In case the big white tents going up aren’t enough of a reminder, today is the day.

The entire campus community is invited to celebrate the start of the academic year with a free barbecue today from noon to 1:30 p.m. (or while supplies last) in the quad between Dillon and Chrysler halls—rain or shine.

Enjoy live music with your free sausages, chips and drinks—even a vegetarian option, served up by campus celebrities. The event is hosted by Special Events, Office of the President; the Alumni Association; and the University of Windsor Students' Alliance, with thanks to sponsors Food & Catering Services.
