February

The Viennese Ball is a masquerade ball that occurs each February in the Dottie Collins Commons. Like the Halloween Dance, a classy new theme is chosen each year, but the Viennese Ball also features a string quartet through the Jacobs School of Music and a gnome ice sculpture. Our residents are given the opportunity to waltz to classical music and snack on hors d’oeuvres for the first hour, but the DJ eventually steps in and starts a dance party. Attendees wear masks and formal attire to keep with the festive spirit!
