October 5, 2009 by LCN
Monday 5 October
Zen Meditation Practice I don’t know about the rest of you, but I could sure use a little more zen in my life these days.
Spellbound A classic Hitchcock film. Excellent date potential.
Tuesday 6 October
Romeyn de Hooghe: Virtuoso Etcher Have you ever heard the phrase “Come up to my room and see my etchings?” Hint: It’s a euphemism. (Also, I went to college with a guy named Romeyn.)
Dilmun Hill-MacDaniels Nut Grove Farm Stand Fresh apples, anyone?
Swing Dance Classes and Practice Also excellent date material. I’m just saying.
Wednesday 7 October
Creatively Coping with Stress If you can’t have Zen, at least learn to cope?
Red Lights: The Lives of Sex Workers in Postsocialist China I do not recommend this for date night, but I bet it’s interesting.
Thursday 8 October
S.O.S/D.: Save Our Swedish (and Dutch) Nothing says Fall at Cornell like a good protest.
Civil Liberties in the Age of Obama Alex Payne would have loved this one.
Learn to Climb And nothing says date night like strapping someone into ropes and a harness. Helmet optional.
Friday 9 October
NPR’s “Science Friday” Broadcasting Live from Cornell’s Bailey Hall This one is only here because UnivComm is promoting it like crazy and I feel obligated to share.
Cornell Games Club A good date lets the girl win.
Public Viewing Night at the Fuertes Observatory Classic date activity.
