3115 W. Sixth, Lawrence, KS, United States, 66049
Cost: $5

There’s plenty of trivia in Lawrence throughout the course of a week, most notably SmackDown! hosted every Sunday at the Bottleneck, 737 Mass. But there is another weekly trivia party that, while lesser known, is host to some truly adamant, take-no-prisoners trivia lovers. Conroy’s trivia, hosted at the pub of the same name, 3115 W. Sixth, features a great blend of offbeat questions that span pop culture, history, politics, biology and pretty much anything else host Tom Conroy can come up with. It costs $5 to play and is open to all ages, but bring your A game because the learning curve’s steep and the teams take their questions gravely serious.

This KU group is open to the public every Tuesday for beginning lessons 8-8:45pm and open social dancing till 11. We dance a variety of dance styles: from East Coast and Lindy Hop to Hizzop Lindy and Balboa.

Not a student? Don’t have a partner? Not an issue! We’re open to everyone and you don’t need a partner! Special shoes are not needed – just something you can spin in (flip flops don’t work).

We will be in the Kansas Room (6th floor) unless the Union has a conflicting event, then we’ll be a the ECM. Join us afterwards for coffee – location to be announced at the dance. If you’d like more info on swing dance, links or want to check that we’re not snowed out, check out: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/kuswingsociety.

The first Tuesday of the month is Boys Night Out, when guys get in half price. Special lessons for intermediate to advanced dancers will be offered throughout the year.

Alternative Breaks

Alternative Summer Breaks Application – Due March 2

Start: February 20, 2012
Venue: Alternative Breaks
Cost: $225-$275

Applications for Alternative Summer Breaks are due today!

Alternative Summer Breaks offer a more intensive immersion in non-profit based service learning. Participants are assembled in groups of seven to ten, including two student site leaders, and travel to sites where they will learn and volunteer for the week. Groups often stay in churches, community centers, or synagogues and cooperatively cook their meals. The longer length of the break allows participants to travel to sites on the coasts and all over the nation, learn even more about the diverse and complex issues facing the nation, and develop meaningful relationships with their groups. Breakers select from a wide range of issues and organizations on their application. These issues include public health, the environment, education, homelessness, human rights, economic and social inequality, animal rescue, the arts and more.

Alternative Summer Break applications are due on Friday, March 2, 2012, and interviews will take place on Monday, March 5 and Tuesday, March 6, 2012.
