Washburn hosts Thanksgiving buffet on campus (Edit)

With the holiday season right around the corner, there are a lot of different events that will unveil as the season progresses. The first event that was held on campus was the Thanksgiving buffet. This was on Wednesday, Nov. 18. The purpose of the buffet was for everyone to celebrate Thanksgiving on campus before Thanksgiving break.
“The buffet was really worth the money, and was the best food I have ever had at Washburn,” said Logan Runnebaum, freshman nursing major.
The buffet was $10 at the door or $9 in advance. The target audience for the event was all students, faculty and staff. The food provided was the traditional style Thanksgiving feast. Some of the food included was, turkey, ham, potatoes and cream corn. For dessert, there were a variety of  different kinds of pie. The pumpkin pie was everyone's favorite portion.
The buffet was a great hit with all of the students, faculty and staff that attended. There was an abundance of people who were in attendance. It is the best buffet that Washburn offers all year; all of the seats were full from the start to the end of the buffet. 
“I always miss the buffet and really wish I could have attended it,” said David Cox, senior mass media major.
Thanksgiving break starts Wednesday, Nov. 25, and class resumes Monday, Nov. 30. With holiday cooking and black Friday shopping coming up, it is nice to be able to go eat at the buffet without actually having to make it.
With the buffet having such a great turn out, I think that it would be beneficial for Washburn to do more buffets like this in the future. I think something that would greatly benefit WU is to have a different buffet every month. It would appeal to a diverse group of students; therefore, keeping more people on campus. This venue would make students feel as though they are getting their money worth, all while being able to enjoy a nice buffet once a month. This would be a great outlet and resource for Washburn to look into having in the near future.

  1. The only thing I see is "Black Friday" Not sure if the B should be cap or not. I know its a specific Friday, therefore I think it may need to be....but not sure, and of course it's no where in that fabulous book we paid $383848 for. #winning

  2. This story is very hard to read. It would be easier to read if you put spaces in between the paragraphs so it didn't look like one big massive chunk of text.

  3. Great edit! I noticed you adjusted the part about ticket prices. The only thing I would suggest would be to indent paragraphs so it breaks up the text a little. Otherwise, well done!

  4. All the edits that were made really really helped! Nice work! I do agree with Kara in that there needs to be divisions between the paragraphs so that the reader doesn't have such a difficult time reading through the story.
