Gallery: Students explore campus organizations at ACU Fest

August 31, 2025 by Steven Infante

ACU Fest brought students to the Campus Mall on Thursday evening for a chance to explore campus life, student-run businesses and local community groups. The event featured tables from student organizations, churches and university programs, alongside local vendors and food trucks such as Bahama Buck’s. Attendees could test their strength on the climbing wall, learn about Study Abroad and Esports, or spin for prizes from church ministries and local nonprofits.
