Student-Run D&D Night at BYU-Idaho Listed on Campus Calendar

The BYU‑Idaho campus calendar showed a listing titled "Game Night featuring Dungeons & Dragons" for February 26, 2026, scheduled from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM in the Grand Ballroom; the listing "positioned the event as a weekly activity open to the campus community and indicated the evening would include multiple tables," according to the calendar capture. That single-date entry appears alongside recurring descriptions of Game Night elsewhere on campus materials.

BYU‑Idaho’s official Game Night page describes the regular event as a weekly offering: "Game Night is every Thursday from 7-10 on the 2nd floor of the MC. With a wide variety from Dungeons and Dragons, Chess, Switch games, and so much more! Game Night has something for everyone!" The page also lists Event Services as a contact point at 230 Manwaring Center with phone (208) 496‑3150, provides a Call or Text line at 208‑496‑1411, and includes the email ask@byui.edu and a WhatsApp contact channel in the page capture.

The Scroll student newspaper piece by Collin Prisbrey, published March 6, 2024, documents the student-run nature of the nights and names a Dungeon Master. The article quotes Matthew Jensen, identified as an avid D&D player and "one of the Dungeon Masters (DMs)," saying: "For me, it's being very creative as well as sharing it with everyone who comes across." Prisbrey's story also records scheduling logistics as of 2024: "Game Night happens every Thursday from 7-10 p.m., and D&D is from 6-6:30 p.m. to allow for set up and to help facility services as shifting the tables takes extra time at the end." The Scroll piece points readers to the I‑Belong app for more information and notes a full interview is available on The Scroll or YouTube.

The three sources present explicit discrepancies on venue and time. The campus calendar entry for Feb. 26, 2026 lists Grand Ballroom and a 6:00 PM–10:00 PM span, while the Game Night page lists the 2nd floor of the Manwaring Center and a 7–10 p.m. recurrence. The Scroll article connects the early D&D slot to setup needs but does not address the Grand Ballroom listing. None of the captured materials explain whether the Feb. 26 Grand Ballroom entry represented a one-off relocation or an updated regular schedule.

Event Services information is available in the official capture for verification and scheduling questions: Event Services, 230 Manwaring Center, (208) 496‑3150; Call or Text 208‑496‑1411; ask@byui.edu; WhatsApp. For historical context, the Scroll article by Collin Prisbrey is dated March 6, 2024 and includes the Matthew Jensen interview and the setup rationale quoted above.

Whether listed in the Grand Ballroom for Feb. 26, 2026 or typically hosted on the 2nd floor of the MC, BYU‑Idaho's Game Night and student-run Dungeons & Dragons sessions remain described across campus materials as a weekly, multi-table social gaming program that combines storytelling and logistical coordination with facility services.
