Wing Night Wednesday in CC Commons offered free boneless chicken wings to the first 25 attendees, who enjoyed meeting someone new over the shared meal. The "speed-friending" event was modified for this COVID-19 era, as students – masked, except while dining – remained with one person for the duration rather than rotating through the dining unit. In addition to conversation, both in-person and with an online option, the evening provided information on joining WEB and having a say in Penn College events.
