CSE Week - UMNTC

That’s a wrap on CSE Week 2026! We had a record-breaking 112th annual event, but all good things must come to an end, and the countdown to next year’s begins now!

We cannot thank enough all the volunteers, student groups, sponsors, performers, caterers, staff, students, and visitors who made this event possible. You’re all amazing, and we’ll see you next year!

Is it just me or is he getting slightly happier each day?

Our cardboard canoe jousting event is Monday night! Link in bio for signup!

Gophers, are you ready to ROW THE BOAT and go to battle with your friends?

Many are saying you can’t build a GREAT boat from just 10 pounds of cardboard and ONE roll of duct tape. WRONG! You will build a BEAUTIFUL boat. The best boat. Believe me.

Get a crew of up to five friends. At least one of your people will get in the water with jousting sticks, water muskets, and cannon shot for a tremendous BATTLE ROYALE. The others can stay dry on the deck. Some people don’t like the water, and that’s okay.

Your mission is to sink your rivals. We are going to ram them, we are going to tip them, and we are going to knock them into the water. It will be a total disaster for them. The winners get total GLORY. The losers get soggy.

Sign up now. Don’t be a loser:
