It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Deck the halls with boughs of holly...Alumni Hall that is!  The entire Vermilion campus is beginning to look a lot like Christmas.  Not only has the college been decorated, but students have decked out their dorms as well!

Classes ceased on Friday December 9th and students are beginning to write finals.  But it's not all just studying and spending hours on end in the library, as many fun activities occur in the month of December.

The month kicked off with the Christmas Gala on December 2nd.  At Gala, 370 students and their guests enjoyed a wonderful Christmas meal with the teachers acting as servers.  Supper was followed by a dance, which had 575 people in attendance.  Steve Rose of RoadTrax DJ Service kept the students out on the dance floor all night long; everyone had a blast! 

The staff of Lakeland College dressed up to show their
 Christmas spirit as they acted as servers at the Christmas Gala.

In the week following Gala, many clubs and programs celebrated their Christmas parties.  The Stockmans Club held their Christmas party at Spurs on December 6th.  They had a potluck supper and a Chinese gift exchange.  All the members came dressed in their ugliest Christmas sweaters.

Members of the Stockmans Club showed off their ugly sweaters
at their Christmas Party on December 6th.

Many other classes and clubs have also had individual Christmas parties to help get everyone in the Christmas spirit; after all, it's going to be here before we know it!


 Have a
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone!
