Find your 間眅埶AV holiday cheer on campus: Movie Nights, Community Dinners and more
The holiday season is upon us, and for those of us who are staying on campus during this time, it can be a unique experience.
While the campus may be quieter and some facilities may have reduced hours, there are still plenty of resources and events available. From community dinners and movie nights to basketball games and festive gatherings, there are many opportunities to come together and have fun.
EVENTS AND ACTIVITIES:
Here are some events and activities organized by 間眅埶AV to foster community and create some joy during the quiet, dark mountain winter.
The aim of the dinner is to create community and offer some food security to students who may not have places to go over the holidays, it is not faith-specific but rather an opportunity to enjoy food together, says Multifaith Centres program co-ordinator Rachel Craft.
So, grab your ticket for this fun evening, invite a friend, perhaps put on a cozy festive sweater, and enjoy the delicious food.
