As the sun sets over the Homewood campus on Tuesday, Nov. 30, hundreds of flames will flicker across the MSE Library lawn as candle-bearing faculty, staff and students join President William R. Brody and his wife, Wendy, for the university's third annual Community of Lights Celebration.

The event begins at 4 p.m. with light refreshments and music by two student groups--the Octopodes, a cappella singers, and the Sixth Dimension, a jazz band--and concludes with the 4:45 p.m. illumination of the Homewood lights.

Guests are asked to bring a nonperishable food item for the university's neighbors at the soup kitchen of the Manna House. The celebration will be held regardless of weather conditions.
