Thanksgiving Week Recap

 Frank Piegari

Happy Monday Saints!

With Thanksgiving now behind us I wanted to say how thankful I was for a week off.

But instead of leaving you high and dry, we're going to do a recap of this past week's events that you might have missed out on.

On Monday (11/21) the Gender and Sexuality Alliance hosted Queer Chats in Tower Hall with the main topic of conversation being asexuality. With just a few weeks left of the semester, be sure to attend one of the upcoming Queer Chats in the coming weeks before it's too late.

On Tuesday (11/22) the GSA kept it comfy as they hosted "Cozy Movie Night". The event began at 7:30 p.m. in San Damiano Hall with attendees being treated to snacks and a showing of the critically acclaimed film Everything Everywhere All at Once. As is tradition every week, the Walmart shuttle took to the road once again. This time leaving on Tuesday at 7 p.m. due to the holiday.

There you have it Saints, this wraps up your Thanksgiving week recap, be sure to check back tomorrow for this week's new!
