200 Nights cancelled

This year another blow was made to the ever-shrinking list of senior traditions: the cancellation of 200 Nights.

In years past, 200 Nights was an annual school-sponsored event for seniors to celebrate the countdown until graduation. However, the heavy drinking that was involved provoked administration to pull the plug on this once eagerly-anticipated party, ensuring that 200 Nights will join ranks of Clam Jam, Keg Races, and Mock-Wedding as mere memories of Fairfield’s distant glory days.

One senior Ashlee Fox, decided to step up and take on the task of planning replacement event which she called 100 Nights. Fox was responsible for coordinating this entire night without any Fairfield Univeristy resources, even stagweb e-mails were out of the question. The alternative party was held at The Loft, in South Norwalk and was considered a success by most who attended. The only complaints came from seniors who were not aware of the details of event, which they blamed on lack of publicity. Never the less, students pulled together to preserve a cherished tradition; a sign of hope for senior classes to come.
