CENTRAL MICHIGAN UNIVERSITY: Alumni engagement turns creative

S

Central Michigan University issued the following announcement on Dec. 10.

From trivia nights to Grandparents U at home, school spirit gets a virtual boost

It's '90s trivia night for CMU alumni, and the questions come fast, so stay on your toes.

Whose ear did Mike Tyson take a bite out of during a boxing match?

How many Spice Girls were in the group? What year did "Friends" premiere on NBC?

Monica takes the lead, then Jennifer steals it with a question about the Goosebumps book series.

It's a spirited alumni event, but there's no clinking of beer glasses or communal munching of chicken wings and sliders.

This gathering is virtual — just like all alumni events since the COVID-19 pandemic hit in March.

Still, there's a ton of alumni fun going on — just grab your laptop.

Trivia not your thing? How about a whiskey tasting and distillery tour on Zoom?

Interested in a Facebook group for '90s CMU grads? More than 10,000 alumni were, and the group is growing.

Even the popular Grandparents U, an event that brings more than 200 alumni and their grandchildren to campus for three days of fun each summer, was virtual. But the fun was real.
