(New) 14 March 2026, MoL Cleaning Party
Location: SP 107Target audience: MoL studentsSpring is near, the sun has appeared! Join your fellow MoL students for a spring cleaning party: eat snacks, have drinks, and jam out to music while cleaning up our shared spaces.
March 14 is NL Doet, a national day of volunteering and service. Everybody does something special to make our world a little better. So with all the hours we spend studying and hanging out in the ILLC, we might as well make it a nicer place to be!
And in return for our good efforts, perhaps the common room dishes will come back from vacation…
