On Friday, Janurary 29, Alpha Phi Omega and Lens and Lights brought the fourth annual Dance-A-Thon to the WPI campus. Students from Smith and UMass joined those from WPI in Alden Hall from 8pm until 1am for a night of high energy dancing and fun. Through the event, over $300 was raised for the Worcester Battered Women's Shelter.
Attendance at this year's event was down from previous year's, but students who did come had a great time anyway. Tunes were mixed by WPI's own DJs Pegasus and Slee. The crowd heard hits from their junior high school days, popular dance music of the 90's, and some new releases from Europe.
This year's Dance-A-Thon was sponsored by the Student Activities Office, Healthy Alternatives, Residential Services, BJ's Wholesale Club, Wal-Mart, The Boynton, Spag's, East Side Mario's, The Sahara, Shaw's, Torrilla Sam's, and Tech Pizza. APO would like to thank everyone who supported the DAT by sponsorship or attendance.
