Bethel To Host Let’s Make a Deal for Third Non­con­sec­u­tive Year

MISHAWAKA—Af­ter be­ing can­celled last year due to the COVID-19 lock­down, Let’s Make a Deal is re­turn­ing to Bethel’s cam­pus. It will oc­cur on March 12 be­gin­ning at 7 p.m. in Gates Gym­na­sium. 

Let’s Make a Deal is an op­por­tu­nity for cur­rent stu­dents and ad­mit­ted stu­dents to gather and get to know each other. In years past, ad­mit­ted stu­dents would stay overnight on cam­pus, though that will not be hap­pen­ing this year due to cur­rent COVID-19 guide­lines and pre­cau­tions. 

The host of Let’s Make a Deal will be none other than the pro­fes­sor who has be­come syn­ony­mous with the event over the years, Keith Koteskey, M. Div. He is ex­cited to re­sume his role and is look­ing for­ward to see­ing the spon­ta­neous com­edy of the stu­dents again this year. He loves when stu­dents are will­ing to be silly and have a fun time, and this event promises to be silly. 

“Cos­tumes are en­cour­aged.” Koteskey said.  

He en­cour­ages cos­tumes as much as he likes hav­ing a cos­tume for him­self for the event. The event is based off the 70’s TV show of the same name, and Koteskey did re­search to em­u­late the style of the show. He even vis­ited two Good­wills and a Sal­va­tion Army to find his out­fit for the event. 

The first 25 stu­dents to ar­rive at the event will re­ceive a free t-shirt, and all at­ten­dees will re­ceive a coupon for a free value bas­ket from Cul­ver’s.
