Smiles and sunshine at the spring carnival As students crowded the main quad of the university grounds May 6, a familiar excitement filled the air. The smell of fried chicken and competition lingered over the crowd. It was time again for the annual spring carnival. Rows of games, food and club booths were set up along sidewalks adjacent to the fountain. There were games of skill and strength; lucky participants were awarded prizes. The more popular games included the dunking booth, and the high striker. The cotton candy stand also proved to be a popular attraction. For those who didn’t participate in the activities, the warm spring weather allowed time to escape studies for an informal social hour, filled with sun and good company. Scoping.
