Faculty & Staff Request for Group Housing

The LUCC Residence Life Committee is looking for faculty or staff interested in being a voting member of the group housing process.

Those who are voting committee members would ensure that the group housing process is fair and equal to all groups applying. This is a commitment that lasts only as long as the housing selection process (March 8, 9 a.m.-1 p.m.; subject to change).

There are currently two positions open for applicants. You may not apply if you are an advisor for any student org that is already within the group houses or is considering group housing.

Applications will be accepted until March 5 at 11:59 p.m. If you are interested, please reach out to Antonia Lagunilla, co-chair of the LUCC Res Life Committee (antonia.lagunilla@lawrence.edu).

Cloak Theatre

Join us for the premiere of 3 one-act plays written by Lawrence students!

“This Isn’t How It Happens” by Shira Hanovich
Kate is dead. At least, that’s what everyone at this funeral seems to think. But when she gets out of her coffin and insists that this isn’t how it happens, her guests are stuck trying to bend to her will. As Kate gets closer to determining how the events of this funeral play out, the threat of death and existential fear loom ever closer.

“The House on the Hill” by Madeline Guest
Adam is dead. But he wasn’t a few minutes ago. As he tries to understand what the rest of his life (or, rather, death) will look like, 3 other new friends begin to figure out why they’ve been left behind.

“Static Cling” by Nina Broberg
When student-athlete Faith Mitchell is recovering from a major surgery following a terrible break to her elbow, she comes to believe she is being haunted by a malevolent ghost coming to take revenge on her. Her neighbor, Jillian Vincent, tries to help her get to the bottom of what’s really haunting her.

Also featuring developing productions:

  • “Beyond the Myths: The Storyteller” by Kean Zhao – audio production
  • “Moving Beyond” by Diego Garcia – staged reading

Performances will take place in the Cloak Theatre, located inside the Lawrence University Music-Drama Center.
