DIWALI NIGHT, hosted by Malaysian Student Association
6 to 10 p.m. @ University Suites multipurpose room

Diwali is a major cultural event celebrated by Hindus, Jains, Sikhs and some Buddhists around the world in late October or early November. The five-day-long festival of lights marks new beginnings and the triumph of good over evil, and light over darkness, coinciding with the harvest season. Homes, shops, and buildings are brightly illuminated with candles and lamps; friends and family feast together and share gifts; and Lakshmi - the Hindu goddess of prosperity and wealth - is worshiped as the bringer of blessings for the new year.
