Snow Week
Snow Week is a Homecoming-like week. It is a celebration of Blue Devil spirit during January/February. The celebrations feature performances from student bands and dance groups. A Snow Week king and queen are crowned. Either gender can be crowned as king or queen because the school is promoting gender-equality.

Famous quotes containing the words snow and/or week:
“Physical force has no value, where there is nothing else. Snow in snow-banks, fire in volcanoes and solfataras is cheap. The luxury of ice is in tropical countries, and midsummer days. The luxury of fire is, to have a little on our hearth; and of electricity, not the volleys of the charged cloud, but the manageable stream on the battery-wires. So of spirit, or energy; the rests or remains of it in the civil and moral man, are worth all the cannibals in the Pacific.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Better see rightly on a pound a week than squint on a million.”
—George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
