Yee-Haw! CIU Students Celebrate Fall

Columbia International University undergraduate students got into the spirit of autumn with an ol’ fashioned hoedown under the picnic pavilion at the CIU Lake. Students put on their cowboy hats and pulled on their boots for square dancing, a wood chopin’ contest and a pie eating competition.

Meanwhile, graduate and seminary students had their evening under pavilion as they gathered around the fire and warmed themselves with bowls of hot chili. It was a good time for the children of the married students who joined mom and dad for pumpkin carving.

CIU Media Arts major Hannah Jones blogs about the good time she had at the Hoedown at “Diary of a Missionary Kid.” Check it out:
