Hot Take: New England Fall Actually Sucks

 

When I first told people that I had decided on Wesleyan (and then explained to them what/where Wesleyan is, I swear to god, nobody has ever heard of this school), they would say “Oh wow, fall is going to be so beautiful up there!

Foss is full of jubilant undergrads playing sports, doing homework, partaking in ~activites~, and just hanging out enjoying this beautiful day!

Come outside and enjoy the beautiful day! And if you have any nice fall photos, send them our way at staff[at]wesleying[dot]org!

Fall Fest @ Out House

Is this beautiful weather making you want to spend every waking moment outside? Out House can help with that!

Come to the Outhouse Backyard (132 High) on Saturday (the 267h!) from 2-5 p.m.  We’ll have all sorts of fall-y (and generally fun) activities, and there will be all sorts of fall-y foods to eat.

There will be cider (bring a mug!). There will be hot dogs (bring your mouth!). There will be t-shirt painting (bring a t-shirt!). There will be impromptu jam sessions (bring an instrument!). And there will be slug-wrestling (aka attacking your friends in sleeping bags). Moral of the story: it’ll be fun.

Also, we will have at least one tent full of ball pit balls. It’s gonna be sweet.

Date: Saturday, October 27
Time: 2 – 5 pm
Place: Out House
Cost: Free
