Activities Fair Sheds Light On Organizations Although rain caused the Student Activities Fair to be moved inside to the Alumni Room on Saturday, it didn't stop freshmen from flocking to find out what activities were available to them dur- ing their first year of college. The Fair, which was held outside on the union terrace the next day, lasted from 4-6 p.m. on September 12 and 13, giving students a chance to see what Wittenberg had to offer.
