Next Sunday we'll drop back nearly a century to the Roaring Twenties and DJ Bea will help us all experience the Flapper Era. [From Wikipedia: Flappers were a "new breed" of young Western women in the 1920s who wore short skirts, bobbed their hair, listened to jazz, and flaunted their disdain for what was then considered acceptable behavior. Flappers were seen as brash for wearing excessive makeup, drinking, treating sex in a casual manner, smoking, driving automobiles, and otherwise flouting social and sexual norms.] Sounds like college to me...
Last evening we returned to O'Reilly's Pub for our annual celebration of St. Patrick's Day and danced to Avion's lively playlist of Irish-themed tunes. In very close voting Best St. Patrick's Day Costume honors went to Qntal.

DJ JoAnn rocks Mondays at 5 pm SLT. [Monday evening photos by Avion]

DJ Surfer returns to the DJ booth to host Games Night Thursday at 5 pm in the Amusement Park after Avion filled in last week.
See you around campus,

It's more than a song title; it's a way of life for millions around the world. Next Sunday we'll gather at O'Reilly's Pub for the annual wearin' o' the green as we preview St. Patrick's Day.
Last evening we tiptoed past the croc for a night of rockabilly in one of Avion's most ingenious (and amusing) creations, Rednekkid Bar and Still. From a field of (trailer) trashy dancers, Sunbeam and Qntal were voted Best Redneck.
