🎟️ IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT’S TIME! 🎟️

Today is DAY 1 of the SoDAA Rally-Q Raffle! 🎉

For everyone who entered their passport, I’ll be drawing names on the hour starting at 1 PM today! Winners will be announced on our Instagram Story AND via email.

⚠️ HERE’S THE DEAL:
It’s first come, first pick! If your name gets drawn, you have ONE HOUR to make your way to my office and claim your prize before the next name is drawn.

Can’t make it in time? No worries! Your name stays in the pool for one week, and if your prize hasn’t been claimed, we’ll redraw a new name. Just keep in mind that the longer you wait, the slimmer the pickings! 👀

Good luck to everyone who entered their passport into the Rally-Q! 🥳 We’ll be drawing winners today, September 9, and tomorrow, September 10, so keep those eyes peeled on our Stories and keep checking your inbox!

We know some of you may not be able to get here in time so message this account if you cannot make it in time, we will check the inbox before every drawing!

LET’S GET THIS RAFFLE ROLLING! 🎟️🔥

And of course, we have to show some love to the hands that made all of this possible — the Burger Boyz and the Rockstars! 🤘🍔

None of this would have happened without all the hard work, planning, and behind-the-scenes magic that went into making the day come together. A huge shoutout to these folks!

Not pictured is one of the most instrumental people in the whole operation, our guy Wyatt! Somehow, that darn social media guy didn’t manage to get a picture of him. 😂

So give these folks some high fives and a round of applause. 👏

What a treat it was to see waves of students connecting with so many of our wonderful student-led clubs after the Rally-Q! Nothing but love for the student groups who ran these tables, opened their doors, and welcomed the next generation into their chapters. Way to keep it rolling, y’all! 👏

Friendships can form in the crucible of the studio, but they can really flourish through extracurriculars like these. It was awesome to see so many of you broadening your horizons, meeting new people, and finding your place beyond the classroom.

What an awesome day! Sometimes, as staff and faculty, we get so comfortable in this incredibly supportive community that it takes a day like this to really remind us just how special SoDAA is.

Y’all made it amazing. ❤️

And this is only the first photo dump—there’s plenty more to come! But for now, all we can say is thank you to our awesome student clubs, hardworking staff, and incredible students who helped make today what it was.

A special thank you as well to our University President for stopping by, spending some time with us, and getting to know our SoDAA community a little better. We loved having you here!

What a way to kick things off!

One of our favorite annual events!

The 2026 Streetlight Gallery features 30 artworks by 23 NDSU students, transforming downtown Fargo streetlights into a public gallery.

The annual collaboration between NDSU and downtown Fargo gives student artists a chance to share their creativity with the community and gives all of us something new to discover as we explore downtown!

Look for the artwork along Broadway and 8th Street in down Fargo. Read the full story from the Forum: https://bit.ly/4xxD4fh

🎉 IT’S BACK!!! 🎉

The SoDAA Rally-Q Passport is back for another year! 🥳

What started last year as a fun new tradition is back to connect students with student groups, faculty, staff, and the creative community that makes SoDAA special.

And this year, the prizes are looking AMAZING! 🎨✨ Our talented art faculty, staff, and resident artists have generously donated original works of art for the raffle.

The more donations we receive, the more prizes we can give away—which means better odds that any given passport could be a winner! 🎟️🏆

🤔 HOW DOES IT WORK?

📖 1. Get your passport!
At the Rally-Q, stop by and grab your SoDAA Rally-Q Passport. And yes, it’s a single sheet of paper—not the fancy mock-up pictured above. 😂

👋 2. Visit the student group tables!
Stop by each student group’s table and collect a stamp. But don’t just speed-run the stamps! I encourage you to actually see what these clubs are about. Ask questions, meet people, and maybe you’ll find your people. 💛

🎟️ 3. Collect ALL the stamps!
Once you’ve visited every student group and filled your passport with stamps, complete the information on the back.

📬 4. Turn it in!
Drop off your completed passport so you can be entered into the raffle!

🏆 5. Wait for the drawing!
We’ll hold the drawing on September 9 and September 10—whenever our darn social media manager gets a chance. 😂

📧 6. Check your email!
If you’re a winner, you’ll be notified by email. Winners will have one week to claim their prize.

🎨 BUT HERE’S THE FUN PART:
Prizes are first come, first pick! So while you have a week to claim your prize, I highly recommend getting to it ASAP. The earlier you claim it, the more choices you’ll have!

So grab your passport, rally around our student groups, explore what SoDAA has to offer, and maybe go home with an original work of art!

Ready, set, RALLY-Q! 🚀🎨
