Fairfield's 13th Annual Presidential Ball will occur at The Bellarmine Lawn on Sept. 30! It is an exciting day to be a Stag and something that we all look forward to every year! Prez Ball is one of the few nights of the year when everyone on campus is in attendance and it is a great excuse to get dressed up. It is an event on campus that has a reputation for being a lot of fun. Here are a few key dos and don'ts for any first timers planning on going to Prez Ball:

DO: Go with friends

Prez Ball is a great night to spend with your friends, especially for the freshmen who are still trying to get to know people. The more, the merrier!

DON'T: Forget your dancing shoes

Get ready to dance the night away with all of your favorite Stags! Make sure that you wear comfortable shoes too, especially since it is outside and a long walk up to the Bellarmine Lawn.

DO: Take a picture with Father von Arx


Since it is the Presidential Ball, all of the students have the opportunity to take a picture with Fairfield's president, Father von Arx. Don't miss your chance to say hello to our current president.

DON'T: Be late

No one is admitted after 9:30 p.m., so make sure that you and your squad are there on time.

DO: Get dressed up

It is one of the few times every year all of the students of Fairfield can get really dressed up in formal attire; take advantage of it and go all out.

DON'T: Lose your friends

Things can get a little crazy once you're inside the tent at Prez Ball. Make sure that you exercise the use of the buddy system and always stay together.

DO: Take advantage of the free food

Many people forget that there is food at Prez Ball. Make sure that you stop by to check it out.

DON'T: Forget your phone

This one is a must: for pictures and in case you lose a friend, your phone is imperative.

DO: Have a great time

Prez Ball is one of the great parts about being a Stag; make sure that you enjoy it!

Fairfield's 13th Annual Presidential Ball tickets are currently on sale for $20. They will be on sale until they are sold out. It is on Bellarmine Lawn from 8 p.m. until midnight and the doors close at 9:30 p.m.

AI music threatens creativity

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
