Every year students come together to turn Michigan Tech’s snowy campus into a wonderland of snow statues during Winter Carnival. For many years, the Audio Engineering Society (AES) has provided the soundtrack for the traditional All-nighter, bringing the energy with their signature snow speakers and a rotating cast of volunteer DJs.
Built in the center of the action on Walker Lawn between broomball courts and Husky Plaza, the snow speakers spread music across campus, livening the spirits of statue builders, volunteers, and visitors.
Hundreds of Michigan Tech undergraduates cross the threshold from college student to graduate each semester. Meet Jessica Gadbury and Riley Stichter, two biological sciences students who graduate with the Class of 2024 this month, as they share a look back at their journeys, what kept them going through challenges and obstacles, and what drives them to make the world a better place.

Vice President Jos Olson: “Do you want to pull up the found footage?”
President Vanessa Dulong: “Yes.”
Olson: “I love how we say ‘found footage’ as if it is real found ghost footage.”
Secretary Jack Summers: “It’s not?”
Dulong: “Well, it’s found in our Google Drive.”
Summers: “Are you telling me it’s not real?”
Olson: “No, it’s very real, you’re right.”
