Common Hour

Cabrini has restructured its scheduling to provide the opportunity for students, faculty, and staff to come together to focus on a shared purpose and Cabrini's mission.

This Common Hour—held every Wednesday throughout the academic year—will alternate between Community Common Hours, featuring programming for the entire Cabrini community, and Club Common Hours, set aside for students to use for club meetings.

A schedule of planned Common Hour events will be published in advance of the academic year and will be updated accordingly.

If you'd like to sponsor a Common Hour event, we request that you please complete the form at the bottom of this page. Fall submissions are officially closed.

Spring submissions will be accepted until November 1. Decisions will be communicated by December 1. When sending out announcements regarding approved events, please be sure they are branded as Common Hour events.
