This past Thursday was filled with excitement at SJSU! The Salsa Club burned up the makeshift dance floor in the Campus Village quad! Members of the club taught a free Salsa lesson then there was an hour of free dancing to sizzling salsa, cha-cha, and bachata music. At 9:00pm the SJSU Salsa Club team performed followed by numerous individual/pair performances. The SJSU community wishes all of the dancers luck at the upcoming San Francisco Salsa Congress!
At the other end of campus, more than 50 students camped out on the grass in front of the Tommie Smith and John Carlos statue. This year's 5th annual Poverty Under the Stars event focused on the great recession and the current economic status for many Americans: jobless and homeless. "The event featured vaious speakers, a video about real-life instances of homelessness, entertianment, and the main event, which was simply camping outside and understanding what it's like to be without the comfort of a warm home" (from Jordan Liffengren's Spartan Daily story, read the whole article at SJSU hosts fifth annual 'Poverty Under the Stars' to bring to light issues caused by the Great Recession).
