Dickens Dinner

Dickens Dinner

December

Each winter holiday season, Collins residents enjoy the festive Dickens Dinner, which dates back to 1978 and includes a special menu prepared by the Dining Hall manager. It’s a long-standing tradition for our students to bring their favorite professor to the dinner, and some even decide to dress up as a character from a Charles Dickens novel! Students are strongly encouraged to dress nicely for the occasion.
