After an unexpected long weekend, Vandals are back on campus for the final week of classes before Thanksgiving break. With only a few days left before break it can be hard to find the motivation to carry on at his point in the semester, so taking a study break to try something new or spend time with friends might be just the fix. Check out these exciting activities and events happening in Moscow this week!
