I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned one of my big responsibilities as VP of Steinhardt Student Government so if not, it's to organize and plan the annual semi-formal at Tavern on the Green located in Central Park. This year was the seventh one and it was a HUGE success.
We had been working on it probably since about November or so and everything came together so well on Friday. We sold out the event which was extremely exciting and everyone seemed to be enjoying the incredible amounts of food and music! The dance, which is open to all Steinhardt undergraduates and their dates, was from 8pm-midnight this past Friday and we had so much fun. This was the third year I went to the semi-formal and I think each year it just gets better and better!!!
Then, in case one night of living in luxury wasn't enough, my date to the Steinhardt semi-formal invited me to the CAS formal which was also at Tavern on the Green...last night! A bunch of our friends ended up going unexpectedly and we had such a great night. CAS set their event up a little differently than ours but overall they both definitely made for one of the best weekends of the year. It was a great chance to see and catch up with people who I haven't seen in a while and to spend time with the whole group we went with which I also haven't done in some time!
I would definitely recommend getting a group of people together (or just one friend) and going to any events like these...I mean, how could you turn down discounted tickets to Tavern on the Green?!
