Howard Hewitt – Like so many other student-faculty events, it’s hard to tell who’s having more fun at the twice-a-year Midnight Munch – the students or the faculty/staff.
During fall and spring finals’ week, faculty and staff volunteers serve up breakfast food from 11 p.m. – 12:15 a.m. It’s a big hit with the guys! More than 300 turned out Tuesday night, according to Horace Turner’s door count.
Assistant Dean of Students Mike Raters helps coordinate the event. The faculty and staff mainly handle the serving and clean-up chores, but a few find their way to the grill to flip a few pancakes. Bon Appetit prepares most of the food.
The students are able to fuel up for a late night of studying and the faculty/staff volunteers get to enjoy each other’s company and have a little fun with the students.
It’s a great Wabash tradition! See attached photo album for more photos!
