Several of Holly Pointe’s CAs and other students gathered Thursday night for a relaxed jam-session in one of the dorm’s conference rooms. Students brought audio equipment, guitars, keyboards, and even a box drum for a couple of hours of improvised yet coordinated music.
“We had a ton of fun,” Arriola said. “We didn’t expect that many people because it’s freezing out, but we love bringing people that are passionate about music, and hopefully we can get to do this again.”
