While most students head home for turkey and traditions, a few stay behind to experience a quieter, emptier side of campus during Thanksgiving break

Local events for students to visit as campus grows quiet over the break

By Nolan Sheehan, Staff Writer November 23, 2024
As the majority of students prepare their bus tickets, check over their boarding passes and fill up the gas tanks of their family cars, Ithaca College prepares to close down campus for Thanksgiving break. The college’s classrooms will go dark, and with them, any major presence of a student body for the week. Despite most students returning home for the interim, some students are here to stay. The remaining students will find there is very little to do on campus once the break begins. With Dining Services and academic buildings closed, the minuscule numbers of students and staff result in a low amount of entertaining and community-bonding events.
