ENTERTAINMENT
Bronco Bash   The single most popular event that students at Western attend is Bronco Bash.  Bronco Bash occurs after the first week of Fall Semester.  At Bronco Bash, food vendors, Registered Student Organizations (RSOs), Local Businesses give away free things, or offer special deals on their goods and services.  The RSOs recruit people for their organizations.  At Bronco Bash, students can get free cups, T-shirts, phone books, pencils, pens, dry erase boards, and other trinkets.  Usually Metro Transit, Kalamazoo’s Public Transportation System hands out umbrellas.  These umbrellas can take the wear and tear of inclement weather.  However, the umbrellas only last a year.  This works out in favor of the students because every year, Bronco Bash occurs.

Miller Movie  
One or two Wednesdays a month, a Miller Movie is played at Miller Auditorium.  These movies they have been already in theaters, but are not yet out on DVD.  The movie usually starts at 9 P.M., and costs $1.00.  If you get there early enough, you will have the opportunity to get a free bag of popcorn.  If you are involved with the RSO Campus Activities Board (CAB), you get to decide what movie will be played at the Miller Movie.  However, the Metro buses are not running when the Miller Movie gets out.
           
There is another option for the ride back.  Drive Safe Kalamazoo (DSK) is a service that runs Thursday night-Saturday night.  People can call them from 11 P.M-3 A.M for a free, no questions ask ride to wherever they need to go.  Most people believe that to get a ride from DSK means that you are in no shape to drive a vehicle.  This is not the case.  People can use DSK if they do not feel like walking home in the dark. So if you take the bus into campus for the Miller Movie and you use DSK’s services on the way back, you will be saving gas in your car, as well as your car’s mileage.
