It seems like not too long ago we were checking students in and they were moving boxes into their dorm rooms. Time certainly did fly by and now that Thanksgiving has passed we now are all looking forward to the upcoming Holiday Season.
Earlier this month we celebrated Threshold's 30th Anniversary with a spectacular gala held at the Copley Place Marriott Hotel. The celebration was a huge success with more than 500 attendees and the official announcement that some of Threshold's facilities will undergo some extensive and well needed renovations. The night was filled with great food, company, and of course, a lot of dancing. For more information and photos about the gala please visit:

Threshold students and alumni recently went to the BLINK! Festival in Boston. BLINK! is a spectacular light show outside of Faneuil Hall and is decorated with thousands of lights that blink to holiday music preformed by the Boston Pops. Several students reported that they had an amazing time and would be returning to see it again.
Residence Life staff look forward to hosting more holiday activities to keep our spirits and motivation up as we finish the last month of the semester. If you have any ideas or would like to help with a holiday activity, please send me your suggestions.
Parents of current students, please send me your students' check out plans for the holidays when you know of them. I like to keep track of students and their departure times as sometimes we can create traveling groups going to the same destination. Knowing plans also helps me remind and help students who may be confused about how they are getting home. I thank you in advance for this information.
To all readers of this blog, I wish you all a wonderful Holiday Season and a very happy 2013.
