Members of the New England Class of 2028 celebrated the last dance of the semester in style last Saturday, whisking their fellow students off to ancient Greece for a delightful evening of dancing.

Attendees entered Bl. Frassati Student Center to find themselves stepping into the Mediterranean, surrounded by marble and creeping vines. 淭he decorations were on point,� said Adelaide Morrissey (�28). The tables were lavishly spread with fruit, nuts, cheeses, and olives. Freshman Madeline O橩ray (�28), known for her baking talents, made baklava, a Greek dessert featuring layers of pastry soaked in honey and topped with walnuts.

Once everyone arrived, the Class of 2028 proudly presented the night檚 entertainment: a hilarious mockumentary about TAC dating. Students were rolling with laughter at the witty, creative observations the freshmen had made about the romantic culture at the College. 淚檒l say one thing: they檙e not wrong,� joked Greg Maynard (�26).

After a few dances to get things moving, Gabe Livingston (�28) took the mic to emcee the annual swing dance competition. Each couple was announced by name as they walked onto the floor. 淭here was a lot of talent,� Gabe said. 淭he judges had a hard time!� In the end, Sam Livingston (�26) and Teresa Cole (�27) took first place. The real joy of the competition, however, was the dancing itself. 淚 entered just to have fun,� said Bernadette Pfeiffer (�28). 淭hat檚 all that matters to me.�

As the night went on, dancing continued, and students made the most of the Class of 2025檚 last dance. 淚t檚 bittersweet,� said Teresa Bingham (�26). 淲e檝e made so many memories with them, it檚 hard to say goodbye.� Many students stayed a little longer than normally, spending time with their favorite seniors. 淚檝e only known them for a year,� said Madeline Rogers (�28). 淏ut they檝e taught me so much and I檓 going to miss them.�
