Watch Student group leaders discuss their organizations at Spartan Remix

The Office of Cultural and Academic Transitions (OCAT) held Spartan Remix, an annual cultural celebration on Thursday night. This event is held every year for students to embrace and learn about other cultures that are different from their own. During Spartan Remix, students were able to have fun and enjoy the music, food and freebies that were passed around. In addition, students also had the opportunity to sign up for various organizations on campus. Although it is on a smaller scale, Spartan Remix had an impact on all minority students that were in attendance, which was shown last night with the huge turn out that it had.
