Quadstock
Hundreds of students spread out across the Quad lawn yesterday for the first ever Quadstock, a celebration of "peace and music" inspired by the 1969 Woodstock Music and Art Fair. The event, planned by the Quad House Committees, featured dozens of student performers, including bands and solo artists, who performed throughout the evening in various locations around the grassy lawn. Taking advantage of the warm, sunny weather, all three Quad Houses moved their dinners outside, allowing students to bask in the sunshine and musical vibes.
