We encourage you to embrace the occasion by dressing to the theme, as our fashion-forward community loves to make a statement with their attire. While there isn't a specific dress code, we believe that dressing up adds to the overall experience and festive atmosphere of the event. If you are participating in the full campus tour, walking shoes are recommended.
