Social-Ice kicks off in Rochester This weekend, Peace Plaza in Rochester is being turned into an after-dark playground as Social-Ice gets underway.

Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., a leader whose dream of equality, justice, and unity continues to inspire generations.

His courage and determination remind us of the importance of standing together to create a world where everyone is treated with dignity and respect.

Let’s reflect on this not just today, but every day. 💜

As the year winds down, please note that the WSU-R Student & Campus Services office will be closed on December 24–26 and January 1.

We hope this season brings you rest, connection, and a chance to recharge. We’ll see you soon!
