A Yummy Winter Weeks of Welcome Event

Giveaways and bundt cakes—who could ask for more? BU’s First Day Fest at the GSU January 20 celebrated the semester’s first day of classes, with Misora Ito (Sargent’26) (from left), Sabrina Wei (CAS’28), and Kate Dougherty, Campus Activities Board director, handing out free bundt cakes. The event was a very popular part of the new semester’s Winter Weeks of Welcome. Photo by Jackie Ricciardi
