With gum drops, candy canes, frosting and some sweet creativity, University of Wisconsin-Stout students created holiday spirit with gingerbread houses they decorated and displayed Dec. 18 in the Memorial Student Center.
A total of about a dozen houses built and decorated by students were part of the display for a contest held by Student Leadership Assistants, a University Housing organization. The group gave out 90 kits to students to decorate, a fun activity to help them take a break from finals and capture the winter holiday spirit.
The top five gingerbread houses chosen by viewers were awarded a prize.
