Kicking Off Spring Weekend

Spring Weekend 2017 Schedule

Spring Weekend is one of my favorite Fordham traditions. Every year before finals, Fordham students get a chance to relax and have fun. The events for the weekend include a guest speaker, DJ, concert, dance, and comedian. CAB (Campus Activities Board) does a great job planning these events and hosting other fun activities. This year, CAB held Escape the Room and a Bingo night with cool prizes, including a helicopter ride. 

Behind the scenes- Campus Movie Fest

There's also a focus on student involvement through events like acapella concerts and contests to be the student DJ, band, or comedian opening for the main acts. Another great way for students to get involved is through the Campus Movie Fest.  Students are provided with all the equipment they will need to make their own short films.  It's an opportunity for anyone to act, direct, or write a movie.  

In the past two years, Fordham has had some great guests, including Brandon Stanton from Humans of New York, Jamie Lee from Girl Code, Twenty One Pilots, Shawn Johnson, Aidy Bryant from SNL, and Matt and Kim. This year, Fordham hosted Ice-T and is welcoming DJ Gazzo, Timeflies, and Colin Jost from SNL's Weekend Update.  As this Spring Weekend kicks off, Fordham students are looking forward to enjoying the sun, being entertained, and spending time with friends before finals start.
