As a member of the practice squad for the Green Bay Packers, Chris Campbell ex '09 is now the proud owner of a Super Bowl championship ring.

Campbell started his college career as a walk-on for the EIU Panthers, but by his senior year, he'd earned a starting spot. His hard work continues to pay off -- he recently signed on for another year with the Super Bowl champions.

The Alumni Association dropped 800 pairs of flip-flops throughout the South Quad Monday morning. The flip-flops were free for any student to take.

Chelsea Frederick, the assistant director of Alumni Services, said the association chose to leave the flip-flops to help students become aware of the association before they graduate.

"It was our way of saying have a fun and safe spring break," Frederick said.
