Exciting Science Night at Misericordia University Captivates Families

A Night of Science and Fun

In Dallas, PA, Misericordia University recently hosted its vibrant “Boom in the Night” event, drawing in families for an evening of scientific wonder on October 23. Organized by the Dead Alchemist Society, the university’s chemistry club, the event transformed the campus into a lively hub of interactive science activities.

Interactive Science Stations

Attendees, both young and old, engaged with various hands-on science stations. Activities included crafting slime, creating color-changing potions, and witnessing the famous “puking pumpkins” – a demonstration that delighted the crowd with its foamy spectacle.

Engaging and Educational

The event aimed to make science accessible and enjoyable. Faculty from the Chemistry and Biochemistry Department collaborated with students to design experiments that were both educational and entertaining.

Students from the College of Arts and Sciences led the activities, ensuring safety and encouraging participation. The evening was filled with Halloween-themed music, glowing decorations, and treats, creating a festive learning environment.

A Community Favorite

This year’s “Boom in the Night” saw a record number of attendees, including local families, school groups, and alumni. The event’s success is attributed to the enthusiastic involvement of students and the unwavering support from Misericordia’s faculty and staff.

Open to the public and free of charge, this beloved fall tradition continues to be a highlight for the Back Mountain community. Plans are already in motion for next year’s celebration, promising even more excitement and discovery.
