Friday Night Flick Pt. 1 & 2

Hey there BC students!  Although the semester is coming to a close, any inebriated exceptional college student knows that it’s never too late to have a good time, which is why your Campus Activities Board is still bringing some amazing events for you to enjoy before you depart for the summer. Here’s the kicker: this weekend you’ll be recovering from not one hangover, but two!

We will be showing two outrageously hilarious films for you to enjoy: Hangover I and II featuring Bradley Cooper,  Zach Galafianakis, Ed Helms, and Justin Bartha. Hangover III will be coming out in theatres soon so what better way to catch up on the prequels than to watch them for free.

Rave Party

What do you have to RAVE about? We’re guessing probably nothing. Spring Break week flew by far too quickly, classes and work have resumed to a regular schedule, and your professors are relentless—but that doesn’t mean the fun has to end!

 That’s why you should join us this Friday at 10pm in the Activities Room at the RAVE Party. This weekend will only be as exciting as you make it, and what better way to let loose than to party with CAB? DJ Andy Dunn has put together a great mix of diverse music that is sure to be a crowd pleaser, but as always, that’s not ALL we have to offer.

Friday Night Flick VS. Flashback Friday: What's The Difference?

Many of you know that CAB hosts two events called Friday Night Flick and Flashback Friday, but what's the difference? We've got the answers!

At both events, food and drinks are provided while CAB shows movies. However, at the Friday Night Flick, fairly new movies are seen. On the other hand, at Flashback Friday's old school movies are watched and students also have the chance to play throwback games such as Sorry, Twister, Candyland, and much more.

Thanks to the 115 students who helped us pick which movies to watch this week, the winners are Little Rascals and Good Burger. CAB greatly appreciates your support and participation.

Come out to Baird Lounge tomorrow at 7 PM for a good time! We can't to see you!!!

Free Verse

Carter G. Woodson Weekend is vastly approaching, and as we get ready to share our campus with rambunctious high school students our special guests, we should also prepare to welcome the lyrically blessed duo Free Verse!

 If you found George Watsky entertaining, these two will give him a run for his money. Ayinde Russell and Dominique Ashaheed are not just poets; they are comedians, visionaries, enlighteners, and quite frankly, the purest form of entertainment there is. They have SOLD OUT college campuses across the country and have also toured abroad from countries like Russia to Thailand. They ARE the slam poets of 2013.

And for the first time in history, they will take the stage at Berea in Phelp-Stokes on Friday, February 15^th at 8pm prompt.

Light refreshments will be provided. LET'S TAKE BACK FUN!

Fashion Show After Party

This Saturday's fashion show is sure to bring a variety of fun filled fashion lines. The African Student Association and the Black Student Union come together this year to promote several causes such as AIDS, diabetes, autism, and many other causes. After being thoroughly entertained and educated, CAB will be hosting an after party in the Activities Room. THAT'S RIGHT! WE'RE HAVING AN AFTER PARTY! This is the first time that an after party has been held for the fashion show and we are sure that everyone will be there in their best attire.

Russell Dickerson Music Concert

 Homecoming was a blast but we're still on a roll to TAKE BACK FUN! This week CAB will be hosting a free country music concert for Russell Dickerson. It will take place in Phelps-Stokes at 7 PM on Friday, November 16th.

This Friday's concert is sure to be rocking!  Dickerson is the product of a musical family background, which explains his natural ability to entertain.  Dickerson has performed live at numerous college venues across the country. He has been continuously praised by fans and new listeners alike for his rich vocal quality and unique style. He first discovered his passion for country music at the tender age of ten, when his family moved to Nashville, a.k.a. “Music City”.

Homecoming 2012

HOMECOMING SEASON IS OFFICIALLY HERE! WOO HOO! With that being said CAB is ready to TAKE BACK FUN with Spirit Week days as well as our annual Homecoming Party. Check out the day's below for the Spirit Week days:

Monday - Pajama Day

Tuesday - Twin Day

Wednesday - Superhero Day

Thursday - International Day

Friday - Nerd Day

Saturday - Blue Crew Day

Our theme for this year's party will be "Diamonds in the Moonlight". We're not enforcing a strict dress code but come dressed to impressed and have some fun. More importantly, please note that NO COATS OR BOOK BAGS WILL BE ALLOWED IN THE PARTY. Your campus activities board has graciously provided you with a coat rack so you don't get all hot and sweaty in the party.

Cart Show Competition

Could your student organization use some extra cash? Do you think you're creative? Do you want to help CAB take back fun? Then the cart show competition might be for you! This year in an effort to help build community during Homecoming, CAB is going to have a cart competition. No, not a race cart with wheels and gas (that's too dangerous for us!). However, we are going to use grocery carts instead. Student organizations will be responsible for decorating their grocery cart to reflect their org's personal style.                                               

Magician Daniel Martin

Looking for something to do to prepare for Mountain Day? Come out to Phelps-Stokes at 7 PM to see magician Daniel Martin. Through crowd interaction and participation, Martin’s act includes tricks such as stopping fired paintballs in mid-air and pushing glass bottles through audience members’ stomachs. These kinds of tricks have led him to being  described by his peers as one of the most creative acts performing today. Martin's original ideas have also been featured on CBS, NBC, VH1, and even ESPN. This is something you don't want to miss out on! 

Non-Trads Night Out!

Saturday, October 13th, CAB will be taking non-traditional students out for the night. Students will have the opportunity to go bowling and eat pizza for FREE! We understand that some non-traditional students have children, so CAB will also have childcare provided for this event.  Rides will also be provided for this event with vans leaving from Alumni Circle (in front of the Alumni building) at 4:30 PM. If you are looking for a fun time next weekend and are a non-traditional student, this is the event for you! We can't wait to hang out with you. LET'S TAKE BACK FUN!

This Saturday gear up for an amazing time with musician Preston Pugmire! Last Fall semester, Preston came to campus and put on an amazing show and has been invited back for yet another interactive, creative concert. During the concert, Preston lets students in on one of his secrets: he makes his own beats! In addition to this, he also made the concert intimate, providing audience members with background stories on certain songs. Of course, the campus activities board made the concert even more fun. Check inside to see how!
