Finals week means serious stress for many students at Tulane University, so the dining team has created a distraction of the alien kind with the Cram at the Commons: Area 51 Edition/Cram Jam, a late-night event that helped take the finals blues away by turning the focus to the bigger universe out there, with alien costumes, glittery makeup stations from a local company and, of course, a menu with out-of-this-world items.
The space was set up with space-themed study snacks such as “Saturn’s rings” onion rings, moon pizza bagels, Area 51 hummus, rocket fuel hot chocolate, aliens in a blanket and many more snacks and treats, all focused on what would happen if aliens invaded campus. The event was a huge hit, shared widely on social media thanks to the cute props (love those inflatable aliens!), and about 1,400 students got to blast off from reality for just a while.
