Okay, so what’s the Star Party?

It’s like the College of Communication, Information, and Media (CCIM) Super Party. But for people who want to learn more about getting involved in the humanities at Ball State.

When and where?

In what way is it for introverts?

  • We will provide a beforehand and at registration
  • Every displaying organization will provide a “takeaway” sheet with info (or simply a link to your website or social media accounts).

Hmmm. What can you do with a major in the humanities?

Anything! We’ll show you.

Who is the Star Party for?
