Man Week, dedicated to all men, worldwide.
This past week at CBU, was the first (hopefully) annual Man Week. For those of you not in the loop, let me fill you in, that meant every night of the week there is a CBU sponsored event for the men on campus.
Monday night was the kick off to the week, and it started with a huge Rockband video game tournament. Students prepared outfits and judges were set in place. Students were practicing like two months in advance for this night, I think that’s crazy! Each band was able to perform one song, and they were judged on their style, ability, and stage presence.
Tuesday night was a guys event, but the girls were also able to get involved. The men dressed up in slacks and ties in order to serve the women a classy dinner. At the dinner, there was a live band and it was a great environment. Although, I think the men went a little overboard on serving the girls, anytime they went to take a drink, the men were on it filling it back up (give the girls a little space to breathe!). But seriously, it was a great time.
On Wednesday night, there was a session called “Don’t Be a Fool”. This event consisted of a late night pancake breakfast and a guest speaker. Matt Brown, pastor of Sandals Church, took time to share with the men about the dangers of lust and how to combat sin.
Thursday was the 3 on 3 basketball tournament. The men were able to show off their skills and we had our own little March Madness Tournament of 16 teams (even though it’s April). There was music, a DJ, and even brackets to fill out. The night ended with a slam dunk contest on a (lowered) 9 foot hoop.
The best part about man week, is also the fact that it is Mustache March. This is the month where all men (or at least those who can) grow out their mustaches. I love walking around school and seeing all of the mustaches. There are strict rules and regulations because it’s a competition! On Friday, the closing ceremonies occurred. This is where the judges came out to see who would win the various mustache awards. There are the class stache, best stache, and my favorite, the trash stache. Just so you know, around the world there are mustache contests that are actually taken very seriously.
One of my residents (and good friend) looked the most ridiculous for man week, so I wanted to share his glorious mustache and hair with you.
That is a lancer logo, the lance goes across his upper lip.
