Halloween X Day of the Dead Floor 20 Flyer
HARRISON

Day of the Dead X Halloween

Join us for a fun evening of creativity, food, and celebration as we explore the traditions of Día de los Muertos and Halloween! Come paint your own pumpkin and skull cutouts, enjoy a delicious dinner, and indulge in festive candy and treats. We will play a game "Who am I", discussing common traditions that are the same, and different between the two holidays. Whether you want to create a spooky Halloween masterpiece or a colorful Día de los Muertos-inspired design, this event is a great opportunity to relax, get creative, and spend time with fellow floor 20 residents!

Cupcakes & Conversations with RSM Ms. Jane Pablos

Have a maintenance concern in your room or suite? Not sure how to submit a work order or follow up on an existing request? Stop by the Du Bois College House Lobby for cupcakes and a conversation about navigating the maintenance request process! Learn how to submit and track work orders, check the status of your requests, follow up on incomplete repairs, and seek additional support when maintenance concerns remain unresolved. Whether you have a current maintenance issue or simply want to better understand the process, this is an opportunity to ask questions, learn about available resources, and advocate for your residential needs. Drop in for five minutes or stay for the full hour. All Du Bois residents are welcome!
