Come for 10 minutes or two hours to enjoy convivial conversations, one of the best balconies on campus, sodas, wine, and surprise treats that have struck the fancy of your hosts, Fr. Charlie Gordon, C.S.C., Karen Eifler, and Jamie Powell. It’s all happening in 330 Franz Hall. Bring a friend, especially if they are new to UP. For more information, contact eifler@up.edu.
