Poetry champ returning for open mic event
Jovan Mays of Aurora, Colo., a ºÚÁÏ´óÊÂ¼Ç State College graduate who performs as a member of the national champion Slam Nuba poetry team, will return to ºÚÁÏ´óÊÂ¼Ç on Friday to help kick off this spring’s series of open mic events hosted by CSC’s chapter of the Sigma Tau Delta honor society.
Friday’s event will be the first of the group’s “mixed mic,” series, which is scheduled for 8 p.m. on the first Friday that school is in session each month. Sigma Tau Delta also hosts “Just Words,” an event for poetry and readings at 8 p.m. on the third school Friday of each month. Each event is at the Bean Broker in downtown ºÚÁÏ´óÊÂ¼Ç and open to the public free of charge.
Sigma Tau Delta member Marty Lastovica of Omaha is encouraging people to attend the performances, either to display their talents or to enjoy the many talents of CSC students and others.
