The city of Boston will light a big Christmas tree on the Boston Commons next Thursday, November 29th, and CGS is hosting!

Well, technically the city of Boston is hosting, but CGS student government is hosting the Facebook event. They are inviting students to come for Christmas songs and a Christmas tree and ice-skating and pretty lights and maybe snow and maybe Santa.

Other schools at BU could learn a thing or two from CGS. It’s the lesson most Christmas movies teach us, to recapture our childhood and believe in something. To let go of the pressures of the grown-up world for a little while and surrender to the magic of the season. The last event that COM hosted was the BUTV general interest meeting. Not very festive, is it?

Christmas trees are way better. And everyone is invited!
