Ithaca, NY – March 24, 2008 – The end of senior year marks some important achievements and events. They include: celebrating the end of 16 (or more) years of school, moving into the ‘real world’, rejoicing in job acceptances, and most importantly the week-long extravaganza known as Senior Week!
This year, the Senior Week events are bigger and better than ever before. With a multitude of events over the course of the week, the last few days on campus for seniors will be absolutely unforgettable. In addition to the great programming, prices for the week’s events are at an all time low to ensure that the majority of the senior class can attend and celebrate their great achievements! Seniors can purchase a Senior Card until March 31, 2008 which will enable them to save 50% on a Senior Week Pass.
