Fairfield's 13th Annual Presidential Ball will occur at The Bellarmine Lawn on Sept. 30! It is an exciting day to be a Stag and something that we all look forward to every year! Prez Ball is one of the few nights of the year when everyone on campus is in attendance and it is a great excuse to get dressed up. It is an event on campus that has a reputation for being a lot of fun. Here are a few key dos and don'ts for any first timers planning on going to Prez Ball:

DO: Go with friends

Prez Ball is a great night to spend with your friends, especially for the freshmen who are still trying to get to know people. The more, the merrier!

DON'T: Forget your dancing shoes

Get ready to dance the night away with all of your favorite Stags! Make sure that you wear comfortable shoes too, especially since it is outside and a long walk up to the Bellarmine Lawn.

DO: Take a picture with Father von Arx


Since it is the Presidential Ball, all of the students have the opportunity to take a picture with Fairfield's president, Father von Arx. Don't miss your chance to say hello to our current president.

DON'T: Be late

No one is admitted after 9:30 p.m., so make sure that you and your squad are there on time.

DO: Get dressed up

It is one of the few times every year all of the students of Fairfield can get really dressed up in formal attire; take advantage of it and go all out.

DON'T: Lose your friends

Things can get a little crazy once you're inside the tent at Prez Ball. Make sure that you exercise the use of the buddy system and always stay together.

DO: Take advantage of the free food

Many people forget that there is food at Prez Ball. Make sure that you stop by to check it out.

DON'T: Forget your phone

This one is a must: for pictures and in case you lose a friend, your phone is imperative.

DO: Have a great time

Prez Ball is one of the great parts about being a Stag; make sure that you enjoy it!

Fairfield's 13th Annual Presidential Ball tickets are currently on sale for $20. They will be on sale until they are sold out. It is on Bellarmine Lawn from 8 p.m. until midnight and the doors close at 9:30 p.m.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.
