Try D.C., concerts or even your dorm instead - Dirty basements may be exciting now, but trust us, they get old
Reporting about the SGA, not a record of it: The Johns Hopkins News-Letter published this and the SGA did not write it, file it, or approve it. The archive holds it because the article itself uses the phrase “student council”.
Summary
- This Johns Hopkins News-Letter article reports on alternatives to fraternity parties, including music, shopping, travel and on-campus activities.
- The News-Letter reported that the Ottobar offers local bands, themed DJ nights and a monthly dance night, with Fletcher’s and the Sidebar Tavern as other music venues.
- The paper reported that Mount Vernon offers sightseeing, lunch at the Women’s Industrial Exchange and antique shopping, while Fells Point has antique stores, coffee shops and record stores.
- The article adds that a 40-minute train ride can take students to Washington, D.C., where clubs, shopping areas and the U Street neighborhood offer more activities; it notes that MARC runs only on weekdays.
- The reporter writes that students who stay on campus can visit Cafe Q, watch movies in the AMR lounges and look for events in weekly Student Council emails.
