Mock Rock
Central Michigan University's fraternities and sororities competed in Mock Rock on Thursday, April 11 in McGuirk Arena. The event is part of Greek Week 2024, which is themed "Coast to Coast". Greek organizations teamed up in groups named after cities across the U.S. to perform choreographed dances in order to win points. In between the team dances, the event also featured performances from fraternities and sororities belonging to the National Pan-Hellenic Council and Multicultural Greek Council.
This year, Greek Week is raising money for the B#4 Foundation, which promotes mental health awareness and suicide prevention. The organization was created in honor of Brady Hessbrook, a Wayne State University student who took his own life in 2023. Amid the energetic dancing and loud cheering that filled McGuirk Arena, each team's performances also featured handmade signs with messages in support of the B#4 Foundation, such as "You are not alone" and "In memory of Brady Hessbrook".
