The event was put on by the college’s “premiere” student drag club, the “House of Lewan,” and reportedly attracted more than 100 students.
The House of Lewan “hopes to make drag accessible by hosting workshops and performing in shows,” according to an article written in the school newspaper The Dartmouth.
The club is the “first recognized drag club” on campus which includes “free, all-inclusive drag workshops.”
