Whether you are a first semester student, or a senior slated to graduate in five months (yeah, it鈥檚 that close!), you鈥檝e probably seen or heard of this thing called “The Dome.”
Now you are probably thinking, 鈥淲hat鈥檚 your point, of course, I know what 鈥楾he Dome鈥 is, how could I miss it?鈥
Here鈥檚 my point:
As the weather gets worse and worse, and possibly worse, you need to constantly come up with things to do inside. What better outlet for social entertainment than one of the most prominent features of campus?
The best part is, you don鈥檛 even have to be a sports fan to enjoy it! But we鈥檒l start there first.
For the sports fans out there:
Home football games are a thing of the past now, and that means it鈥檚 time for basketball. Here are a few big games you don鈥檛 want to miss for Men鈥檚 and Women鈥檚 hoops:

- Georgetown, Dec. 8 at 3:30 p.m. (Crawl out of the library for a few hours, it鈥檚 Georgetown, after all)
- Pitt, Jan. 19 at 2 p.m.
- Duke, Feb. 23 at TBD
- Virginia, March 4 at 7 p.m.
