Sunday Cider
Sunday Cider has been an Elder tradition for a decade and is now a staple of North Area community-building. It’s a great way to warm up, literally with a cup of hot cider and figuratively with some mingling with area neighbors. Faculty-in-Residence Elizabeth and Jason work with Resident Assistants to serve cider and donuts, which are often accompanied by a performance or outreach from a student group.
Welcome Back Breakfast
North Area Council loves to start the quarter off with a “Welcome Back Breakfast” to nourish your stomachs and minds to prepare for the busy quarter ahead —draws crowds for its big spreads of food, casual conversation, and stress relief. Keep an eye on the North Area newsletter for details about what’s on tap!
Pasta Night
A warm plate of pasta and great company—what more could you ask for? Started by the North Area Council, Pasta Night has quickly become a beloved tradition, bringing residents together over delicious pasta from Trattoria D.O.C. in Evanston. More than just a meal, this event is a chance to connect, unwind, and build community with your neighbors and Area Council. Don’t miss the next Pasta Night—come for the food, stay for the friendships!
Write Night
Faculty-in-Residence Elizabeth, who happens to be Director of the Cook Family Writing Program, organizes Write Night for North Area residents each quarter. Along with brain food, there are peer consultants from the Writing Place and librarians from to help attendees with research projects and term papers. It’s a great way to be feed off the energy of everyone working while taking time to chat, ask questions, and share ideas.
