From 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM, gorge yourselves on eggnog, hot chocolate, and cookies.  The eggnog will probably be nonalcoholic, but nothing’s stopping you from taking it back to your over-21 room and adding your legally-purchased rum.

Club Dimensions, in consort with Club Bangla and the Kraft Family Fund will be showing an animated film at 8:00 PM tonight in the Lerner Cinema.

That wouldn’t be any fun.  It does, however, require digging through […]
