PFW’s Velez helps walk area newsrooms through Mastodons Big Night

A little morning rain couldn’t dampen the spirit of around 1,000 people, including a few members of local media, who enjoyed all the action at Mastodons Big Night on Friday. The annual carnival extravaganza on the campus of Purdue University Fort Wayne was a big hit with students, faculty, and staff who relaxed alongside family, friends, and members of the general public.  

James Velez, director of Student Life, took some time before and during the event to describe all the action. See the news coverage via the links provided below.
