Holiday cheer abounds on college campuses

Most colleges and universities celebrate the season by bringing out their choirs for special seasonal concerts. And the next couple of weeks are filled with programs across the state as students get ready to head home for the holidays.

But if you're not already on campus, it can be hard to find out when the events are taking place.

The Minnesota Private College Council has created a handy-dandy calendar for people interested in ringing in the holidays with festive music - you can peruse it here.

The calendar lists 20 concerts on private campuses, from Bethany Lutheran College in Mankato to the College of St. Scholastica in Duluth.

Happy Holidays!
