Part-time students organization welcomes members and guests to campus

Melissa Woods won a voucher for free tuition, but she wasn’t the only winner at a barbecue held Friday by the Organization of Part-time University Students. With free welcome packages for members and free food for all attendees, everyone was a winner at the 12th annual event.

More than 300 students, faculty and staff members enjoyed the festivities, which featured a meal catered by the University’s Food Services and music by DJ Shauhrat Gill of PanjAab Entertainment.

The barbecue is a welcome for part-time students, said vice-president Anthony Meloche, who thanked sponsors for their support.
