They scheduled a GAAP weekend for that day and don't want the festivities to be seen by pre-frosh and their parents. They are "looking" at rescheduling. Psh. First Block Party, now this. Let the reminiscing commence. Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged "You're not a Hoya because you win. You're a Hoya because when times are bad, you're still a Hoya.

Georgetown Day will happen whether or not it's the official University celebration. A Georgetown Day on a Thursday three weeks before the end of the semester does not a true Georgetown Day make.

I wasn't there for it, so a more experienced alum can correct me on this if I'm wrong, but I believe there used to be a Block Party, basically an all-day drinkingfest at the block on N St between 36th and 37th on the last day of classes. The University ended up shutting it down (I'm not sure if a student death is related), and creating Georgetown Day in its place, I think in the early 2000s sometime. It would be too bad, because Georgetown Day developed into a nice tradition while I was there - free food, usually great weather, carnival-like entertainment, and of course, a lot of students getting drunk on the side during the day and enjoying the festivities. But it's not all about getting wasted, it's just a celebration of all that is Georgetown. Just poor scheduling. And even so, outside a few random drunk kids and possible visible parties on the rooftop, I think it can possibly make the school look good and more fun to applicants (although probably not to parents).

It's as simple as that. Current students should take precedence over "maybe future" ones. Here's the deal: Attracting the top prospective students is vital to the future of Georgetown in many ways, not least of which being its bond rating- Georgetown's high demand has been one of the key factors in keeping the place out of junk bond territory. Over the years, GAAP weekends have typically attracted nearly 1000 students and their families in the Spring, and typically around 70% of those students enroll, so you are talking about around half of each incoming class deciding to come to Georgetown at least in some part off of that experience. Unfortunately, there is simply insufficient space to host an extra 1000 or even 500 students and their families on campus while still having a functioning campus for the current students. So it is that GAAP must be done over 3 or, ideally, 4 weekends. As it happens, the calendar is not conducive to doing so this year- admissions decisions come out April 1, which does not leave enough time for people to plan to attend an open house on April 3. The following weekend is Easter. That leaves two weekends left in April to accomodate the bulk of the admitted students (EA admits can attend in late March). And Georgetown Day takes over both the spaces and volunteers needed to host an effective open house, so ultimately Georgetown Day needs to be moved to another day. I say all of this with full recognition that I would have flipped out if Block Party had been cancelled for a GAAP Open House when I was an undergrad. « Last Edit: Feb 10, 2009, 9:42am by Jack » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged Be more constructive with your feedback... please.

That smarmy little ass boil Dean Gonzalez did away with it in 2000 I believe...then did away with the true Homecoming tailgating event...then the REAL Champs closed down...then no more fun of any kind!

The next year Gonzalez came in and crushed any remaining Block Party support. Over time, Georgetown Day evolved from what seemed like kiddie carnival that no one I know really care about in 2000 to a kiddie carnival where kids drank somewhat surreptitiously and now think is the most important party of the year that could not possibly be held slightly earlier in the Spring.

I certainly don't remember Georgetown Day in 2000, but I stand corrected. I really only remember it being a somewhat big event in 2002. Of course, I wasn't on campus Spring of 2001 so maybe I just missed it in 2000 and 2001. Block Party was the tits. There will never be anything like it again. I weep for the current students.

I love you Bin, you know that, but that was a ill-thought, cynical, dick statement. Come on Cambridge, you really think being a student wandering around campus that week was much different than being an American walking around anytown usa that day? Everybody was in a funk the weeks after that day. I really don't think people who took the NYC subway to work (and had wives/husbands doing the same) were in quite the same boat as kids walking from Burleith to Lauinger. People who actually had to go to work in real target areas like manhattan and in/adjacent to the federal buildings of DC might have been putting up with a bit more stress than those on non-target university campuses who didn't have the normal real world stress of adult life to begin with-whether or not they were about to move to NYC after they graduated. I'm aware it was a bit of a dikc statement, but I think most of us who lived and worked in lower manhattan that day might have a tough time sympathizing with students on the Hilltop that particuarlly terrible fall. The Pentagaon was a rather obvious target in a big empty field/lot In NYC the target was just "as many civvilans/people as possible" and due to the extremely dense and vertical nature of the city, well, it's a bit different than DC unless you actually worked at the Capitol, White House, etc. « Last Edit: Feb 10, 2009, 10:59am by thebin » Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged "Its going to be years before they find another place to put cheese on a pizza." theexorcist Diamond Hoya member is offline Joined: Jan 2006 Posts: 2,813 Re: Georgetown Day under threat « Reply #14 on Feb 10, 2009, 10:50am » I will say that the weekend after 9/11, Georgetown still had SAC Fair. I'm still livid about that. This seems to be about poor communication. If there was an event that was held at a specific time for the past few years, there should be clear and early notice that it's either canceled or won't be held.

I will agree with much of this - matt payne was a classmate of mine and I appreciate the work he did in trying to save block party, but the final BP was not a "slightly watered down" version it was a R. Kelly urinated on, Dean Gonzalez defecated on version...everyone was herded like cattle into a small space outside McDonough Gym where there was a beer truck and a couple of spigots...or am i thinking about the last "real" homecoming tailgate? As for GU day, I have a shirt that says GU Day 2001, so it occurred in the Spring of my senior year, at the very least...that said, I don't remember a thing about it other than maybe like a couple of bands and a moon bounce? Could this be right? As I said earlier, Georgetown Day? ehhh. The fact remains, Georgetown still hasn't been able to accept the inevitability that college kids will be looking for some place to drink and party...the only thing the administration has control over is where...I remember for like 4 Thursdays in 2000, Hoyas (bar in Leavey) was transformed into this awesome on-campus bar scene...then some bonehead threw a bottle of beer at someone's head and, goodbye Hoyas student bartender Thursdays... moral of the story = college kids are idiots Link to Post - Back to Top   Logged tlphoya Bulldog member is offline Joined: Dec 2007 Gender: Female Posts: 424 Re: Georgetown Day under threat « Reply #16 on Feb 10, 2009, 11:06am » I can also vouch that Block Party did exist.

There used to be not 1 but 2 Block Parties- the Fall Block Party was typically the Friday of Homecoming Weekend, followed by an actual tailgate with cars and kegs and grills on Saturday before the football game which Georgetown usually won. Very different days, my friends. Brasky's memory of an event in the lot in front of McDonough is possibly the new homecoming tailgate, but probably something else like the senior BBQ- I recall something approximating real tailgating even during the Gonzalez years, albeit on the baseball field and with no kegs (they were banned at some point during my undergrad years). The last Block Party was definitely spring of 2000, and the Dean of Students was still James Donahue at that point.
