On Thursday, March 21st, SWIPS (Supporting Women in Political Science) and Pi Sigma Alpha hosted a bowling social event. Around 20 students attended, and the organizations were thrilled with the high turnout. The social event offered a relaxed atmosphere for members to connect through competitive bowling games and delicious food. Officers brainstormed various ideas to further engage members in upcoming projects, and members expressed a strong interest in continuing to participate in future political science events.
Zoie Sanders, a member of SWIPS, said that the event was, “super fun and a great opportunity to connect with fellow organizations and members. I had an amazing time and am looking forward to attending future social events and meetings with SWIPS.
