Super Bowl “Penny Poll” at Goshen College

WHAT: Goshen College Super Bowl Penny Poll

Goshen College students, faculty and staff are voting their preferences for who will win the Super Bowl — the Chicago Bears or Indianapolis Colts — by dropping pennies into big jars. They also are voting on whether they mainly plan to watch the game — or mainly the ever-popular commercials. The results of the polls will be announced Friday.

WHEN: Tuesday, Jan. 30 to Thursday, Feb. 1 (7:30 a.m.-6:30 p.m.)

WHERE: Westlawn Dining Hall, on campus.

WHY: Goshen College is committed to academic excellence and is dedicated to the development of informed, articulate, sensitive and responsible Christians. We also like to have a good time — more than enough reason to participate in this Super Bowl event.

All news media are invited and welcome to monitor the voting, as well as interview students about their picks for the Super Bowl. For directions, visit: www.goshen.edu/aboutgc/map.php.
