Chopsticks Night a big hit on campus

ONU's annual Chopsticks Night featured great food, entertainment and plasticware for those not accustomed to chopsticks.

Sponsored by the Asian American Student Union, the event drew a large crowd of hungry folks who, by and large, managed quite well with the wooden chopsticks.

We asked, "Why did you come to Chopstick Night," and got these replies:

• I love Asian food.
• My family uses chopsticks.
• I learned from an exchange student from South Korea my family hosted several years ago.
• Food tastes better using wood utensils instead of plastic or metal.
