Update on University Club Status

Effective March 1st, the “little blue house behind Huggins” (17 Westwood Ave.) will be shuttered, and over the following weeks, the U-Club will start a new chapter at Godfrey House. We are unsure of an exact re-opening time-frame, but it’s hoped to be a short closure of a few weeks, so end-of-term events will be possible in April. The University has indicated demolition of Westwood will begin immediately. TGIFs continue on Feb 14th, 21st, & 28th, with Gin & Sonic playing us out on February 28th.
