K-Day Registration is Open!
Attention all Registered Student Organizations! Get your dice rolling and your trivia hats on because K-Day is just around the corner, and this year, it’s all about Trivial Pursuit! Mark your calendars for September 6th and gear up for a day filled with excitement, knowledge, and endless fun.
What is K-Day, you ask? Well, it’s none other than Keweenaw Day, an annual extravaganza of student involvement held at the scenic Chassell Centennial Park. Picture this: a vibrant atmosphere buzzing with the chatter of students, delicious food wafting through the air, lively music setting the mood, and a plethora of activities to engage in. With an average turnout of 3500-4000 students, K-Day is the ultimate platform for your organization to shine and attract new members.
But here’s the twist – this year, we’re putting a spin on things with our Trivial Pursuit theme! Show off your organization’s knowledge prowess and creativity by planning an activity that aligns with the theme. Whether it’s trivia games, brain teasers, or interactive challenges, let your imagination run wild and make your booth a must-visit destination for all attendees.
Registration is open now, so don’t miss your chance to secure your spot at this epic event. Make sure to have your organization’s activity finalized before registering, as space is limited, and you won’t want to miss out. And remember, the primary contact listed during registration will be the point person for all communications, so keep an eye on your inbox throughout the summer for any updates or changes.
Got questions about K-Day? Don’t hesitate to reach out to the Student Leadership and Involvement (SLI) team at rso@mtu.edu or give us a call at 906-487-1963. We’re here to help make K-Day 2024 the best one yet!
So rally your troops, brush up on your trivia, and get ready for a day of epic proportions at K-Day: Trivial Pursuit Edition. See you there!

LeaderShape Survey
Student Leadership and Involvement (SLI) has begun the scheduling process for our LeaderShape Institute! The LeaderShape Institute engages participants in a transformative experience and inspires them to create a just, caring, and thriving world. The experience is created to provide time and space for people to have conversations that matter. In these conversations and through intentional instruction and challenge, participants have time to explore their personal values in the context of community.
This program is delivered as a 4-day immersive experience. The purpose of the program is to produce a breakthrough in the leadership capacity of participants and facilitators which is demonstrated on their campus, in their community, or within their organization. Not a typical leadership retreat, the Institute is grounded in helping individuals identify the values they hold that lead to making a difference in the communities around them.
Due to this year’s academic scheduling, we cannot hold the Institute at our regular time in January. So, SLI wants to know when you think is the best time to hold this year’s Institute! Please fill out the survey and let us know what dates work best for you. We also would appreciate your input on alternative date options that you believe might work better. Thank you for your input, and we look forward to hearing from you!
