More than 600 Winona Campus students made a connection to each other and to their school that just might last a lifetime. At the first “Mugsgiving” celebration, students raised their newly acquired mugs filled with hot cocoa in a warm toast to each other and to Saint Mary’s University. The Future Alumni Committee and Office of Alumni Relations invited all undergrad students to receive special commemorative mugs, as well as enjoy an evening of games, music, and giveaways.
Organizers hope the popular event will become an annual tradition, with alumni returning to campus with their mugs each year to socialize with students. The event also serves as a unique way to welcome the freshman class to the Saint Mary’s community. Thanks go to 1967 alum Roger Haydock, who generously donated mugs for every student.
