One of those events, which was slated to take place on campus for the third straight year in April, was the Plaidvocates Chopped-Style Cook-Off. With everyone now away from campus, the plan needed to change and the Plaidvocates and student-athletes were up to the task.

As dedicated servants of wellness, the group applauds and wholly supports the University for making these difficult decisions to protect the health and safety of the campus and community and contribute towards stopping the spread of the Covid-19 virus worldwide.
