Thursday marks the official first day of fall, and this landscape by German Expressionist painter Paula Modersohn-Becker is giving us autumnal vibes. We're looking forward to crisp mornings, changing leaves, and pumpkin spiced everything. But first, let's celebrate the season with our biggest student event of the year!

Student Late Night is this week, and we're so excited to see you all! We're expecting a large crowd on Wednesday night so please leave your large bags, backpacks, and laptops at home. (But do bring your HUID!)
