The University Involvement is vital to campus traditions here at JWU. UIB plans an abundance of different events on campus, Winter Week being one of them.
What is Winter Week?
Winter Week is one of the 3 Major Weeks UIB puts on. Major Week meaning that there is some sort of event every single day of that week. There is a Major Week for every trimester. Fall trimester was Freak Week (around Halloween), Winter trimester is Winter Week, and Spring trimester is Spring Week (leads up to Wildcat Wahoo).
What events are being held during Winter Week?
