Movie on the Lawn
“Let me tell you something kid; Everybody gets one chance to do something great. Most people never take the chance either because they're too scared, or they don't recognize it when it spits on their shoes” - Just a little preview of the movie we will be showing (we're going old school). Grab some from friends and a blanket and meet us on Memorial Lawn.
Monday, September 26 - Friday, September 30
Homecoming Week Happenings: While alumni prepare to come home for the big Saturday festivities, we live it up with five nights filled with five events: The Zipline (Monday), Open-Mic night (Tuesday), Dodgeball Tourney (Wednesday/Thursday), and a Movie Night (Friday).

Send Off
We provide a list of things to pack. You pack your luggage. You show up and compete in an all-campus rock/paper/scissors competition. Immediately following, we send the winner and a same-sex friend on a weekend getaway. And yes, we're serious. Two people will be leaving the event headed out on a “you won't believe it” weekend time of their life.

Twelve Hours of Christmas
First off, who doesn't like Christmas (seriously, don't be that guy). Then how awesome is 12 hours of Christmas?(Pretty awesome). This day is a bundle of little Christmas presents waiting for you all to unwrap them (metaphorically speaking). Join us as we celebrate the Holiday season as a Geneva community.

Film Fest
As the semester comes to an end, what better way to celebrate than with one of the biggest events of the year. You all make the films (start collaborating now). Everyone dresses up. We all watch the films. And the night becomes one to remember (my high school prom theme). This will be one you will not want to miss. Interested in making a film, check out the rules on our website and start shooting.
Get Excited. Get Involved.
You put the Student in Student Activities.
With Love. Student Activities.
