Orange After Dark (OAD), your favorite on- and off-campus late-night programming offered through the Office of Student Activities, brings large-scale fun with a jam-packed fall semester schedule of activities. After a successful first couple of events, the OAD team is excited for the rest of the semester and all that is to come, both new and returning.
“For this semester’s schedule we incorporated some new events that we are really excited about. Among these are OAD’s first-ever End-of-Year Formal, Murder Mystery at the Spaghetti Warehouse, and a Midterm Stressbuster,” says Gaby Susana ’19, who is in the College of Arts and Sciences.
One of the most anticipated returning events is the Grit ‘N Wit Obstacle Course. Taking over the Quad on Friday, Sept. 28, at 9:30 p.m., students will have the opportunity to take on both physical and mental tasks.
With an event schedule bigger and better than ever and growing popularity on campus, it is expected that the OAD events will continue selling out. Check out the to find out more about ticketing. Some events require tickets, while some do not; some events are free, some have a $3 fee. Tickets will be available at the Schine Box Office for undergraduate students two Mondays before the event.

“We hope that by attending OAD events, students feel like they have options as to how to spend their free time in college,” says Susana. “We work really hard so students have a safe environment to mingle with different college students who they might not have met any other way.”
