts.
At noon, there will be a guided meditation and breathing exercise session hosted on zoom. There will also be a PIG tournament in the Student Activity Center for anyone who wants to show off their basketball skills or incorporate some friendly competition into their day.
A Bob Ross art therapy session will begin in Ezell at 1 p.m. At the same time, the Student Activity Board will be at the front desk of Bennett with mystery novels and cookies. Both are great choices for a quiet but fun afternoon.
The Office of Intercultural Development will be hosting the last event of the day – a movie marathon in Collins Auditorium from 4 to 10 p.m.
In addition to all of the campus-wide events, each dorm will have a valentine-making station set up in the lobby for any residents who want to get a head-start on their Valentine’s Day preparations.
Students can sign up for any of the Bison Break day events by visiting the links sent out in this week’s Have You Herd email. No matter what students choose to do on their day off, they are sure to enjoy a much-needed break from classes.
