The Student Activities Board will host its next event, Bops and Boba, on Tuesday Oct. 17 in the Mauck Solarium. 

The event will take place from 7-9 p.m. The Student Activities Board will provide two types of boba tea, one with traditional tapioca pearls and one with popping boba, in addition to music for students to enjoy before the start of fall break. The boba will be free of charge for all student attendees. 

“Bops and Boba is such a laid back and relaxed event,” senior and SAB team member Gabby Lewis said. “We want it to be something fun and enjoyable where students can meet up with friends to grab a treat.”

SAB encourages everyone to bring friends and to use this event as an opportunity for a much deserved study break. 

“This could be a pick-me-up for studying, or friend groups can make an experience out of it,” Lewis said. 

The event will kick off the fall break, which begins the following day after classes finish. For students who have not explored Mauck yet, SAB board members said it is a unique spot on campus with notable history. The spacious solarium was recently renovated and is decorated in a 1920s style. 

“The solarium is a very beautiful and historic space on campus, so it gives everyone a reason to check it out,” sophomore and SAB promo team member Daniel Doyle said. “Also free boba is an opportunity you simply cannot pass up.”
