CatFest once again plagued by rain

For the second time in three years, Wildcat Welcome's CatFest was cut short due to threatening weather.

CatFest is an annual ASUA-sponsored event that is the culmination of a 10-day long Wildcat Welcome week created to orient new students to campus life.

The popular punk band Blink 182 was to perform a free concert on the mall in 1998 when monsoon weather caused the sudden cancellation of the show.

This year, Rising Star brought Sister Hazel to campus, hoping not to repeat the rainy scenario from two years ago. However, seasonal storms and heavy lightening caused the temporary cancellation of the concert.
