The moon was shining over first-year Grace Stokes’ head when she sat in front of a bonfire to roast s’mores with her friend.
“It has a chill vibe,” said Stokes, a pre-med student from Wisconsin.
SMU Program Council held its “S’mores and Snores” event in the quad between Armstrong and Crum Residential Commons on Thursday night.
The organization provided students an opportunity to sit around fire pits, roast s’mores, and watch a movie.
S’mores weren’t the only favorite among students. They could also enjoy a hot chocolate bar, cookies from Tiff’s Treats and Pokey O’s and a little entertainment.
Laughter filled the air as students reclined on air mattresses and blow-up chairs while watching the comedic movie “We’re the Millers.”
After a rainy day, light wind carried the aroma of fire through the air. Students wore light jackets and long sleeved shirts signaling the changing of the seasons.
Program Council’s Programming Chair Kelsey O’Leary planned the event to usher in the fall.
“It’s an outdoorsy event,” said O’Leary, a second-year Mustang. “It brings people together.”
