MC Video 8 of 11.
There are no 24 hour libraries on the UIUC campus. At 2:30am, shortly before Grainger Library closes, a threatening message is played on the library intercom. So this MC act was based on the question: "What would happen if a student stayed past 3am at Grainger Library?"
UIUC's India Night is one of the largest Indian cultural events in the Midwest and consists of dances, songs, and skits. The show is produced entirely by the Indian Student Association of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. India Night 2006 took place on April 29, 2006 at Assembly Hall in Champaign, IL in front of over 2,000 audience members. The theme of India Night 2006 was "Pardes Mein Des" - "Bringing India Home."

Honestly, I was quite disappointed when I found out UIUC didn't have a 24hr library. If Ohio State an OK engineering school has a 24 hr library, a school with UIUCs caliber Eng prog should. At least for us procrastinators. ;)
