Ugly Sweater Party 2025

On Tuesday, December 2, the Department of Political Science’s staff attended the annual President’s Faculty and Staff Holiday Party. President Kelly Damphousse and his wife Beth welcomed people from all across campus to celebrate the holiday season and the approaching end of the semester. 

The theme of the party was Ugly Sweaters, and the Department of Political Science brought their all to the contest. Administrative Assistant III Alexis Finley and Microcomputer Lab Coordinator Dmitri Meza wore their ugliest holiday sweaters and secured a second-place award for their efforts. 

Alexis said, “It was a blast. Next year we’ll be aiming for that first-place prize.” She joked that they were getting paid “one salary” for entering the contest. 

Dmitri echoed these sentiments, saying, ”I had a really fun time. It was very festive and definitely helped me get in the holiday mood! I would like to start this as a tradition – maybe next year we can get 1st place!”
