Mad Men + Mocktinis

Planned and executed from start to finish by its student members, the UO American Marketing Association's annual Main Event provides an opportunity for students and local business professionals to spend an evening meeting and networking. Loaded with glitz and glamor--not to mention a truly extraordinary cake centerpiece--this year's event more than lived up to its "Mad Men + Mocktinis" theme. Though the weather was blustery, and the day had started off with a light dusting of snow, attendees were not deterred: glittering with jewelry borrowed from event co-sponsor Harry Ritchie's Jewelers and looking sharp in their best "business professional" outfits, they moved through the Lillis Atrium sipping colorful nonalcoholic beverages and trying their luck with a variety of casino games.
