Happy Friday, Jags! 🐆 Congrats on making it through your first week of the fall semester! 🎉 It's been a busy week of new classes, new faces, and a new campus. Now it's time to relax, recharge, and enjoy the weekend before we do it all again on Monday.

Cue the mixtape! 🎧📼 Join the Marx Library and the Center for Academic Excellence on Thursday, August 27, from 11:00 am – 2:00 pm, for our 2026 Week of Welcome event, “90s Rewind: The Zine Zone!”

Create your own zine (we'll show you how!) while exploring one of the original forms of independent publishing. Long before blogs, TikTok, and Instagram, zines gave artists, activists, musicians, and fan communities a way to share ideas, build movements, and create culture on their own terms.

We'll also be spinning a playlist that'll have you singing along to “I Want It That Way,” “Wannabe,” and “Basket Case” all in the same afternoon. Grab some free retro snacks, crank up your creativity, and take a break from the college grind. No dial-up required—just good vibes and a little “Smells Like Teen Spirit.”
