There are so many events during Weeks of Welcome, you might have a hard time deciding which ones to hit up. Here’s a pro tip: Don’t miss First Night, free ice cream or the Involvement Expo.
SAPB Late Night: First Night
- When: Saturday, Aug. 18, from 7 to 11 p.m.
- Where: Campus Center
- What: A little bit of everything – free food, movies, music, games, crafts and more.
You’ve moved all your stuff, but classes don’t start for another 48 hours. There’s no better way to fill that spare time than with First Night. This is your chance to hang out with old friends and make new ones while playing games, noshing on free food, enjoying a movie, getting your craft on and generally having fun with any number of other entertaining activities.
The event is hosted by the Student Activities Programming Board and is the first in its Late Night series. Be sure to check out SAPB’s social events as well as educational and entertaining programming throughout the year.
