Muskingum officially kicked off the 2020 holiday season on campus during the University’s annual “Celebration of Light” on Monday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. The virtual ceremony, aired on Orbit Media’s WMCO 90.7 radio, featured remarks from President Hasseler and Chaplain Julia Wright, and a poetry reading by Dr. Jane Varley, Professor of English and Chair of the Arts and Humanities Division.

At first glance, a campus pantry might seem like a quiet corner of university life—shelves stocked, doors open, help offered without fanfare. But at Muskingum, the campus pantries – collectively known as The Tackle Box - represent something much larger: a shared commitment to meeting students where they are, ensuring that no one has to choose between their education and their basic needs.
