FAQs
PAC puts on a wide variety of events throughout the year, including carnivals, concerts, tailgates, murder mystery’s, halloween themed events, cultural events, dances, and so on. If you have any ideas for an event, feel free to pitch it to us!
Most PAC events are FREE to students! When we do trips or discounted tickets to local attractions, those tickets typically have costs. However, we try to keep these costs very low.
It depends on the event! PAC hosts events for Mason students as a whole. Certain events may have the option to include a guest, but it’s best to check the details for the event in Mason 360 before deciding to bring along a guest.
Always! Want to make sure you are a student, so we check in all attendees for PAC events through the Mason 360. We expect everyone to come with their Mason ID, whether it’s your ID card or your mobile ID.
It is strongly recommended that you have the app downloaded on your phone to speed up the check-in process at events.
Yes! Any Mason student that’s interested can join PAC as a Street Team member. Click the Join PAC! tab for more info on how to join.
Street Team is the volunteer general body of PAC who help staff and execute PAC events, as well as provide valuable insight during planning and preparation. Any mason student can be a Street Team member, and our events would not be possible without them!
PAC works with the Associate Director of Campus Events to determine the Mason Day Headliner, Homecoming Headliner, and other large-scale shows on campus sponsored by Student Involvement. We consider budget, availability, event spaces available, and other factors when choosing headliners.
