After Dark: something else to do on the weekend

Prospective students often want to know what’s going on during free time aside from studying and writing papers. Throughout the school year, a student-run organization called After Dark hosts free events welcome to the whole student body. The first major kick-off event occurs before classes begin with a “party on the patio” behind our student union. All first year students are encouraged to enjoy music, food, and entertainment while getting to meet new friends. Miamians are also invited to recent movie showings throughout the year in our student union, and popcorn is free! When it’s nice outside, sometimes they’ll have movie showings on a large projector screen outside on our main quad. Some other events include a guest magician, an arcade night, and ice skating. We once invited casino card dealers to show off what they were made of to anyone who dared playing them on our casino night (don’t worry, no real gambling occurred).

You might even be interested in joining the After Dark crew. This is only one of over 300 student organizations on campus, and there are also leadership opportunities in After Dark. If you want more information on upcoming activities or how to get involved, visit the After Dark
