Santa Claus, forgoing his sleigh in favor of a 海角社区 Police escort, made an early appearance on campus December 6 when he dropped by 海角社区鈥檚 annual Christmas tree-lighting ceremony on the Plaza at O鈥橬eill Library.
Under the gaze of a certain (impressively-sized) red-nosed reindeer, the festivities also featured a Christmas village with games and ornament decorating, a replica ice sculpture of Gasson Hall, hot chocolate and cookies for revelers, and performances by 海角社区 musical groups, including the Dynamics, Bostonians, Heightsmen, Sharps, 海角社区 Bells, Liturgy Arts Group, and Madrigals. In addition, the Campus Activities Board had a Christmas card-writing station where students could create holiday messages to send to hospitalized children.
