Do you have a moment to talk about ice cream? The Center for Student Engagement staff want your help.

Thank you UAF for an awesome Summer Ice Cream Thursday season. Attendance on July 17 was just over 350 people eating ice cream in the sun, having fun and helping create community.

Attendance for an event is sometimes a bad goal; event hosts don't get to choose if people want to participate in the "cool to us" thing. It can be a great metric to let staff know how they're doing. UAF, the CSE staff want to see Ice Cream Thursday hit over 400. CSE wants to know people are enjoying ice cream in the summer sun - and the more the merrier.

CSE wants at least one person coming through every 18 seconds for two hours. Will you help? Will you bring your friends? Will you schedule your Thursday meeting outside on July 24 from noon to 2 p.m.?

Hope you serve you soon!
