Southern Illinois University Edwardsville hosted its second annual Spring Cougar Fest on Tuesday.
Hundreds of SIUE students, staff and faculty enjoyed a fair that combined area merchants and volunteer organizations, said Michelle Welter, associate director of the Kimmel Student Involvement Center.
More than 60 businesses and non-profits were on display at Cougar Fest.
Southern Illinois University Edwardsville provides students with a high quality, affordable education that prepares them for successful careers and lives of purpose. Built on the foundation of a broad-based liberal education, and enhanced by hands-on research and real-world experiences, the academic preparation SIUE students receive equips them to thrive in the global marketplace and make our communities better places to live. Situated on 2,660 acres of beautiful woodland atop the bluffs overlooking the natural beauty of the Mississippi River’s rich bottomland and only a short drive from downtown St. Louis, the SIUE campus is home to a diverse student body of nearly 14,000.
