International Club to offer disco flavor
The International Club is giving students a chance to enjoy late-night dance and food while learning about travel and international culture this weekend.
The International Dinner and Disco will take place from 9 p.m. Saturday to 1 a.m. Sunday at Calkins Hall’s Terrace Lounge.
Calkins Residence Hall Director Cathleen Warner said the event was inspired by the 14 international students who live in the residence hall.
“It will give international students the opportunity to share their culture and experience” she said.
Miranda Crawford, Indian River sophomore and Calkins Hall president, said the theme doesn’t reflect the American form of disco.
“They refer to their own dance clubs as discotheque,” she said.
The event will feature food from local restaurants, as well as dishes from members of the International Club.
The event is free, but the group will be selling cookbooks containing recipes for the dishes presented. The cookbooks will be sold for $3 to $4 and the International Club will donate the proceeds to a charity that is yet to be determined.
