The night started off with "Mocktails". Of course the dorms have to refrain from serving alcoholic beverages to the always "Thirsty" students, but there was more to this theme. The night was full of fun drinks and a jazz band that played out on the back porch. The jazz was a little different from the music that I listen to but I really enjoyed it. It was more of a rock/jam jazz than classic jazz and blues. It was really cool to get to relax and listen to a great band.
Also, the night was geared towards drinking. Obviously, not promoting it. There was a presentation afterwards talking about the dangers of binge drinking and underage drinking. They talked about all the effects on the body, as well as dangerous encounters.
The night gave all students a chance to listen to some really good jazz music (whether they previously liked it or not, it was awesome). And it gave those students who are not caught up in the college drinking scene... (unbelievable seeing as this is SIU lol). It was a interesting, informational, and fun night that was really fun for everyone.
sounds like it was so fun
