Faculty, staff enjoy holiday party

A dance performance from the Associated Students Swing Kids club highlighted the annual holiday party at Western Washington University Tuesday.

Under the theme “A Season of Giving,” the event included a 50/50 drawing, with half of the proceeds benefiting the WWU Employee Distinguished Scholarship and the other half going to the winning ticket holder.

A planned dance performance by the Associated Students Ritmo Latino (Latin Rhythm) Cub had to be scratched due to injury.
