October Preview: Wide range of events and activities all month long

It's hard to think of any one month that is the busiest for the Office of Student Activities, except for June of course.

But, in terms of the fall semester, it's looking like October might come out on top. There is a full slate of events throughout the month that cover a wide range of interests. Basically, you're bound to find something that you'll want to do.

Of course, there are ticket sales to a variety of off-campus events at a great rate. We're currently selling tickets to the New England Revolution game on October 15 at Gillette Stadium. Wouldn't that be a great way to welcome family and friends to the area for Family, Friends and Alumni Weekend?

If you're looking for a way to get in the Halloween spirit ahead of LCR's annual Creeps and Ghouls dance, tickets for the Boston Ghost Tour on the night of October 22 are available for $10 each at the Office of Student Activities.

The most activity, though, is happening right here on campus. Next week is Lasell's annual spirit week, featuring free T-shirts for each class, the first ever nugget eating competition as well as Family Feud, Lasell style!

Spirit Week runs directly into Family, Friends and Alumni Weekend, which features plenty of trips of its own, as well as movie nights, a mentalist duo, river day canoe races and the undefeated rugby club's lone home game of the season.

Also in October: CAB Fright Fest tickets, Class of 2012 pumpkin carving, the All for Haiti talent show benefitting victims of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti and the more recent disaster in Japan, as well as various visiting musicians, comedians and the ghost hunter, John Zaffis.

Which event(s) are you most looking forward to?
