Love is in the air this week…especially this Thursday (tomorrow!), from 1:00–3:00 PM in the Student Center! Meet the Crook & Folly team at their annual Valentine’s Day Table, where you’ll have the opportunity to make haikus, poems, and Valentines, as well as join in a blackout poetry session. DM the team on Instagram (@crookandfolly) with any questions!

As a reminder, Crook & Folly—DePaul’s own student-run literary journal (formerly known as Threshold)—is currently accepting submissions for its 45th edition, with its art submission deadline this Friday, February 14 (click here for details) and its final deadline for written pieces next Sunday, February 23 (click here for details).

Another reminder: the LAS College Days game (DePaul Women’s Basketball vs. Villanova) is TONIGHT, at 7:00 PM! Buying a ticket for this game will donate $5 to the College of LAS. Support the Blue Demons and our department, and meet other English majors (and alumni) when you purchase a ticket in Section 123! (Click here for details.)
