University Weekend

Stockton’s University Weekend was from October 9-11. On Friday it started off with Stockton Spirit Day, where students were encouraged to wear school colors or apparel. Spirit night included a stand up comedy performance by Carly Aquilino and a chance to get a free University Weekend t-shirt. The Stockton Entertainment Team (S.E.T) set up (no pun intended) the performance that all the students loved. Carly, who is a cast member of MTV’s Girl Code, gave an unforgettable performance filled with laugh-out-loud and embarrassing stories, snarky and relatable humor, and a question and answer session to let Stockton students learn more about her.

On Saturday, Stockton had a University Weekend Parade, which people could view in the K-Wing circle. Afterwards, students could enjoy their afternoon at the Carnival in Lot 5. The day ended with the 20th Annual Osprey Ball, held in Campus Center Event Room. All throughout the night, dressed in their best semi-formal attire, students danced to their favorite music, ate a variety of delicious food, and took pictures to remember the night at the photo booth. Sunday was dedicated to Lake Fred; throughout the day, students had the opportunity to go on nature tours, giving them a chance to learn about secret pathways and just plain enjoy the scenery.

All in all, University Weekend was a great way for students to bond with their old friends, make new ones, and display their pride of being a Stockton student.
