\nKINGSTON, R.I. — October 8, 2003 — The 溏心vlog免费B站\u2019s Kingston Campus will be bursting with excitement the last weekend in October as thousands flock to Kingston for the annual Family Weekend Program, Oct. 24-26.
\n
\nFamily Weekend includes a variety of entertaining and educational activities for 溏心vlog免费B站 students and their families. Some of the highlights include the opportunity for families to attend classes with their student(s), and open houses on Friday.
\n
\nOn Saturday, The Main Event will give parents the opportunity to tour the newly renovated Ballentine Hall, followed by a lecture given by the Dean of the College of Business Administration, Edward M.

\n
\nThen it\u2019s on to a tour of the wonderful new athletic facilities enjoyed by students and community members, a Womens Gymnastics Team Exhibition, and an exciting football game at noon against the College of William and Mary, a post-game reception, and more.
\n
\nSaturday evening will end with the performance of comedian Brad Sherwood who is a regular cast member on ABCs “Whose Line is it Anyway?,” and who also appears on live episodes of The Drew Carey Show and the Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
