Events
The Inn is more than a gathering place. The Inn has a lively social calendar that includes some of the most exciting events at the Law School.
Winter Dinner: The flagship event of the Inn is the annual Winter Dinner, a black tie/formal event held at a downtown hotel. Members meet early in the evening at the Inn for the signing of the annual poster, a tradition as old as the Inn itself. Original posters from as far back as 1918 can be found adorning the walls of the house. Tickets are free for members and guest tickets are available for purchase.
Harvard/Yale Game: Harvard may not be a university known for its athletics, but the annual Harvard/Yale game is a tradition that Inn members, and most of the community, can get excited about. The Inn provides a pre-game tailgate party and, when the game is held at Yale, a bus to transport members to New Haven to cheer on the Crimson.
Theme Parties: The Inn throws a number of festive themed events throughout the year. Some past highlights have included “Heaven and Hell,” the Inn’s annual Halloween party; the James Bond Martini Night; numerous Hawaiian-themed events; and the annual St. Patrick’s Day party.
Spring Fling: In recent years, the Spring Fling has offered students a chance to unwind a bit from their pre-exam stress by taking a scenic boat cruise of the Boston Harbor. In some years, the Spring Fling has been a semi-formal dance as well.
A poster signed by all the current members is drawn every year to commemorate that year's Christmas/Winter Dinner.Read more about this topic: Lincoln's Inn Society
Famous quotes containing the word events:
“One cannot be a good historian of the outward, visible world without giving some thought to the hidden, private life of ordinary people; and on the other hand one cannot be a good historian of this inner life without taking into account outward events where these are relevant. They are two orders of fact which reflect each other, which are always linked and which sometimes provoke each other.”
—Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
“At all events there is in Brooklyn
something that makes me feel at home.”
—Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
““The ideal reasoner,” he remarked, “would, when he had once been shown a single fact in all its bearings, deduce from it not only all the chain of events which led up to it but also all the results which would follow from it.””
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
