Digital meets Contempary The wai-kun is no longer printed material. Which for a yearbookie, such as myself, breaks my heart. However, this allows more creative freedom that can be updated at any moment. So I present the first online, digital only Wai-kun. It s a mixture of retro digital geometrics and comtempary colors and design. Enjoy! Loren & Matt & Shelby 2 3

MSU-Burns Fantasy of Lights What started as a few lights lining some of a few MSU buildings, has now become a display of over 30 brightlylit attractions. After the passing of Mr. and Mrs. Burns, their collection of Christmas decorations were donated to MSU so that their holiday spirit could live on. Visiting of the Fantasy of Lights is now a standing tradition for many families in the surrounding communities. After 34 years, on the MSU campus, funding for the lights maintenance and upkeep is still being funded by the donations of generous citizens. 14 15
