Hundreds of students assembled at the Armory last night for That 70s Hanukkah Party and to attempt to break the world record for the most dreidels spun simultaneously. The nearly 400 participants failed to break the University of Michigan's record of 610 dreidels. In addition to the world record attempt, various Jewish student groups, including Koach and the Jewish Student Union, set up booths with activities ranging from balloon-shaving competitions to blow art.
