AMHERST – The University of Massachusetts held a winter celebration, “Fire & Ice”, on Thursday to welcome students back for the spring semester. The event featured ice skating at the Mullins Center practice rink and outdoor games, horse-drawn wagon rides and ten individual fire pits (marshmallows, chocolate and graham crackers provided) spaced around the shoreline of Campus Pond. The affair was hosted by Student Affairs & Campus Life which also had help from several other entities including Campus Recreation and UMass Police.
