Silent Headphone Disco
Residential Quad/rain site Anacon Hall
Under the stars! Launched in the UK in 2007, Headphone Disco are the originators of the ‘silent dance party’ format and have been taking their show to colleges, schools, festivals and nightclubs around the world for the past 10+ years. Never been to a Headphone Disco before?Here’s how it works:
- Arrive at the event and take a pair of our awesome wireless headphones.
- Two DJs set up and spin two different styles of music side by side. One DJ might be spinning top 40 while the other is spinning the latest in hip hop. To the same dancefloor. At the same time!
- Guests select their DJ of choice using a toggle switch on our headphones and get busy on the dancefloor.
- Guests can switch backwards and forwards between each DJ during the course of the event.
Now what have you got? One half of the dance floor moving to one beat, while the other half gets down to a completely different soundtrack.
Campus Bells Toll for 9/11 Remembrance
In honor of our country and in remembrance of all those who lost their lives, there will be a tolling of the University bells for two minutes at the following times:

- 9:03 am: AA Flight 175 was flown into the World Trade Center South Tower.
- 9:43 am: AA Flight 77 was flown into the Pentagon.
- 10:10 am: UA Flight 93 crashed in Somerset County, PA after heroic actions by passengers and crew.
Members of the Monmouth University community who are on campus are invited to observe a moment of silence at these times.
At noon the University bells will ring out our National Anthem.
