Midnight Breakfast – a gastronomical (though unscientific) gauge of student success – was held from 10 p.m.-midnight Thursday in the Keystone Dining Room. The free student meal featured a menu of breakfast sandwiches, bacon, home fries, ice cream, a yogurt bar and beverages. Just over 700 attended, served by members of Dining Services, Athletics, Residence Life, Penn College Police and the Office of Student Engagement. Besides eating, students enjoyed "create a creature" stuffed animals and cuddles with real-life fur babies that eased them toward the starting blocks for that Finals Week dash.
