BILLINGS - Students and faculty at MSUB are joining nearly 400 colleges and universities across the country Thursday night by staying Up 'til Dawn to battle cancer.

Those pulling the all-nighter will solicit donations for the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The 2012 event is the second year MSUB is taking part in Up 'til Dawn. The event has personal meaning for MSUB Housing Director, Jeff Rosenberry, who said they hope to exceed 2011's $4,500 total.

"It's pretty magical to be a part of something like this. Myself, I'm a cancer survivor for seven years now, so it's even more special for me to a part of this group and advise these young students," said Jeff Rosenberry.

Up 'til Dawn kicks off Thursday night after the Yellowjacket basketball game and is open to anyone who wants to hang out until dawn. Food and refreshments will be provided. For more information, call 406-657-2376.
