MARSHALL NEWS MESSENGER (10/6/15) - East Texas Baptist University students and faculty ducked, dipped, dived and dashed but could not dodge the dust during the Centennial Hall second annual 2K in Color Run/Walk on Monday.

The race snaked around the central section of campus, with volunteers waiting at checkpoints ready to sufficiently douse runners in a rainbow of neon-colored dust.

At the end of the race, participants gathered in front of Centennial Hall and unleashed a "color bomb," tossing dust high up in the air and creating a smoky haze.
