Social Events
The social calendar at Lincoln consists of four main events throughout the year as well as O-Week and Re O-week. These weeks are full of social activities such as Casino Night and themed pub crawls. First semester includes Birthday Bash, celebrating Lincoln College's creation and the Lincoln College Open Show. The Open Show is an event where all other SAAUCC Colleges are invited to attend. It was entitled Trapdoor until 2005 when it was changed to a 'Battle of the Bands' format. Second semester includes Lincoln Ball and the end of year celebration, VD (Valedictory Dinner). Lincoln Ball is a formal event where only the residents of Lincoln College can attend. VD includes a catered dinner, end of the year awards, and a dance located in the college. Lincoln College also has smaller social events throughout the year including winery tours, planned dinners, trips to the horse races, cooking classes, and game nights.

Famous quotes containing the words social and/or events:
“How strange to have failed as a social creature—even criminals do not fail that way—they are the law’s “Loyal Opposition,” so to speak. But the insane are always mere guests on earth, eternal strangers carrying around broken decalogues that they cannot read.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
“The return of the asymmetrical Saturday was one of those small events that were interior, local, almost civic and which, in tranquil lives and closed societies, create a sort of national bond and become the favorite theme of conversation, of jokes and of stories exaggerated with pleasure: it would have been a ready- made seed for a legendary cycle, had any of us leanings toward the epic.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
