Enjoy ice cream, games (cornhole, board games), and "THE SMARTEST UNDER THE HEAVENS" chess tournament between universities. Sign-up and details of the event are provided HERE. The social theme will be simple - school spirit!
During the social, there will be lab tours of the Nuclear Engineering labs in the basement of Hallowell. Make sure to jump in one and check out the fantastic research happening!
Bar Crawl Shirts purchased during the St. Jude fundraiser can be picked up from 1 to 5 pm at Hallowell Nuclear Innovation Commons next to the registration room. A group will leave Hallowell around 9 pm to go to the bars together. The shirt suggests downtown bars for attendees (21+ with valid government-issued photo ID) to visit at their leisure.
Notes: The social event at Hallowell ends at 11 pm, and the last hotel shuttles leave Fullington Bus Station at midnight. Visiting downtown bars is voluntary and at your own risk.
