    M2AP Board

The M2AP Board is a student organization designed to assist the Office of Campus Activities with the implementation of campus events. The group is student run and student focused. Past programs include such things as Family & Friends Weekend, Jell-o Wars, Freaker’s Ball, Winter Carnival, Movie Nights (on and off campus), craft nights, Game Night, Vegas Night and tons of musicians, comedians and poets.

The M2AP Board's mission is to organize and implement activities and programs that encompass areas such as education, cultural diversity, entertainment, health and social interaction. These events and activities should be fun and be geared towards the entire Mount Mercy community, which includes all students (traditional, non-traditional and commuter), faculty and staff. These events will comply with Mount Mercy policy, state and federal laws and will comply with budgetary limitations. Events will be scheduled with regard to the Mount Mercy calendar and other campus activities.
