Conner 5 Event Calendar

Freshman Dinner

We take the freshmen out to lunch or dinner. Introduce them to the Freshman 15 as soon as possible =)

Intramural Sports

We're pretty easygoing with the whole sports thing, so everyone's welcome to play. If you can get enough people together to do an IM sport, we'll do it. We regularly do volleyball, basketball, and unihoc. Sometimes we'll do ultimate (and if it's not IM, we'll have pickup games) or soccer.

Apple Bake

Everyone gets lots of apples and bakes something. Then everyone in the dorm gets together and eats!

Study Breaks

This is where we decide the when how and what all our other floor activities are, like floor trips and athletics. And we eat good food made by a different suite each week, or sometimes we get lucky and Tim makes us his famous Cincinnatti chili. During finals week, Tim feeds us every day!

Holiday Dinner

We won't hide it; food tends to be big on the floor. Before everyone leaves for (or after they come back from) Thanksgiving break, we gather in the floor lounge for a delicious potluck dinner and enjoy the awesome creations of our fellow floor members.

Hiking Trips

One of the cool things about our floor tutor, Tim, is that he's the outdoorsy type. Thus, every year we tend to go on some sort of hiking trip, often catching some great photo opportunities.

Talbot House

MIT owns a great vacation house in Vermont, right next to Killington. We like to go there for skiing, snowshoeing, lying in a dark field to stargaze, snowball fighting, and other yummy winter recreational stuff.

Dances

"JUNLIN!!! Can I borrow your curling iron???" is heard regularly during the semester when the girls are getting ready for any of the many semiformal and formal dances held at MIT.

Random outings

These have included attending Blue Man Group, the North Conway outlet stores, dim sum runs, and other places I can't remember.

Senior Dinner

After four years of bonding, we wouldn't feel right without treating our graduating seniors to dinner.
