Small Event Makes the Big Difference

By Daniel Adney
   Small Event is a campus-wide community service event. It not only helped the Physical Plant workers with their tremendous duty of keeping this campus clean, but it made campus more appealing to potential students. The volunteers helped these workers with duties that would take them weeks to do alone. 
   This year the Small Event had a bitter sweet meaning behind it. It was Sept. 11. 
           “It was planned on this day to serve as a remembrance to the events that occurred on this date 9 years ago,” said Johnny Moyer, the vice president of the Northeastern Student Government Association. “But it was also planned in celebration of the home opener for our RiverHawk’s football team.”
The event began at 9 a.m., lunch and T-shirts were provided for all volunteers. Most sororities and fraternities were in attendance along with multiple other organizations on campus.  
   NSGA and the Small Event committee had a tailgate party before the game that evening.
