CUB Announces Spring Trips

Looking for college sponsored trips around the state of Ohio?  have no fear, CUB has you covered.

The College Union Board has decided to send students to three locations throughout the semester.  Sadly, none of them appear to be the rumored sky diving trip.

On March 28th, CUB continues a tradition of promoting shop-a-holic-ism with a return trip to Easton Shopping Center in Columbus.  Tickets are $5 and will go on sale March 22nd.  The $5 gets you on a bus to Easton, and allows you the entertainment of a movie.  Exact times and movie name has not been released yet.  It’s a good chance to go to a great shopping center and check out some cool places, like the Apple Store.

On April 4th, the CUBbies will be going to the Columbus Zoo.  There is no price announced quite yet, but tickets are to go on sale March 29th.

On April 25th, its time to play baseball.  Well, kinda.  CUB will be taking MC students to the Cleveland Indians game against the Minnesota Twins.  No price has been announced yet, and no ticket sale date was mentioned either.

Justice Coming to Marietta

Justice, a music duo from France, is coming to Marietta.  I don’t know much about them, other than I do have one song from them, called “D.A.N.C.E.”  It’s pretty good.  They’re a club group, so be ready to dance if you go.

It’s Saturday night, starting at 8 PM.  The night is co-sponsored by CUB and Charles Sumner Harrison Organization.

Super Bowl Party Time

I hate the Steelers (yes, I am a Browns fan, get over it).

But, I can’t wait to go watch the Cardinals whoop on the Steelers (hopefully) tonight.  And I’ll be doing it with all the other people heading over to the Gathering Place tonight.

IFC and CUB are co-sponsoring a Super Bowl Party at the G-Spot starting at 6 PM.  We’ll have about 300 wings there, along with tons of pizza, and of course, unlimited drinks of the non-alcoholic type.  The game will be on all the TV’s (including the giant screen), and all of the usual G-Spot activities will be available for use (including pool, foosball, and the new arcade machines that they installed).  The fraternities will be bringing their cornhole boards and will have tables set up to inform male students about the positives of fraternal life at Marietta College.  CUB will be bringing prizes to raffle off (mostly Steelers stuff, but I’m sure that most people in the area won’t mind that).

So, 6 PM tonight at the Gathering Place…be there or be square!

Bernadette Pauley Coming to Marietta

Comedian Bernadetta Pauley is in Marietta Saturday night at 10 PM in the Gathering Place to entertain students as part of the Welcome Back Weekend festivities that CUB has been put together.  If you’ve never heard of her before, she has been all over the place.  According to her website, she has been on Raw Dog Comedy (on Sirius XM Radio), Comedy Central, VH1, and other shows/movies.

Check out a video of a set she performed and a clip reel after the jump.
