MIT Family Weekend
Mark your calendars! This year's MIT Family Weekend is October 27 - 28,
2017. The full schedule can be found here
<http://ua.bmetrack.com/c/l?u=755E301&e=BE7A8D&c=BCBA2&t=0&email=euW8pQVPf07QNPIk%2BQ4Xo6BanR218rId&seq=1>.
Below are two events to get involved:
*Underclass Ice Cream Social*
*4:00 - 5:30pm October 27, *

*Morss Hall *On Friday, October 27, while the Class of 2018 kicks off
senior year at the Senior Class Toast, we will be hosting an Ice Cream
Social in Walker Memorial’s Morss Hall for juniors, sophomores, and
first-year families. This would be a great opportunity for the Class
Councils to share with parents and families some of the planned events and
activities for the year. For example, junior class officers could talk
about Junior Formal; sophomore class officers could talk about RingComm;
and the first-year class could introduce its newly elected class officers!
*Fall into Family Weekend*

*October 28, 2017 *
On Saturday, October 28, we will host a fun-filled autumn festival called
Fall into Family Weekend! There will be fall-themed food and activities,
and we would love to have student groups set-up tables to show off their
clubs and organizations. We sent out a sign-up form
<http://ua.bmetrack.com/c/l?u=755E302&e=BE7A8D&c=BCBA2&t=0&email=euW8pQVPf07QNPIk%2BQ4Xo6BanR218rId&seq=1>
for
student groups who may want to have a table at Fall into Family Weekend, or
for student groups who might like to have a stand-alone event during Family
Weekend.
