GSU recently hosted its’ first-ever talent show, GSU’s Got Talent. Performers, many of whom were comedians and singers, competed for the chance to perform at the Chicago Live! show at the Center for Performing Arts on November 1.
The winner of GSU’s Got Talent was College of Arts and Sciences student Audrey LaBranche. LaBranche, who goes by her stage name, “Audrey Cher”, sang the song Love You, an original composition she had written two years ago. LaBranche is a math and biology major at GSU, having returned to school as an adult. Although she owns a small business, LaBranche felt the need to return to school in order to show her children the importance of having an education. She wants her children, as well as other individuals, to see that she can finish what she started many years ago.
Many attendees of GSU’s Got Talent also were able to attend GSU’s annual Halloween Harvest. Many parents brought their children, who were able to partake in fun activities such as face painting, laser tag, and the haunted train ride.
