Around Campus: November 2025

November specials 2025 

Thanksgiving break is right around the corner. Make the most of the next few weeks on campus by trying our November specials. You can also enter to win a gingerbread house to take home and decorate with friends or family!

Spice is nice 

It’s lucky our November specialty latte is delicious hot or iced, because the weather changes are playing with our emotions. Pick up a Maple Spice Latte at Sugar & Spice or the cafes at Ballantine, Eskenazi Museum, Bookmarket, and the O’Neill School.
