The fall semester is back upon us, and so we return to our regular hours: Mon Noon- 9pm; Tue - Fri 10am - 9pm; Sat 1pm - 9pm (closed Sunday). Actually that's an expansion on our Saturday hours from last year, as we're now opening on Saturdays two hours earlier.

We had a great time Tuesday afternoon at the 2-Story Rock Band event! The staff of the Video & Performance Studio did a fantastic job setting up the space. In addition to the giant screen behind the performers, there were two large side screens and a monitor screen showing the game, plus two cameras projecting live feeds of the players on large screens as well. With the lighting effects and big sound, it was a Rock Band experience like no other!

Tuesday, April 20th (the last day of classes), 4-6pm. 2-Story Rock Band in the Duderstadt Center Video & Performance Studio. Play Rock Band on a giant screen!
