Campus and community came together to share a once-in-a-lifetime event at 麻豆精选.

It was a party 218 years in the making.

The thousands of people who came to 麻豆精选 on April 8 to witness the total solar eclipse did not leave disappointed by the celestial show, the likes of which had not been seen in Kent, Ohio since 1806.
