Recap: Rocky Horror Picture Show

On Saturday, October 14th IEEC attended the Rocky Picture show at the Phoenix Theater in Petaluma! It was an exciting and interactive show filled with fans from all over Sonoma County. Many dressed up for the occasion, and it was a great way to begin the Halloween festivities! The Rocky Horror Picture show is the longest-running theatrical release in film history. Our SSU students thoroughly enjoyed the event, and IEEC is excited to prepare more affairs over the semester! Make sure to follow us on Instagram @ssustudyaway to stay updated!

We had a great turnout for Coffee and Culture last Thursday! We focused on the National Student Exchange Program and had both alumni and students interested in going away, discussing financial aid, our favorite moments while abroad!
