On Tuesday March 6, The Department of
English and Modern Languages hosted a Chinese New Year Festival from 4 to
5:30pm in the Hoff Conference Rooms, Blum Student Union rooms 218-219.
Chinese Spring Festival, also
referred to as Chinese New Year, is the grandest and the most important annual
event for Chinese people and is when all family members get together, just like
Christmas in the West. 2018 is the Year of the Dog according to Chinese zodiac.
This year, the event featured Chinese
Calligraphy, lion dances, games and traditional dances and music. The event attracted a good crowd of
students, faculty, staff and community members. The authentic Chinese food and
snacks offered at the event were also a big incentive for people to attend.
