The history club organizes game nights and movie nights throughout the academic year. Our Risk and Trivial Pursuit tournaments have been especially popular recently. On movie nights we meet to view, discuss, and critique films of historical import.
The history club also organizes trips to local museums such as the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Museum in Grand Rapids. We generally sponsor a longer trip in the spring semester such as to Chicago (photos at left) or Detroit.
A final highlight of the year is our annual Monty Python & the Holy Grail party held every winter during St. Thomas Aquinas Week in which students and faculty act out favorite scenes from the classic movie.
