In collaboration with Associated Students Inc. (ASI), the event will include tabling from student organizations and campus partners, giving students the opportunity to connect with support services, learn about involvement opportunities, and engage with the broader campus community.
In addition to exploring the exhibit, attendees can enjoy free snacks and take part in a gaming tournament with prizes, creating a lively and welcoming atmosphere that celebrates the museum as a space for learning, connection, and student engagement.
Whether you are a gamer, a student looking to get involved, or someone curious about the cultural impact of video games, this event offers a fun way to learn, play, and level up.
