Students looking to get in the limelight can find it tonight on stage in the Live Oak Lounge. Everything from acoustic music to comedy acts are being showcased at this year’s Open Mic Night series sponsored by the Student Activities Board and Campus Life.
“We usually have a full two hours of open mic acts around 10 minutes each, and over 120 students in the Live Oak Lounge in the audience,” said Student Activities Board Chairman Randall Head.
Open to the public and offering a fresh source of entertainment, the Open Mic Night has drawn an audience since the series debuted a year and a half ago, Head said.
Pre-nursing sophomore Kirby Lake said she thinks it would be interesting to watch her fellow students perform.
“I think it would be cool to see other student’s talents, but I hadn’t heard of it at all,” Lake said. “For people who want to get up on stage, this is exactly what they venues.”
The event will be tonight in the Live Oak Lounge at the Student Union from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.
