University Holiday Party on Dec. 21

The annual University-wide holiday party, sponsored by Aramark, will be held on Thursday, Dec. 21, at 3 p.m. in the Commons Dining Hall. Everyone is encouraged to bring a donation to The Nosh—our on-campus food pantry. 

Thank you again to our partners at Aramark for hosting this celebratory gathering for our faculty and staff.

A truck will be parked directly outside of the Commons to collect food and toiletry donations. Please drop donations at the truck before entering the Commons building.  

Guests are asked to arrive no earlier than 2:50 p.m.—doors will open at 2:55 p.m.

Shuttle service will be available in the event of inclement weather, running between GSU (Lot B) and the Commons from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m.
