Bethel Com­muters Make Se­mes­ter Plans 

MISHAWAKA– On Fri­day, Jan. 27, Im­pact Min­istries col­lab­o­rated with Com­muter Life to host the first com­muter game night of the spring se­mes­ter. The game nights typ­i­cally oc­cur the last Fri­day of every month and are a way to en­gage the com­muters of the Bethel com­mu­nity. The event was de­scribed by Com­muter As­sis­tant Kadie Sue Mar­tin as be­ing very come-and-go. 

The game nights be­gin at 6:30 p.m. and kick off with din­ner, fol­lowed by var­i­ous board, card, and video games for the re­main­der of the night. The crowd is usu­ally around thirty, in­clud­ing com­muters and res­i­den­tial stu­dents, as well as some stu­dents from IUSB. The event takes place at the home of Tom and Jill Car­pen­ter, who work with Im­pact Min­istries. Their ad­dress is listed on event an­nounce­ments on the Bethel Com­muter In­sta­gram page: @bu_­com­muter­life. 

For the up­com­ing se­mes­ter, Com­muter Life plans to do two events a month: the tra­di­tional game night and an­other var­ied event. They also plan to have some com­muter-spe­cific events dur­ing DUDE and BABE weeks, as well as an end-of-se­mes­ter cook­out.
