On Friday, January 22 USD’s Center for Diversity and Community (CDC) and the Campus Activities Board (CAB) partnered to host an event for students to honor the importance of Martin Luther King Jr. day.
The CDC and CAB presented a movie displayed throughout the MUC for students, staff and faculty as well as various treats for them to enjoy while watching. The movie was also streamed online for those who still wanted to watch but did not want to attend in the MUC.
The movie presented was called “If Beale Street Could Talk,” a movie that takes place in the 1970’s and follows an African American couple whose lives are turned upside down when one is arrested for a crime they did not commit.
The Campus Activities Board (CAB) is continuing to work around the challenges that arise amidst a pandemic by creating a variety of safe and socially distanced activities for students to partake in.
Kate Solberg, junior marketing and management major and CAB president, said CAB plans to put on multiple small events for the spring semester to make up for the lack of the annual fall concert. The concert would’ve taken place this past semester. However, due to COVID-19, CAB felt it was best to avoid the large crowds that a concert would bring.
CAB has been trying to rebrand themselves, Solberg said, by doing more than just the one big event as well as by collaborating with other student organizations.
