Hark! The end of the semester draws near, noble scholars of GW! 

All students are cordially summoned to lay down their quills, step away from the grueling scrolls of final exams, and join the kingdom for our grandest annual tradition, Midnight Breakfast. 


Each year, Midnight Breakfast offers our students a well-deserved break from studying for final exams to celebrate the end of the semester. This year, we are taking a trip to the Renaissance Faire. Come feast, make merry, and refuel across six enchanted floors of Renaissance revelry.
