Number by number, letter by letter, the commons was turned from a calm cafeteria into a bustling bingo hall on March 31. Mu Alpha Theta hosted its last fundraiser of the year in order to earn funds for their senior scholarships.


    Each year, Mu Alpha Theta gives away two scholarships to deserving seniors based off of the amount of money made from fundraisers throughout the year. Bingo night earned a total of 350 dollars, to contribute to the scholarship fund.
    “It’s really fun,” senior member Caitlin Stone said. “I like the excitement of fundraising
for good causes.”
    Bingo night was the third fundraiser of the year for Mu Alpha Theta following a successful T-shirt sale and the annual bake sale. Before the year comes to a close and scholarships are awarded, Mu Alpha Theta will elect new officers to continue the clubs involvement. The society hopes for further involvement in the future by increasing the calender of events available to members.
    “We are looking forward to doing more math competitions next year,” Mu Alpha Theta sponsor Valerie VanDerBeck said. “It’s great for building your resume by participating in an honor society for mathematics.”
    With Mu Alpha Theta accepting the changes from a new sponsor and different fundraising techniques, the club has grown even stronger with members looking to the society with a sense of pride and accomplishment.
    “It’s been a great year, everyone has worked so hard,” junior member Kaitlyn Schikore said. “I can’t wait for next year and getting my hours to graduate with an honors cord in math.”
